Samie Elishi and Bec Zacharias Secret Friendship Revealed

Love Island star and Married At First Sight's Bec Zacharia knew each other long before they soared to fame. 

Eagle-eyed social media users unearthed throwback pictures of the duo when they worked together in London in 2018 and 2019 as they posed together at a conference while also posing for a black and white selfie on Bec's account. 

The Australian reality star has caused ructions in the current series of Married At First Sight Australia, while Samie walked away victorious in in February, having first appeared on the show in 2023 and later in 2025.

user sophi3fox shared a video showing a number of pictures of the duo with likes and comments, including professions of love. 

The social media user did however point out that Samie no longer follows Bec, who has thus far become the series villain thanks to her many spats. 

Bec and Samie appeared to have worked together when the former lived in the UK, with one of the shots showing them with fellow colleagues. 

Delighted followers replied saying: 'Genuinely can’t believe my eyes rn... Two people I would never put together... omg this is so weird lol they come from 2 completely different worlds... When worlds collide... birds of a feather and all that.' 

The discovery comes shortly after Samie and former Islander Tyrique Hyde confirmed their romance as they shared loved-up snaps on their first holiday together in Morocco.

The new couple landed in Agadir, Morocco, on Wednesday, where they are spending some quality time together and are testing their new connection.

In February, Samie, 26, won Love Island: All Stars series three with Ciaran Davies, 23, but the pair split just three weeks after winning the £50,000 prize money.

The influencer, who first appeared on the ninth season of Love Island in 2023, has since been growing close to fellow alum Tyrique, 26, from season ten.

Now the new couple have shared a glimpse into their relationship as they enjoyed going on a jet ski ride during their sun-soaked getaway.

Taking to TikTok to share a short clip, Tyrique sat behind Samie on the jet ski as the pair cosied up wearing matching life jackets on the ride. The reality stars later worked on their tans as Tyrique snapped a photo of Samie relaxing on a sun lounger.

Showing off her jaw-dropping figure, Samie took to Instagram to share a sizzling bikini snap as she modelled a pink two-piece under a green crop top and skirt.

Just hours before their flight to Morocco, Samie celebrated becoming W7 Cosmetics' new brand ambassador with a private dinner at The Ivy Asia in London, and told the intimate group about her holiday plans.

One source told the Daily Mail: 'Samie was very excited for the trip and told the group about their plans. Everything is falling into place for her with work and her love life.

'She isn't listening to outside noise about her new connection and is just seeing where it goes.'

Tyrique initially found love with Ella Thomas when they competed on the tenth series of the hit ITV2 dating competition, but they split up in early 2024.

In recent weeks, Samie has been on a string of dates with Tyrique, with their romance 'blossoming' more every day.

Tyrique is said to be 'mad about her' and thrilled to have finally got Samie after publicly pursuing her online. Long before rumours of their romance surfaced, the streamer had made no secret of his attraction.

In an online clip just months before Samie entered the villa, when asked hypothetically who he would most like to share a bed with, Tyrique didn't hesitate: 'Samie, she's very good looking.'

Then, days before the latest All Stars season started, he admitted: 'I rate Samie. She's a good-looking girl. I've seen her in real life and I have been around her at events and she is so cool.'
