Love Island’s Sammy Root and Elma Pazar split as raw break-up is ‘caught on camera’

https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article35357573.ece/ALTERNATES/s615/2_JS335354842.jpg

Just four months into their relationship, reports claim, a well-known Love Island couple split. Elma Pazar and Sammy Root are alleged to have called it quits after breaking up while filming their coup.

The Only Way Is Essex’s most recent season reportedly filmed the “raw and emotional” scenes, which are scheduled to air later this year. It’s claimed viewers will notice the split isn’t “straightforward” in the footage, which will be broadcast on ITV2 and ITVX.

Although Sammy and Elma aren’t currently together, a source said there is still a great deal of love between them.

Sammy and Elma reportedly separated (see Instagram/ @elmapazar).

As they discuss their issues and how to make their relationship work together, the insider continued to tell The Sun: “While it’s not a straightforward split, viewers will watch how Elma and Sammy manage their feelings on Towie.”

They continued to believe that their future is uncertain and that they still have a strong relationship. Fans will see the couple have a number of heart-felt feelings in front of the camera, the source continued, with the reasons for their split set to become apparent.

According to the source, “the story of the show features some of the most heartfelt and raw footage ever captured for TOWIE.”

Elma and Sammy have regular relationships on TOWIE, but they never had a romantic relationship prior to spending time together on Love Island. Elma told Sammy at the time that she thought they would go outside the bounds.

We haven’t been in each other’s pockets, she said, which I believe is a good thing. It’s nice that both of us have returned to our lives.

We still communicate, and I met his family, and we still speak each day. It’s nice for our families to properly meet us because they have watched us for the past few weeks and are likely to feel comfortable with us inside out.

In Essex, it appeared as though their relationship was regaining momentum. Sammy had attempted to pour cold water over split rumors at the beginning of the month.

Sammy told OK! “I don’t really know where the rumors come from,” he said. I could post carrousel pictures but she wouldn’t want to, or she would do the same to me, and then apparently we broke up. It’s typically the tiniest little thing.

He continued, “I believe some people may have a little fervor for each couple.” So they enjoy seeing your photos of each other. whenever I post content without being with Elma. Where’s Elma? is a question that is always asked.

Sammy confessed at the time, “If I see anything about us being broken up,” I’ll just DM it to Elma and we’ll laugh about it.

The British number two was defeated by Jiri Lehecka 7-5, 6-2, in the quarter-finals, putting an end to Jacob Fearnley’s run to Queen’s.

After putting in a strong performance against French qualifier Corentin Moutet on Thursday, the 23-year-old put on his first last-eight match of the ATP Tour event.

On another hot day in west London, Lehecka, the Czech world number 30, proved too much for him.

Fearnley’s first break of the match had a promising start, but the world no. 60 immediately gave up after three double faults.

Lehecka broke the double break to take the set 6-5 before serving the set, which cost him even more in the end.

At least 35 killed in new Israeli attack on Gaza aid seekers

According to sources at al-Awda Hospital, while waiting for humanitarian aid near the Netzarim Corridor in the center of Gaza Strip, at least 35 Palestinians have been killed and several others have been injured by Israeli fire.

At least eight people were killed and more injured when Israeli jets bombed a house in central Gaza west of Deir el-Balah.

At least 50 Palestinians were killed by the Israeli army on Friday, according to hospitals in Gaza.

Since May 27, Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) began distributions, hundreds of people have died as a result of Israeli attacks on hungry Palestinians close to aid centers.

The UN has criticized the shadowy Israeli- and US-backed organization that is tasked with distributing aid supplies. Aid organizations have warned that the entire population is facing a potential famine after Israel imposed a total blockade from early March through late May.

The Government Media Office director-general for Gaza, Ismail al-Thawabta, reported on Thursday that 3, 203 more people had been injured and that 409 people had been killed overall.

UNICEF issued a warning that the Gaza Strip’s water systems were also suffering from a man-made drought.

According to spokesperson James Elder, “children will begin to die from thirst,” he told reporters in Geneva on Friday. Only 40% of drinking water production facilities are still operational.

The GHF distribution system, according to the UN agency, was “making a desperate situation worse.”

Elder, who was recently in Gaza, claimed to have heard numerous reports of women and children who had been harmed by a tank shell and later died from their injuries.

He claimed that there were too many mass casualties because the general public was unsure of when the sites, some of which were in combat zones, were open.

“There have been instances where information]was shared that a website is open, but it was later revealed on social media that they are closed,” he said. However, that information was shared when no one in Gaza had access to the internet because it was unavailable.

Jesy Nelson fans ‘hearts break’ as she shares rare glimpse of Zion Foster with tiny twins

Jesy Nelson, a former Little Mix singer and proud new mother, has shared a rare video of her partner Zion Foster dancing with his newborn twin girls.

Fans of Jesy Nelson’s heart break as she shows glimpses of Zion with tiny twins.

Jesy Nelson has shared an adorable video of her partner and baby-daddy Zion Foster playfully dancing with his tiny newborn daughter after the couple’s twin daughters were finally allowed home and out of hospital.

Jesy, a former Little Mix singer, shared the heartwarming video of singer Zion, 25, serenading one of his twin girls as she lay on the couple’s bed on Friday morning. Zions shared a video of his father dancing while Jesy giggled in the background, which was more enthralling than ever.

Jesy announced last week that her first baby twins had arrived at her home. On May 18, the former Little Mix star welcomed Ocean Jade Nelson-Foster and Story Monroe Nelson-Foster.

Following a high-risk pregnancy complicated by twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, the babies were born two months early. After having emergency surgery to save her children while they were still in the womb, the Mine singer spent months in the hospital.

Jesy, a proud mother, announced that she and her girls have been back home almost a month after leaving. And they arrived home just in time for her birthday. The singer posted a picture of herself and her daughters dozing off in her home last week on Instagram. My babies made it home for my birthday, she wrote in the caption that followed.

Jesy surprised fans when she revealed that her young children had arrived “healthy and fighting strong” after being arrived prematurely in May. She recently shared her experience with the NICU girls. No one or no one will ever be able to prepare you for NICU, she wrote in an online post.

The most enraging and overwhelming feeling of not being able to protect your children is “. You can’t help but hold them and comfort them when they cry, which sounds like a million wires are coming out of them. Your heart is broken into pieces by the way that people prod and poke them, using tubes and masks.

However, as the days pass and the wires start to fall away, moments like this seem like dreams come true. The singer of Black Magic expressed happiness over the recovery of her two children from addiction.

The most magical feeling I can’t possibly describe was having them reunite for the first time today, she said. The most inspiring young girls I’ve ever met have the most heartfelt stories to tell.

Since then, Jesy and musician Zion have been in a stand-alone romance. Throughout the course of Jesy’s pregnancy and hospital stay, Zion has remained by her side.

As Zion shared three black and white images of himself and Jesy in bed together that made it seem like they may have tied the knot in early May, the couple made the couple’s wedding announcement. Jessica responded to the comments by writing “My husband,” which sparked a flurry of backlash from fans.

‘I saved over £200 by swapping my pricey skincare for this Boots K-beauty brand’

https://i2-prod.ok.co.uk/incoming/article35426307.ece/ALTERNATES/s615/0_Untitled-design-2025-06-20T131349119.jpg

I tried out some of the key pieces from the popular K-beauty brand, which just launched at Boots, because Korean beauty is currently a big hot topic.

K-beauty is not a new trend, but Korean skincare is becoming increasingly popular this year thanks to consumers who are fans of its “glass skin” glow. A number of renowned brands have recently branched into mainstream stores, including the brand Beauty of Joseon, which is now available from Boots, and has already proven to be a huge hit. This is also now easier than ever to purchase here in the UK.

I avoided my tried-and-true skincare regimen and turned to some of Beauty of Joseon’s bestsellers, the majority of which cost around the £15 mark, because I couldn’t believe how glowing they made my skin look. What I would re-purchase is listed below.

This cooling face tool is essential in hot weather, and it instantly depuffed my tired eyes.

Charlotte Tilbury releases the “glow in a stick” product known as “amazing for dry or mature skin.”

Beauty of Joseon is the ideal example of this because Korean skincare products are all about hydratation and glowing when applied in multiple light layers. I used the £15 Beauty of Joseon Revive Eye Serum: Ginseng + Retinal, which feels cooling and refreshing, and is recommended if you’re trying to combat puffiness and dark circles, but is likely to have had little to no impact on dryness and fine lines over the long run.

Next up was a product I’d never really used before, but which I feel made the biggest different to my skin: an essence. Glow Replenishing Rice Milk, £15.50, is designed to be patted into the skin. It’s an excellent way to get extra hydration and radiance into the skin without piling on heavy layers, and I saw a noticeable glow from this. Our shopping writer Grace is also a fan, saying how one person actually stopped her in the street to compliment her glowing skin after using this.

I also tried a few serums from the £23 Beauty of Joseon Hanbang Serum Discovery Kit, which, although all lovely and light, I don’t really believe have enough anti-ageing ingredients for my late-30s skin (perhaps better suited to younger skin) needs. I believe it would be great for oily to combination skin after using Dynasty Cream, a moisturiser that costs just £21. It is currently sold in the Love Island villa and has a gel-cream texture.

You should definitely check out Korean formula, which are typically high-factor but very light, and Beauty of Joseon’s are no exception if you normally dislike the feeling of greasy sunscreens on your face. In winter, I’d probably use Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+, which is currently priced at £13.95, but Relief Sun Aqua-Fresh Rice + B5 SPF 50+, which feels like water and is best for oily skin.

I couldn’t believe how beautiful my skin looked after using this complete K-beauty regimen: it was glowing, fresh, and juicy. The Relief Sun Aqua-Fresh Rice + B5 SPF 50+ and the Glow Replenishing Rice Milk made the biggest difference, in my opinion. I’ll repurchase these, but I’d highly advise checking these out first if you’re thinking about trying the brand.

If I continued to follow this pattern, I would save a lot of money. The price of Austinus Bader The Face Mist, £76, Skin Rocks The Eye Cream, £65, Medik8 Liquid Peptides Advanced MP, £79, ALLSKIN|MED Barrier Defence Emulsion, £82, and Ultra Violette Future Fluid Superlight Mineral Skinscreen SPF50+, £38, which together totals a rather eye-watering £340. However, the total cost of these Beauty of Joseon products is about £80, which is a savings of about £260.
