From Essex to South Africa: Elma’s Journey Back to the Villa
Hailing from Essex, England, Elma’s initial stint on Love Island came alongside fellow bombshell Maura Higgins during season 5. Despite her charm and beauty, Elma’s time in the villa was brief, and she was dumped just days after entering. However, the show and the experience left a lasting impression on her, and now she’s back, ready to prove herself in the All Stars season.
Elma has openly stated that her previous time on the show was “cut short” and that she didn’t get the opportunity to show her true self. With a newfound confidence, she’s ready to return and “give it a proper go” this time around. As she told ITV, she is prepared to be her “true authentic self,” bringing an even more dynamic energy to the villa.
New Chapter: From Love Island to The Only Way Is Essex
Since her time on Love Island, Elma has remained in the public eye, appearing as a regular on The Only Way Is Essex (TOWIE). During her time on TOWIE, she’s had moments of fun, including a flirtationship with cast member Diags, but her heart is set on finding true love this time around.
Elma believes in living life to the fullest and has said, “I want to have fun and I want to give it a proper go this time. My time was cut short the first time round, and who knows, I could be the next Sophie Piper and Josh Ritchie or Molly Smith and Tom Clare.”
Elma’s Perfect Match
When it comes to relationships, Elma knows exactly what she’s looking for. She’s not interested in looks alone; she’s searching for someone who has strong family values and a real sense of drive and ambition. Elma has admitted that she finds a “dad bod” attractive and prefers someone who is genuine and down-to-earth.
“I just want a normal geezer, really,” she shared, hinting that she’s more interested in someone’s personality than their appearance. Elma’s ideal partner would be someone who is grounded, with a strong sense of self and purpose.
Elma’s Age and Journey on Love Island
Elma is 32 years old as of 2025, with her birthday falling on July 7th, 1992. When she first appeared on Love Island in 2019, she was 26, bringing youth, beauty, and excitement to the villa. Now, with more life experience under her belt, she’s ready to take on the All Stars season with a renewed sense of purpose.
What’s Next for Elma?
Elma’s second chance on Love Island All Stars is one that fans are eagerly anticipating. She’s no longer the new girl entering the villa; this time, she’s a returning islander with something to prove. Will she find love and make a deeper connection than before? Only time will tell, but fans are excited to see her story unfold in South Africa.
