Posting a sassy video of herself miming along to Destiny’s Child banger So Good (circa their debut 1999 album, The Writing’s on the Wall, natch) Samira can be seen sporting a curly blonde afro and she looks, well, so good.

Samira has been on quite the journey since her turn in the Love Island villa, splitting from co-star Frankie Foster just weeks after leaving amid cheating allegations.

But it’s fair to say the platform certainly launched a killer career, with Samira joining Wes Nelson, Zara McDermott and Eyal Booker for X Factor: Celebrity in 2019 as No Love Lost.

The same year, Samira underwent an operation to have a lump on her breast removed.

Speaking to Metro.co.uk at the time, she revealed she first found the lump when she was just 19, saying, “It was really dramatic, I immediately thought I had breast cancer. You Google, Wikipedia, and think you’re going to die.

“It did play on my mind, because you’d be drying off after the shower and feel this lump and think, something is not right. Or I’d be ill and in my head I’d connect it to the lump.

“I found it when I was 19 and I checked back then and they said ‘you’re young, that kind of thing happens’ and I left it. It got bigger, the doctor says it’s three centimetres now, which is quite big, and I don’t have massive boobs, so it’s not like it’s hidden.

“I’m self-conscious and if someone touches it it’s a bit tender; it’s uncomfortable when I lie on my stomach.”
