Another day another Love Island contestant spending some quality time with a TOWIE star and therefore causing us to manifest a reality TV crossover.
Love Island 2023 winner Sammy Root has already hinted that he could feature on The Only Way is Essex when he told Closer that some of the lads were trying to get him onboard and a recent social media story has us wondering if they were successful.
Sammy took to Instagram to post a selfie of him and Roman Hackett where he captioned the pic, "My brothaaaa."
Sammy wouldn't be the first Islander to star on the show as both Kady McDermott and Ella Barnes – the latter having apparently dated Roman – have rocked up in Essex at some point, as have Olivia Attwood and Jon Clark.
Roman isn't the only TOWIE fella that Sammy has been spotted with, at a TV event; Sammy recently spent some quality time with Dan Edgar as well, and he confessed that both lads were trying to get him on the show.
During an exclusive chat with Sammy, Jess Harding's ex revealed all...
"When I was at the Palooza, quite a few of the TOWIE guys were trying to twist my arm to get myself on there. I wouldn’t completely throw it out of the park, it’s something I’d consider."
However, at the moment Sammy's based in Kent rather than Essex but this didn't seem to deter the reality TV star.
"I do need to move out. I’m only 22 but I think my parents are on my case to get myself out there. Essex is definitely somewhere I’d move to if it would help me out long-term."
When asked if he would date any of the ladies on the show, he said, "I think it’s early to say, there’s a lot of stunning girls. Not sure right now."
WATCH TOWIE: We’ve finally got the the bottom of THAT Belfast rumour
Ben Pulsford is a Digital Writer for Closer online and heatworld, he's also a London-based drag queen called Beary Poppins who is only a little hurt that TOWIE producers never give him a call to taking part in TOWIE's drag episode. JUST SAYING. When he's not writing about TOWIE, he's manifesting an all TOWIE cast edition of Celebrity Big Brother.
