‘Aren’t you married?’ Adam Thomas backlash as he gushes over Zara McDermott in low-cut dress

'Why would he comment?!'

Adam Thomas has faced backlash for gushing over Zara McDermott’s latest Instagram post, despite being happily married.

The Waterloo Road star, who recently won I’m A Celebrity South Africa, tied the knot to professional dancer Caroline Daly in 2017. They share two children — son Teddy, 11, and a daughter, Elsie-Rose, seven.

Zara, on the other hand, is currently dating former One Direction singer Louis Tomlinson. They began dating in early 2025.

She paired the look with open-toe shoes and accessorised her decolletage with a jewelled necklace.

Zara opted for matching dangling earrings and sported her brunette locks down in waves.

“A DREAMY CANNES MOMENT with @lorealparis,” the former Strictly contestant wrote in her caption.
