Sam Thompson enjoyed a romantic date night with his new girlfriend Talitha Balinska to watch the new Avatar film on Tuesday at the Everyman Cinema in London.
The Made In Chelsea star, 33, looked loved-up as he was pictured leaving the Chelsea venue with Talitha, placing his hand on her back.
He sported a casual look in a brown fleece jacket over a grey T-shirt and black jeans, which the star completed with New Balance trainers.
Meanwhile Talitha, 25, looked incredible in a brown striped jacket and trousers co-ord as she paired the stylish outfit with gold hoops and grey trainers while carrying a jacket of the same colour.
The pair went public with their romance earlier this month after being set up by Sam’s friend and business partner, Reza Amiri-Garroussi.

Taking to his Instagram Stories, Sam revealed the pair headed out for a movie night to watch Avatar 3.Â
The loved-up couple tucked into red wine and a hot dog as they settled in for the screening.
Afterwards, Sam shared his verdict on the film, writing: ‘Scores are in for Avatar… 8/10! The world-building is just so good. Storyline dragged a tiny bit, but it doesn’t matter when you’re in Pandora!!
‘I’m biased because I love getting lost in a new world, but I LOVED IT!!
‘PS… Everyman cinema is so good!!! Although nothing tops a good VUE post-Nando’s.’
It came as Sam also revealed that he needed therapy after he split from Zara McDermott at the end of last year.
Zara and Sam dated for around five years – with the pair going official in May 2019 and later splitting in December 2024.
While Sam was in a relationship with Zara at the time, he recently reconnected with Talitha after she was invited as a surprise guest to his live show at the O2 Arena and, as one source told the Daily Mail, ‘the rest is history’.

And speaking to best pal Pete on an episode of their Staying Relevant podcast, the TV personality revealed he was officially off the market once again.
He excitedly declared: ‘I’ve got a girlfriend. I’ve got a girlfriend!’ as Pete quipped: ‘We’ve lost him again to the dark powers of a woman.’
When probed about the details of the moment he asked Talitha the important question, Sam insisted: ‘Mate, it was just super relaxed. It was so boring really, but that’s kind of how I wanted it to be.
‘We just went for dinner and I was like, “I really like you”. And I just went “I’d love to be your boyfriend”. I don’t know why I’m panicking more now!’
He went on: ‘Yeah, I just said, “Look, I really, really like you and you make me feel really… comfortable. I feel like I can be myself around you. I don’t want to be dating anyone else.Â
‘I’m 33, I wouldn’t be dating someone this amount of time if I didn’t think it had legs to last. So will you be my girlfriend?” And she said “yes”. And so I said, “great.”‘
Pete was quick to congratulate his pal and point out how far he’d come in a year, after last Christmas marked the breakdown of Sam’s five-year romance with Zara.
He said: ‘Listen we’re all very proud of you and we’re pleased that the year has taken a full circle’, as Sam echoed: ‘Christmas is back on! I’m happy.’

And in a sign of how well their relationship is blossoming already, Sam showed how close Talitha has already become with his family, as he revealed he was planning on taking her skiing with his sister Louise Thompson and her fiancé Ryan Libbey in the New Year.
Made In Chelsea star Louise, 35, appeared to give her seal of approval to her brother’s new girlfriend in October, as she shared a snap of Talitha and Sam roasting marshmallows with her and her son Leo, four.
But when Pete asked if he had any plans to go Instagram official with Talitha, Sam let slip a slight dig at his ex-girlfriend, saying: ‘I don’t think there’s any need for it.’
As Pete clarified: ‘I just want to confirm that there won’t be a picture of the cats, you and Peep [Talitha] in Christmas pyjamas in Santa’s grotto?’
Sam and Zara frequently shared Instagram content together throughout their relationship, and one Christmas donned matching festive pyjamas and posed with their pet cats, Albus and Cedric, in front of the tree.
However, Sam was quick to insist to Pete that he had no intentions of doing the same with Talitha, saying: ‘I’ve done that before and I want to do a complete opposite of that this time…’
