Sam Thompson has revealed details of his “feud” with Adam Collard.
The Made in Chelsea star is currently dating Zara McDermott, who struck up a romance with Adam during their time together on Love Island back in 2018.
Adam, who is appearing on the current series of E4’s Celebs Go Dating, recently named Sam as the celebrity he “hated the most” – and Sam later took a swipe back.
Speaking to his co-host Pete Wicks on their Staying Relevant podcast, Sam said: “I was absolutely livid, we haven’t even met.”
“Do you know what, I’m finally someone else’s nemesis and it’s f**king Adam Collard.”
“I would like to be someone’s nemesis that I could be like, oh that’s f**king cool.”
“I don’t think he dislikes me. I think he probably likes me a lot.”
“He strikes me as someone who knows his bread and butter, and he knows this will create some sort of chatter,” Sam continued.
When Pete asked whether he had ever used his platform to “slag off” Adam, the Made in Chelsea star admitted: “No! I’m going to slag him off now.”
“I was so excited for him to go [back] on Love Island because I used to really like him when he was on Love Island. He was an absolute tyrant. He used to go on there and click his fingers and ruin relationships. He was brilliant.”
“But he then went on last year. And I’m happy to say this as a fan, I was bitterly… You know someone who has been out of the limelight for a while?”
“He probably needs to do a couple more PAs or he needs to make a bit more money so he’s gone back in,” Sam continued. “He was so f**king boring.”
In a new interview with The UK Mirror the Made in Chelsea star revealed Adam had contacted him to explain the reason he took a swipe at him.
“[Adam] actually messaged me, bless him, because I put up on my Instagram that we’re talking about it on the podcast and he basically said, ‘It definitely wasn’t like that – it was just a bit a bit of fun,'” Sam told the publication.
“I kind of knew it would be something like that as he seems like decent enough bloke,” Sam explained.
“You know, these shows always try and get a little bit of a little bit of press behind them with stuff like that.”
“He actually said it was like they’d already printed it on the on the card and he was like ‘oh sweet’ so I think he I think he actually got told to say that.”
