It has been revealed that Zara McDermott has purchased her own property, which is located just off the corner of the home they shared earlier this year.

Sam, 32, and Zara, 28, who rose to fame after playing the lead in Love Island, shared a West London mansion with Louise, Sam’s famous sister, and their partner.

Before the couple split, they posted updates on their home improvement projects on their Instagram account, @thethompsonproject. It has 137, 000 followers, many of whom were interested in learning more about how the couple designed their home, set up each room, and incorporated their personalities into their daily lives.

The couple’s “set up of dreams” was the couple’s favorite room in their home, which they referred to as “the set up of dreams.” The back of the room had fluffy stools, drink shelves, and contemporary hanging lights, as well as a plush carpet and cozy sofa.

The large bathtub, which they called “perfection,” had walk-in showers, marble-effect lighting, and a large bathtub.

The couple added lavender, faux grass, and a neutral patio with grey and white sun loungers along the perimeter. We have never imagined having a garden this beautiful because we adore the garden so much.

Sam’s room had shelving, a desk, and a wall-mounted TV in addition to the property. Sam spent a lot of time in the space, so Zarag said it was crucial for them to make it “feel beautiful” as well as masculine.

She noted on Instagram that the desk, the centerpiece, “fell beautifully luxurious, heavy duty, and gives a slight industrial feel,” while adding that the antique bronze on the wall panels and switches also look great together.

A ” snug area ” with a large L-shaped cream sofa and statement art on the walls, was also present. The lounge had a large TV on the wall and cozy furniture.

A round table with six seats for hosting was located in the dining room. We requested a round table because we believed it would fit the space, and this one complements our color scheme perfectly. She claimed that because all of the home’s light switches and sockets were bronze, the base had an antique bronze detail that matched the rest.

According to a source, Zara reportedly purchased her new home for £500,000. They claimed that she purchased the two-bedroom apartment under her business name two weeks ago, which is located in a desirable neighborhood and, strangely, close to where she shared a room with Sam. However, it will be very awkward when they cross paths at a coffee shop or a neighborhood pub.

Chantelle Houghton has revealed exclusively why she is still single years after her highly publicized relationships, revealing that her decision was largely driven by her circumstances as a single mother.

The 41-year-old former Big Brother contestant has spoken to New! that she no longer feels the need to be in a relationship despite not being opposed to finding love because she has spent so much time alone.

“I don’t have a love life,” I say! Due to the circumstances I was in, she admitted, “I’ve been single for a long, long time.” “I wasn’t forced, but I did have a lot of my time by myself while looking after my young daughter.”

Dolly, 12, and her 12-year-old daughter Dolly are in a relationship for the love of their lives, Chantelle said. She continued, “I’ve always said that I prefer to be sitting on the sofa alone than with someone who is lonely.” Nothing worse than being in a relationship and feeling alone and unhappy.

“I’ve had enough time on my own that I’m alright,” he said. She said, “I don’t need to feel whole with someone.” I’m happy on my own because I’m not trying to find happiness with anyone else. They’re just going to make me smile more when I meet them.

Sally Gunnell, the OBE, has opened up about a friend’s sudden death. Despite not having any prior symptoms, the Olympic gold medalist was suddenly hit by a “massive heart attack.”

The 61-year-old had a lifelong love of sports, always working out in the gym and cycling, while keeping his alcohol intake to a minimum. However, his arteries were blocked by a small piece of plaque, which caused him to pass away instantly.

In an exclusive interview with the Mirror, Sally said, “He died just instantly, and that was it.” Nothing was there. No admonition. He probably had left his bike a few days earlier.

Sally continued, “He was an athlete for many years, had always maintained his health and fitness, but I guess you don’t know how much stress they go through and what else is happening in their lives.”

“But you know, he was always working out, staying in shape, never drinking excessive amounts of alcohol, really. And I believe it was merely a shock, I suppose.

The tragic fact that, according to British Heart Foundation statistics, heart attacks continue to be the leading cause of death globally for both men and women, underscores the grim reality.

One heart attack occurs every five minutes in the UK, equaling roughly one hundred and one thousand per year. Around 20% to 60% of cases, according to the Cleveland Clinic, are completely ” silent “, describing often painless events without any prior symptoms.

Sally and her husband, John, were completely moved by their friend’s passing because their lifestyles mirrored one another’s. In light of this, Bluecrest Wellness and they made the decision to have a health checkup. Blood tests, an ECG, and other assessments were included in this time, which spanned 30 to 45 minutes.

Sally’s iron levels were a little low, but her “metabolic age” was 42, which is an impressive 15 years younger than her actual age of 57. However, the picture didn’t quite work out for John because of early signs of plaque buildup and high cholesterol.

Their friend’s symptom before his fatal heart attack was plaque buildup, which was particularly alarming. Sally continued, “I think John was a little in denial because we both know and love to exercise, and we both do so.

He said, “Oh, I’m not going to do anything that’s fine, we’ll just carry on,” which is a “kind of] scenario where I panicked and said, “Well, hang on a minute, I can’t just ignore this.”

The pair has collaborated to alter their outcomes now that they have moved forward. Sally had to reduce her red meat intake to combat those high iron levels.

In the meantime, John is taking statins to lower his low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and the pair continue to exercise less strenuously called “Zone Two.” In the upcoming months, they will need a second checkup.

“It’s very simple to bury your head, and I sometimes feel like, “Do I really want to know?” Sally responded. “And of course, we do really because, as you know, I’ve always said, I’d rather prevent things if we leave it too late,” he said. Before it’s too late, I’d prefer to make changes in my life.

Sally, 58, continued, “When you hear about Davina [McCall] and Sir Chris Hoy uncovering these terrible health conditions, it really brings out the value of facing up to it, knowing your numbers, and understanding your risks, without being scared.”
