Elma Pazar is heading back to the Love Island villa for a second chance at love and has opened up about her romance with The Only Way Is Ess.e.x star Diags has changed her approach to love

Elma Pazar will be looking for The One when she heads back into the Love Island villa.

The 31-year-old star entered the villa back in 2019 for her first stint, lasting just six days on the show when she entered alongside fellow bombshell Maura Higgins, who became a stand out star on the show.

Elma later joined The Only Way Is Ess.e.x, where she fell for Diags (real name James Bennewith). The pair had an on and off romance for several months but he has since moved on with someone else. Elma, meanwhile, was shown flirting with Sammy Root – but it looks like there’s no chance of romance, if Elma’s heading into the villa.

Discussing her past relationships, Elma has admitted that nothing has changed since her last time on the show but she is now ready to settle with someone and share her life with the right man.

Elma is hopeful she can find The One

Speaking to The Mirror and other press, she said: “I’ve been consistently inconsistent. I don’t think anything has changed the way I am and the way I date. I don’t think Diags changed the way I am or the way I date.

“I think it’s made me a bit more self aware of the commitment issues I had at that time of my life. It was a while ago now. I thought I wanted that with James but I actually didn’t. Again, that was two years ago but I think so much happened in such a short amount of time. I don’t feel like I’m the same person I was a week ago, let alone anything else.”

Elma says she is now ready to meet a man – as she fumed at those who use the show for other reasons.

“I feel like I want a fella. I want to be with someone. To go and do Love Island again, a second time around, especially five years later when I’m so much older, to then go in there with no actual real of wanting someone is very stupid,” she said. “I know I want to go in there and meet someone. I’m very open. If I always do what I’ve always done, I’ll always get what I always get.”

However, Elma has ruled out one thing happening in the villa – she won’t be having sex.

“Having sex on the show? God forbid! I’m a woman! I don’t think I would. I’d like to think I’ve got a bit more self control to wait for five weeks,” she insisted as she opened up about the possible of getting intimate.
