United States Love Island bombshell speaks out on 'kind and loyal' Elma Pazar ...
Blimey, Love Island's well and truly brought the drama this series. Although they started off All Stars 2025 as close pals, Elma Pazar’s friendship with Ekin-Su Cülcüloğluhas deteriorated as of late after Ekin kissed Sammy Root.
After rowing with Ekin-Su’s other half Curtis Pritchard following the snog, marry, pie challenge, things kicked off once again at the All Stars dinner party after Elma and Sammy asked the public whether Ekin and Curtis (or CurtKin, as some fans are calling them) were the ‘weakest’ couple.
During the explosive row, Elma told Curtis to ‘f**k off’ and was seen smirking as Ekin-Su shared how upset she was. Although some viewers took to social media to call out Elma’s actions, her bestie and fellow Love Island 2018 star Francesca Allen has spoken out to defend her.

Francesca, who is currently engaged to businessman Ed Crossan, shared a picture of Elma and Sammy on her Instagram story and wrote, ‘A reminder that this is a glimpse into a 24 hour day and this is a TV show.
‘Please everyone be a little kinder to our girl @elmapazar. She’s the kindest, loyalist person I know, the labels being given is not who she is.
‘The people closest to her will know and understand this.’
The 2018 Islander begged viewers to ‘please be a little kinder online’ and insisted ‘the level of hate has gone too far’.

The friends and family running Elma’s account also spoke out and admitted the row was a ‘tough’ watch.
They said, ‘The villa is a bubble, emotions run high and every moment is a chance to learn and grow. No one sees the full picture of a 24 hour day.
‘Some of the comments and DMs Elma has been getting, especially about her appearance, are completely uncalled for. Let’s not forget this is a TV show created for entertainment and there’s a real person behind the screen.’

Nathan Katnoria is heat and Closer online’s senior digital writer. He became obsessed with Love Island when Malin Andersson came back to confront Terry Walsh in series two and hasn’t looked back since. When he’s not interviewing former Islanders, Nathan is scrolling through their Instagram feeds for relationship updates and piping hot tea.
