Towie’s Yaz Oukhellou set to confront James Lock in explosive return after discovering secret fling with her mate
TOWIE star Yazmin Oukhellou is set to confront ex James Lock after discovering he’s had a secret fling with one of her mates.
The brunette beauty had quit the show earlier this year but is so furious she is in talks for a return.
She and Lockie had split days before she left following years of being on and off.
The Sun understands the mystery woman is a member of the Towie cast.
A Towie source said: “Yaz is fuming. And Lockie is doing his best at damage limitation control.
“He says he totally regrets the night of passion with her pal but it’s not looking like it’ll wash.
“The cast will reunite for the next series in Sandbanks in Dorset.
“Whilst it’s not confirmed just yet that she’ll be back, there have been a lot of talks about her return.”
Lockie and Yaz officially split whilst on a work trip in Dubai in February.
They first began dating in 2017, split two years later and reunited last year.
Lockie said: "We tried to make it work and we really thought it was going to be different this time but things don’t always work out as you’d expect.
"I have a lot of love for Yaz and a huge amount of respect for her but we’re just better apart."
She added: “I love James but we’re not good together.
"It couldn't go on the way it was so I told James we should end things and he agreed."
Days later she told how she had quit the ITVBe show for good, with a Towie spokesman saying: "Yaz has decided to stay in Dubai to pursue a career in real estate so she won't be starting this series of The Only Way is Essex.
"We support this decision and wish her well in this new venture.
"As with other cast, the door remains open should she return to Essex."
In July, The Sun revealed ITV bosses had axed at least ten of their cast including long-term stars Courtney Green and Chloe Meadows.
The month before, Lockie was seen putting on a cosy display with multiple women in a rooftop bar in London with pal Pete Wicks.
