I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! contestant Sam Thompson has admitted he feels he “might be too old” to return to Made In Chelsea at this point in his career, but also teased he wouldn’t rule it out either.

In a wider chat about his work with Boots, which sees him present The Locker Room series in a bid to get more men talking about their mental health, the TV personality spoke about his strong connection to the Channel 4 show.

The Love Island podcast host can often be seen making hilarious TikTok and Instagram videos with his Strictly star girlfriend Zara McDermott, whom he also introduced to his friends on the series.

Quizzed on whether he and Zara might return, the former Celebrity Big Brother star spoke candidly about a possible comeback in an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk.

Sam, who starred on the Channel 4 show from 2013 to 2021 with his sister Louise Thompson, said: “I’ll tell you what: I absolutely love Made In Chelsea. I’m a huge fan of it.

“I’m never one of those people who subscribe to thinking: ‘Oh, I’ve left that now. Screw them.’

“I think they’re great,” he continued. “I think what they produce is brilliant TV and I watch every single series.

Sam then admitted: “I think the series we are watching now are better than any that I’ve been on; they are so dramatic – wow.

“But saying all that, I think that my time has come and gone,” Sam confessed. “You never say never, but I think I’m too old.

“Obviously, I don’t think I’m like super old,” the 31-year-old added, “But I think you’ve got to be in a certain place in your life.

“I genuinely believe that sometimes you just know your time has come and you’re like, ‘Hey man, that was an amazing part of my life.’

“So never say never because you never know,” he reiterated. “But for now, I’m just very happy watching it and I think they’ve done such good things with the show. It goes from strength to strength.

He then quipped: “Let me tell you something: Anytime anything kicks off, I message the producer and I’m just like, ‘Oh my god – no way!’
