Yazmin Oukhellou is set to confront James Lock over allegations he cheated on her, just days after the on/off couple confirmed they’d split once again.

Yaz and Lockie will come face-to-face with each other in BBC Three’s Eating With My Ex, which reunites former couples for a dramatic showdown.

The TOWIE pair split in 2019 when Yazmin accused her boyfriend of cheating on her while they were on holiday together in Turkey. Although Lockie has always denied being unfaithful, the rumours continue to cause tension between them when they sit down to discuss their relationship.

Yazmin grills Lockie, asking, “Did you cheat while I was asleep?”

But James hits back, accusing Yazmin of having a “borderline obsession” with him, to which she replies, “Don’t flatter yourself!”

Fans will have to wait until the show airs on Sunday (14 February) to how they leave things, but it appears Yaz and Lockie managed to resolve their issues (temporarily, at least) as they revealed they were back together in August.

Things seemed to move too quickly for his liking though, causing him to run from her house after being introduced to her parents. Oh, Arg...

The turbulent couple sparked rumours they’d rekindled their relationship when they were pictured kissing while on holiday in Mallorca in July.

A month later, they confirmed their reunion by promoting package holiday company Jet2 as they flew off for another romantic getaway, this time to Greece.

But despite looking loved-up on social media, Yazmin admitted she still didn’t trust Lockie “100%”.

She explained, “It's still early days and I know it sounds weird and obviously we broke up over something I didn't trust him on, but I trust him more now than I did before. I think that's because I've done a lot of self-healing. But I feel like I will never trust anyone fully 100 per cent and I don't think you ever should.”

Sadly, it seems Yazmin and Lockie just weren’t able to make their relationship work and they called it quits once again after “huge arguments” on their “work trip” to Dubai.

“We’ve broken up. We tried to make it work and we really thought it was going to be different this time but things don’t always work out as you’d expect,” Lockie told OK! magazine.

“I have a lot of love for Yaz and a huge amount of respect for her but we’re just better apart.”

Yazmin told the same publication, “James and I have split up amicably. I love James but we’re not good together.

“It couldn’t go on the way it was so I told James we should end things and he agreed.”
