What’s Going On Between Brett Oppenheim & Tattoo Artist Samantha Abdul

Brett’s night out with Samantha—who’s worked at tattoo studios in Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands—comes more than seven months after his split with Tina Louise. In December, the realtor confirmed in an Instagram Q&A that he was “single” less than a year after becoming official with the model and restauranteur.

“I am grateful for you Tina. For your love, your laugh, your smile, and for our enduring friendship,” he later added in an Instagram post. “Tina is the most genuine… loving…beautiful woman I could have ever dreamed of…with the most breathtaking smile. I will always love her and be her friend.”

As for Tina? Shortly after assuring fans that she and Brett “remain very good friends” following their breakup, the Sugar Taco co-owner left a comment on Brett’s post letting him know that the feeling was mutual.

“Awwww you lil s–t!” she quipped. “Love you always x.”
