Watch as explosive new Towie feud kicks off & Elma confronts ‘two faced’ star in street – leaving Lauren Goodger shocked

TOWIE'S Elma Pazar confronts Junaid Ahmed this week as they finally address their ongoing feud.

Bumping into each other in Essex, Elma reveals that she and girlband are still hurt by Junaid.

Junaid admits he's been wrong in the past and says he's changed over the last year.

Strolling down the high street with best pal Lauren Goodger, Junaid is greeted by co-stars Saffron and Elma.

Junaid says to Saffron: "Are you going to invite me on a walk?"

Saffron tells him: "You’ve got to clear the air with a few people!"

A surprised Junaid replies: "Still?"

Lauren says: "I thought it was done…"

Saffron explains: "Walking club, it is hosted by Courtney ... Elma is part of it. And I joined.”

Junaid asks Elma: "How are me and you?"

Elma shares: "Well. We are not terrible…. me and the girls were really hurt by you. . .

"We once upon a time loved you individually…we all had our own relationship with you.

"But equally, you have done something to each of us individually.

"That is the hard part about it.

"I want to believe Harry and I want to believe Lauren and I want to believe everyone else who has said ‘oh no, Junaid is really making an effort. He is trying…’

"But my fear is – you are going to be nice for six months. And six months down the line something is going to trigger you and you are going to go on the turn again and all the information you've collected off everyone

"You are going to sit back and throw it in everyone’s faces..."

Owning up to his past mistakes, Junaid says: "100%. It is good to understand where you are coming from and where your head is at…and the girls as well.

"I know I have said some absolute disgraceful things to each and every one of the girls and I have owned that.

'For my peace I need to apologise to those girls and leave it with them…"

Elma put her foot down and says: "For the girls, where it is to do with their own personal lives… and people who are so close to them…it is a harder hurdle to pass."

Junaid tells them: I totally appreciate where you are coming from and actually having a conversation with you where it is not aggy because genuinely I don’t have time for it at all. I know I have done wrong."

Towie legend Lauren, who returned to the ITVBe show after nine years away, said she could sympathise with Junaid and understood why he fell out with his co-stars.

Lauren tells the girls: "A lot of things were said – nastiness – which you know and he has completely owned up to…

"But I know why he did what he did. He is projecting so much hate to everyone because he is unhappy. He has come through that and I see a better side to him. I know I praise him....'

Saff interjects: "You do! You’re worn out."

Lauren jokes: "I have retired – I have done my work."

Junaid and Lauren then head off when it starts to rain, as Lauren says as they walk off: "I think it was all genuine."

And Saff tells Elma: "That was quite firm. You put him in his place," to which Elma adds: ";I wanted to but I didn’t want to hurt his feelings."

Lauren's comeback

TV favourite Lauren delighted fans as she returned to the show after nearly a decade away.
