Axed All Stars beauty reveals which Love Island star will hook up with bombshell Sammy Root as she sends warning
Bombshell Sammy hinted at rekindling a romance with a former flame
LOVE Island's Olivia Hawkins has revealed there's only one girl for new bombshell Sammy Root ahead of his All Stars entrance.
Sammy, 23, has a past with Elma Pazar, 32, after they met on the Towie circuit, so his arrival could not come at a better time for her after Ronnie Vint ditched her for Harriett Blackmore.

Now, axed star Olivia, 29, said Elma would be the perfect match for former flame Sammy.
On the Love Island official Instagram page, Olivia commented on Sammy's photo, writing: "Elma our manifesting came true."
Olivia also warned if Elma doesn't make a beeline for Sammy, then she'll be heading back to the villa, writing: "Elma go get him or I’m coming back in."
Sammy has made it clear that rekindling a romance with Elma could be on the cards.

Before entering the villa, Sammy was asked how he felt about seeing some familiar faces.
He replied: "For the people I have met before, I’m excited to see them again, but who knows - it could be fun or it might be awkward."
Sammy, who split from Jess Harding just three months after they won the 2023 series, revealed what he is now looking for.
He said: "Previously I put a lot on looks whereas now I think it’s more important to focus on personality.

Speaking about his biggest red flags, Sammy said: "I’m not a fan of uptight people, I want someone who doesn’t care about what others think and just wants to have fun."
Sammy's been in holding in Cape Town for a while, but ITV2 bosses have put him in the villa at just the right time for him to rekindle early flames with Elma.
A source said: “Elma has said the attraction with Sammy was nothing more than flirtation as she’s conscious they have an age gap of nearly 10 years, but Love Island execs hope under the South African sun, love could bloom.
“Sammy is pals with a few of the lads too including Casey and Ron so will slot right in.
“He’s All Stars' second winner too, joining Ekin in that accolade.”
Sammy won series 10 of the ITV2 dating show alongside then-girlfriend Jess.
However, the pair's romance didn't last, and they ended up splitting just three months after leaving the villa.
