EXCLUSIVE Love Island: All Stars couple SPLIT four months after reaching the show's final over huge rows filming TOWIE
Love Island: All Stars couple Sammy Root and Elma Pazar have split, MailOnline can reveal. The TOWIE pair, who reached the ITV2 final in February, recently called it quits, leaving just one romance formed on the latest All Stars still going strong. MailOnline understands that Sammy and Elma ended their four-month relationship over rows which took place in Portugal during filming of the latest TOWIE series. Their flirtation began on the ITVBe show but Elma, 32, insisted ahead of returning to Love Island in January that a romance between her and Sammy, 24, would be off the cards after she admitted to falling into the 'habit of going back to the same people.' Despite their eight-year age difference, the couple reconnected on All Stars and reached the final, missing out on the £50,000 prize fund to Gabby Allen and Casey O'Gorman, who also split earlier this year. Following recent breakups from Harriett Blackmore and Ronnie Vint, as well as Ekin-Su and Curtis Pritchard, the last remaining couple from this year's All Stars series is Grace Jackson and Luca Bish.

Viewers will get to see their break-up and the aftermath play out on screen, including how they navigate their relationship going forward. An insider told The Sun "Elma and Sammy aren't together right now, but there is a lot of love still between them. "It's not a straightforward split, viewers will see how Elma and Sammy navigate their feelings on Towie, as they discuss their issues to see whether they can make their relationship work going forward. "They have a strong connection with each other and nobody really knows what will happen with them over the coming weeks." The insider said that the pair, who are currently filming the new series of Towie, will have many heart-to-hearts on camera that will reveal the reasons behind their break-up. They added: "Throughout the series their story features some of the rawest and emotional reality ever shot for TOWIE." At the end of last series, Elma and Sammy were greeted by cheers from their Towie co-stars as they made their return to the show. The couple took a break from filming Towie while starring on Love Island All Stars. At the time, Elma revealed why she thought her relationship with Sammy was going to last after leaving the villa.

Love Island's Sammy Root reveals bombshells get major clue before villa entry
Love Island's Sammy Root reveals bombshells get major clue before villa entry Love Island star Sammy Root won the show back in 2023 and then returned for All Stars Elma and Sammy are still going strong (Image: Ricardo De Leca/ITV/Shutterstock ) Love Island sensation Sammy Root has spilled the beans on what it's like to be the villa's bombshell. Sammy, who clinched the ITV title in 2023 and bagged £50,000 with Jess Harding, made his entrance as a bombshell in the first week, charming both Jess and the viewers at home. ITV enthusiasts might remember Sammy's return in Love Island: All Stars earlier this year. Although he didn't win this time around, he struck up a romance with Elma Pazar, whom he later told OK! was "the loveliest girl ever." Now, Sammy has let slip a significant hint he received prior to entering the villa. In an exclusive chat with OK!'s Screen Time team, he divulged that latecomers to the show fly out to Majorca at the beginning but are kept in separate villas until it's their turn to join. Sammy took home the Series 10 crown alongside Jess Harding (Image: Matt Frost/ITV/REX/Shutterstock ) "Both times I flew out right at the beginning and you're just chilling in a holding villa until you're called up," he disclosed. Yet, they remain unaware of the other contestants and "don't have a clue who's going to be in there." Article continues below While they're largely kept in suspense about the islanders' antics, bombshells do occasionally get a sneak peek at the unfolding drama. Sammy confessed: "Sometimes they'll offer you to watch an episode, so you can decide who you're leaning towards." During his second appearance on the series, Sammy took up the offer, although it didn't influence his choice of partner.

Discussing why he wasn't swayed by the TV show, he remarked: "I didn't want to choose someone based on what I'd seen on Love Island because there's so much you don't actually see. So I would have rather gone in and decided for myself based on meeting people." Moreover, the celebrity went on to admit his prior interest in his now-girlfriend, stating: "Also, I already knew that I fancied Elma, so it was quite an easy decision for me." Despite frequent rumours suggesting they've parted ways, the couple remains united. The constant speculation about a potential split often arises from fans, at times simply because Elma shares posts without mentioning her partner. Love Island winner Sammy Root has revealed the behind-the-scenes secrets of being a bombshell (Image: Sammy Root ) They're not rushing into marriage, but Sammy has assured that their partnership is advancing positively. "I think me and Elms are just in our own little world, taking things day by day," he summed up.
