The unlucky-in-love star went on to enjoy another on/off romance with blonde beauty Sophie in May 2018.
They struck up a romance before they left Croatia, but were apart ahead of the trip, with Sam taking a trip to Vegas on a stag do.
There, he evidently hit it off with another girl - American Diana Larionov - but kept it from Habbs; until Jamie Laing jetted Diana out to Croatia in an attempt to get back at Harry Baron, accidentally ousting Sam's indiscretions in the process.

Habbs eventually forgave Sam, but by the time season 16 came around, back in London, she discovered he had kissed a further two women, since their reconciliation.
She then tried moving on with new boy Tristan Phipps, set up by Olivia Bentley, but Sam was persistent in his efforts and won her back, shortly before they split for good over the Christmas period.
