Sam, who is the nephew of reality TV queen , opened up about his heartbreaking diagnosis.
Now his fiancee Alice has given an update in a new TikTok video uploaded today.
Speaking to fans, she said: “So I don’t know who watched last night’s episode of Made in Chelsea, but I can’t deal with watching myself back… but I did watch last night’s one, which is obviously a very emotional time for Sam.
“So I watched it and Sam telling Ollie and Tabs,( just couldn’t deal, really made me cry.”
Sam was born with liver disease, but it laid dormant in his body until he was taken ill last December.
Speaking to icon Ollie Locke in Monday’s episode of the hit show, he opened up about his health battle.
Sam said: “There is no hope of my liver getting better and he said, ‘I wouldn’t be having this call with you if I thought you could make it through the next four or five years’.
“They’re sending me for liver transplant assessment, so yeah.”
Ollie asked Sam how he was feeling, to which he said: “The way I look at it is I’m healthy now, hopefully I will remain healthy all the way up until I’ll get a call and go in for surgery and then I wake up and I’ll be healthier.”
The star then said other people will be “higher up on the list”, adding that he’s unsure when his transplant will happen.
After the epsiode aired, the tweeted: “You may have seen in tonight’s episode of #madeinchelsea, that one of the cast members Sam Vanderpump needs an organ transplant.
“Our thoughts are with Sam and his family as they face this news. We hope that his courage in speaking out will offer inspiration to others.”
The account went on: “Sadly, thousands of people are currently waiting for a life-saving transplant because not enough people agree to donate their organs.
“If you want to be an organ donor and save lives after your death, please confirm your decision on the NHS Organ Donor Register and ensure your loved ones know and support your decision.”
Sam revealed earlier this year that he “nearly died” after suffering from liver and kidney failure which later led to life-threatening sepsis.
He was rushed to Chelsea and Westminster Hospital last December with the flu when he was told his liver and kidneys had stopped working.
“I thought I was going to die,” he said at the time.
“I didn’t think my body could cope and that was the scariest thing. It was terrifying.”

He added: “I remember the doctor saying to me that I was going into liver and kidney failure. I burst into tears.
“My mum didn’t react badly, you would expect her to be in complete meltdown, but she didn’t want to scare me.
“The words they used for the function of my liver were ‘deranged’ and ‘demonic’.
“You don’t feel your organs normally but when they stop working and because my liver and kidneys weren’t working my heart was in overdrive, my pancreas was struggling, my spleen wasn’t well…
“And you can feel all this pain and uncomfortableness, I was really, really fighting to keep myself alive. I didn’t think I was going to survive or see the outside of the hospital again.
“You never think the flu will lead to you being in a hospital bed and nearly dying.
“They told my mum that if I had got to hospital 24-48 hours later, I wouldn’t have made it. By calling the ambulance, my girlfriend literally saved my life.”
Sam Vanderpump is engaged to be married to Alice Yaxley
