We all remember this, don’t we?
Out of nowhere, in November 2021, this whole thing appeared and for days everyone was trying to figure out who the new narrative of this little shitshow was about.
A few days later, with the list of possibilities making the rounds in the fandom (people literally checking the blondes Sam had recently followed on Instagram), Anna posted this story… removing any remaining doubt that yes, it was her.
By the end of November (I think around the 26th or 28th), she posted this.
And then this one as well, a few days apart, but still very much happening at the same time.
Then she showed where her flight was headed.
On the same day as Anna’s stories, later that night, this happened: a fan ran into Sam and said he was leaving a restaurant… alone.
And then we got this little "gem"
Late the following night, videos from what people called “the night of a thousand dates” started coming out - dinner at the counter of a restaurant where there was a birthday celebration happening.
They were sitting right in front of the birthday table.
Then they moved to another restaurant… where, again, there was a birthday party at the table right in front of them. At that table was a very famous fashion photographer (I can’t recall her name right now, who had some connection to that magazine Cait posed for during the pandemic, at Sam’s old house.)
Anna kept posting stories and tagging the locations, so everyone was basically watching it unfold in real time.
Another story that clearly shows Anna on the “date.”
And Sam, already at a third location, I think it was a nightclub opening.
After that, Anna started posting a few touristy stories around Paris.
And by the end of the day, out of nowhere… guess what??
Up to this day, we have never seen even half a photo or video from that Belfast event.
That was a Saturday, and on Sunday there was another Belfast related event in London.
Sam and Anna were supposedly enjoying Paris together… but this time, no photos.
By the end of Sunday (probably already very late in Europe), this fan photo appeared. The girl said he was alone and asked if she wanted a picture.
So… bringing back this entire timeline just to say: a pap walk might show up, sure - but things don’t always happen the way they’re later presented.
Sometimes what we actually see in real time and what gets curated and fed back to the public later are two very different stories.
