Sam Thompson has revealed that he and model Talitha Balinska are "super relaxed" about their relationship and aren't officially boyfriend and girlfriend yet. The former Made in Chelsea star, who 'hard-launched' his romance with the producer and DJ earlier this month, revealed to Pete Wicks on their Staying Relevant podcast that they haven't spoken about becoming official. "There's not been any chat about that. There's no pressure, and that is the beauty of it. There's no pressure, there's no time frame," Sam told Pete, before joking, "The worst part about this is, if she sees this, I could get canned next week!" He continued, "Mate, I don't know, everything is just super relaxed, you know what it is like with dating. We are just enjoying it." The King of the Jungle admitted that he doesn't know how to ask someone to be his girlfriend because he hasn't had to do it for a long time, as he was in a relationship with Zara McDermott for five years until they split in December last year. "Realistically, if I were to ever ask anyone out, I wouldn't even know how to do it. I would panic. I haven't asked someone out in years," he said. According to reports, Sam and Talitha first met in 2023 when she appeared in a campaign for his and Reza Amiri-Garroussi's sunglasses brand Dinelli. They reportedly reconnected after Talitha attended the Staying Relevant live show at London's O2 Arena in September. The model, who is the sister of actress Ella Balinska, has already met Sam's sister Louise, her fiancé Ryan, and their son Leo. Former TOWIE star Pete joked that he was on "the edge of (his) seat" waiting to meet her after declining an invitation to join Sam, Talitha and their friends on a recent double date. The TV personality explained on a previous podcast episode that he would be "terrified" to introduce Talitha to Pete. "It's because you mean the most to me. If you didn't like someone I was dating, I genuinely don't think I would be able to do," he shared.
