Celebs Go Dating fan favourite Sam Thompson faced a backlash on social media after making a terrible choice of judgement in the series grand finale.
The 20-episode E4 show had been leading up to one moment, where each celebrity picks one date to join them on a romantic getaway in Cape Verde.
However, Made In Chelsea star Sam ended up taking two dates to Cape Verde. He kissed them both and still hasn’t told either of the girls which one he prefers.
It’s the love triangle of the reality TV century.

As all of the Celebs Go Dating crew relaxed on the beaches of Western Africa, Sam was tasked with meeting both of his dates, and to tell them that they weren’t the only ones jetted in for a romantic holiday.

Fans watched in agony as both Tammy and Emelia rocked up Cape Verde, blissfully unaware that the other existed.
It was up to Sam to break the news.
Yup… We’d be a little worried too @SamThompsonUK Brace yourself…😬 #CelebsGoDating pic.twitter.com/4mqTKDZCDL

Armed with the advice of the boys, Sam approached date one Tammy.
Things didn’t go well.
Tammy retaliated to the news by saying “well that’s not ideal” but seemed to remain pretty calm about the whole situation despite walking away exclaiming “what sort of bullsh*t is this”.
Watching Sam really makes you realise that even good guys are dicks #CelebsGoDating

Date two reacted even worse.
All eyes were on Emilia as she arrived dressed in her best bikini and orange flowing kimono type thing.

Sam took her to one side and explained that “there was another girl’ who “he’s been on a date with”. At this point, however, the other date Tammy was suddenly brought into the equation.
Cue the awkwardness . . .

The scene ended with Sam agreeing to take both dates out for one last rendezvous.
Patiently waiting for his dates to arrive, the MIC man was in a pool of sweaty tension, as you can see.
Gross but we'd totally be feeling like that too in your sitch @SamThompsonUK 😱 #CelebsGoDating pic.twitter.com/elYGjjU2Dx

In fact, he even asked the waiter for some advice:

However, the smooth operator managed to woo over both of his dates and even ended up digging himself a deeper hole that he may never save himself from.
Here’s Sam kissing Emilia at the end of their date.

And here he is kissing Tammy, on the exact same bar stool, at the end of their date.

Yup. If he hadn’t already led the two on by inviting them both on holiday, now Sam has really put himself in a pickle.
I’m sorry Sam I’ve liked you all the way through but you are been an absolute MUG! #CelebsGoDating

You’ll have to tune in to tomorrow night’s final episode (E4, 9pm) to find out who Sam chooses for the grand final day . . . and what the hell the ditched date does for the rest of the day!
