The Sun revealed how the pair split after she accused him of not prioritising their relationship, according to friends.
A friend of the couple told The Sun: "Zara never felt like she was the priority with Sam. He always seemed to find someone or something to put before her."
Pals say they were torn further apart as they clashed about their future plans - as Sam’s “immature” personality pushed him into the friendzone.
It led to them spending Christmas apart before calling off their relationship for good.

"Sam is very childish - it’s even become a part of his ‘showbiz persona’ - but Zara feels as though she’s getting older and wants to start being taken more seriously.
“She knows she’ll want to start a family soon, but Sam thinks they’re both way too young and should focus on their careers.”
Meanwhile, Zara appeared to confirm she had moved out of the home once shared by her and Sam.
The bed, shower and rooms she posted in a recent TikTok were all different from her usual content.
One fan said: "House does not look like theirs. Someone is bound to say it so yes I said it. I hope they are both ok honestly."
Another said: "It’s clearly not their house, this is the house that she bought in Essex I believe."
