A gold suitcase was also found after police launched an appeal to help find the item, which they believe could further the investigation.
A 30-year-old man from Southsea was arrested on suspicion of murder while a 41-year-old man from Portsmouth was arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender.
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary also announced that a gold suitcase had been found after they launched an appeal to help locate it.
The two men remain in police custody.
Two 32-year-old men previously arrested on suspicion of murder have been released on conditional bail until September 5.
The police unit’s Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Chief Inspector Jody Beresford said: “We understand that this incident is both shocking and devastating to all those who knew Samantha, and we are working tirelessly to establish the full circumstances.
“We would like to thank the community for their patience and understanding whilst we have been carrying out enquiries in the area.
“As part of our enquiries, we appealed for help in locating a gold suitcase. We can confirm this has now been found and we would like to thank everyone who contacted us with information.”
