Lash technician-turned-reality star Elma Pazar became known for her flirty one-liners on Love Island 2019 – and life, she admits, has been non-stop ever since. Elma had a second shot at love in the All Stars series earlier this year, and is now back on TOWIE after joining the show in 2022.
She talks exclusively to OK! embracing reality TV chaos, relationship bliss with boyfriend Sammy Root, 24, and flatmate life with bestie and co-star Courtney Green. Glam yet down-to-earth, the 32-year-old Essex favourite opens up to us about fame, romance, taking on I’m A Celeb and finding her happy place – right back where it all began…
Elma, it’s lovely to see you back on TOWIE. How was it?
We had so much fun coming back – it was unreal. It honestly felt like coming home. I missed everyone, and they were all so supportive.
Before you went into Love Island, Sammy was already on the show. Did you have feelings for him back then or were you playing it cool?
