Speaking on his Staying Relevant podcast with best mate Pete Wicks, Sam shared an update on his love life.
He said: “I’m going to work on myself, no dating. I’m not ready. I realised that.”
The Sun exclusively revealed Sam and Samie decided to go their separate ways weeks after first being spotted together on a cosy date.
A source close to the former couple said: “It was a mutual thing and there is no bad blood between them.
“They both just have really busy schedules, particularly Sam who has been non-stop recently, and it was really hard to make it work. They’re still good mates.
“It’s a shame but sometimes things just don’t work out.”
Sam and Samie confirmed they were dating in early May when they were spotted sharing a steamy kiss on a night out.
Sam was pictured snogging Samie and holding her face as they smooched outside Olivia Attwood’s 34th birthday bash.
They were also snapped walking arm in arm afterwards and he tenderly placed a hand on her waist.
While the pair didn’t share their relationship on social media, Sam did praise Samie on his podcast.
Grilled by his best mate Pete, he was relatively tight-lipped but said: “What I will say though, really awesome chick. You met her that night.
“Really, really lovely. Super down to earth, super nice, beautiful, obviously.”
Sam’s romance with Samie followed his split from long-term girlfriend Zara McDermott.
The pair had been together for five years before breaking up at the start of this year.
A source close to the couple told MailOnline at the time: “Sam and Zara have ended their relationship.
“It’s been an incredibly difficult decision for them to part ways, they still care and have a lot of love for each other.
“But after a tough year of working hard at their romance, they have split and will be focusing on their individual careers going forward into 2025.
“There has been no scandal or fallout between them, it’s just the result of a difficult year, where they both had to spend a lot of time focused on their own projects.”
Zara has since moved on to a new relationship with former One Direction star Louis Tomlinson.
