It turns out the enemies to lovers trope isn't just for romance novels as former TOWIE star, Yazmin Oukhellou has revealed who her new bae is and their first interaction wasn't quite what dreams are made of.

Taking to TikTok, Yazmin chatted openly about her first meeting with new boyfriend Harrison Sullivan who is known on TikTok as HSTikkyTokky.

"I was a bit of an d**khead, wasn't I? I didn't make the best first impression," he admitted and we appreciate a self-aware guy.

"No, you definitely didn't," she agreed and we also appreciate an honest queen, for that matter.

Although Harrison has a bit of a rep in the world of social media, what with videos of him fighting in the streets making the rounds, Yazmin has been keen to reveal what he's really like.

In a recent video the former reality TV star confessed, "Do you know what is reallyniceand refreshing? I had my first opinions of you, I thought you were a right a***hole and really didn’t like you."

Who said romance was dead, eh?

But Yazmin went on to say, "Now that I have got to spend a bit of time with you and got to know you, you are completely different to what I thought, you are actually quite a nice person and I think your online image is maybe a little bit distorted, maybe youralter egocomes out a little bit and you play this character."

Just last year Yazmin was rumoured to be back with ex James Lock after fans noticed they have been liking each other's pictures on Instagram and were spotted (and papped) having lunch together.

This news also came after James was pictured leaving Yazmin's house, but following the rumours, Yaz cleared up all the speculation, revealing, "He's living with Pete Wicks at the moment while he waits for his house to go through.

"We share storage and have done for ages. He's always popping in to collect stuff," she told The Sun.

Obsessed with Lockie and Pete living together, we cannot even imagine the chaos that goes on in that household.

She also spoke about how James had been supporting her following an abusive relationship.

"Me and James are just friends. He's really been there for me recently having got out of an abusive relationship," she explained.

"I've been through a lot of s--- and find it hard to trust people. He's that person I can turn to in bad times.

"It's like I can't be friends with an ex without people thinking there's something going on."

The TOWIE star added, "I'm trying to be independent and heal. I want to sort my s--- out and focus on myself."

Yazmin also shocked fans by sharing videos of her relationship with James during their tumultuous time on TOWIE.

Posting a clip of a chat between herself and James talking after splitting up, Yaz was seen telling James that she would "always love him", but they just "don't work together".

She captioned the clip, "Love seeing these old clips on TikTok."

Back in December 2020, Yaz was happily in a relationship with James and they attended Georgia Kousoulou and Tommy Mallet's baby announcement together. Fast forward a few months and the pair split in Dubai and while Lockie returned to the UK and TOWIE, Yaz stayed in the UAE and started a new career in real estate.

In 2021, she returned to TOWIE to make amends with James and said she would be staying in Essex, but two years later and Yaz is loved up with Harrison and always seems to be off gallivanting somewhere glamorous.

Diags, Fran Parman and Tom Pearce

This one got VERY complicated, given that Diags and Tom were best mates. While Diags couldn't admit that he was in love with his then housemate Fran, Tom decided to intervene by romancing Fran himself to try and give Diags the kick up the bum he needed. It was looking a bit iffy for a while there, but Diags and Fran ended up dating for three years with his friendship with Tom in tact.

Mark Wright, Lauren Goodger and Lucy Mecklenburgh

It was clear it was doomed from the start, wasn't it? In between (!) his flirtations with Sam Faiers and his actual relationship with Lauren Goodger, Mark was romancing a teenaged Lucy, and brought her to Lauren's charity fashion show. Cue tears and lifelong insecurity for our Loz. Sob.
