Sam Thompson and Zara McDermott have a VERY good Love Island fire pit theory 👀
Zara was on the show in 2018
Last updated 27th Jun 2022
Part of the huge success of ITV2 show Love Island is the interaction between fans during the show. Whether it be celebs or former Islanders sharing live videos whilst watching the episodes, or the absolute iconic tweets from viewers, sitting on social media during the breaks is just as entertaining as the villa drama.
And one celebrity in particular who has really been getting invested during the 2022 series is former Made In Chelsea star Sam Thompson.
Sam, who is dating former Islander Zara McDermott, often videos himself reacting to the biggest moments on the show, as well as posting videos alongside Zara on TikTok.
But in his latest video, Sam believes he's unearthed a theory that Islanders know if they are about to be dumped, from the order producers tell them to stand in around the fire pit.
Filming himself speaking to Zara, Sam asks: "Do you get told how to stand around the fire pit?"
Zara replies: "You get told what order to stand in, yeah."
With an huge smile on his face, Sam then says: "What do you mean? Does that mean you know who is gonna go?", to which Zara says: "Looking back now I'm like oh I get why that happened. I don't think you'd ever stand a vulnerable Islander next to one who is not vulnerable."
Trying to prove his theory, Sam asked Zara who she was stood next to when she was given the boot from the villa back in 2018, to which she said: "Jack and Dani", who of course went on to win the show.
Concluding, Sam said: "So anyone who is stood next to Gemma, basically, they are going! What an insight!"
Of course, we will have to wait until the next dumping to see if Sam's theory works out, and it most likely won't be long as bombshells Antigoni Buxton and Charlie Radnedge entered this week.
