The new series of The Only Way is Essex is just around the corner, only a few days to go and we will finally have some clarity about, well, everything.

Are Harry Derbidge and Joe Blackman REALLY over?

What did Dan Edgar do that made Ella Rae Wise so damn mad?

Can Diags keep his hands off Elma Pazar?

Is Amber Turner still a style queen?

We know the answer to that last one, a resounding yes.

We've also been wondering if Love Island bombshell Ella Barnes will be making a comeback, as last time we checked she was having it off with Roman Hackett.

Turns out Ella and Roman are no more and now Roman has been spotted sharing a lil kiss with one of his co-stars and you will NEVER guess who.

The official TOWIE Instagram posted a cheeky interview with Roman and Saffron Lempriere where they chatted all things Essex, not only that but Saff teased a holiday romance.

“I might kiss someone in Cyprus," Saffron grins which leads co-star Roman to look at her suspiciously.

"Who are you kissing in Cyprus?" Roman quizzes his pal, before they give each other a peck on the lips. If we could use exclamation marks, we would.

Although it's clearly in jest and there doesn't appear to be in any romantic feelings between the two, fans are still shipping the couple.

One person wrote, "They're kinda cute together just sayin," with even their co-star Elma adding, "The kiss 😂😂😂😂 this is becoming a regular thing @roman_hackett @saffronlempriere_x 👀👀👀👀😂."

Saff has always been a shoulder to cry on for Roman, remember when he kissed Chloe Brockett even though he was supposed to be getting it on with Dani Imbert? Not his smartest move.

Friends to lovers always is a trope we love to see come to life on our telly screens, however at this point we think the duo are just besties.

WATCH: Brace yourselves, a brand new series of TOWIE is on the way and it's going to be an absolute corker according to Junaid
