TOWIE beauty unrecognisable in EastEnders cameo 12 years ago as fans left floored

TOWIE fans have been left with their jaws on the floor after spotting a cast member in an old episode of EastEnders.

Telly beauty Yazmin Oukhellou shot to fame on the ITV2 show in 2017, along with her then-beau James Lock. And it’s fair to say Yazmin became a firm-favourite with viewers.

In 2021, she left fans gutted though when she quit TOWIE to focus on her business in Dubai. But she soon made a shock return.

However, in 2022 she was involved in a horror car accident with her on/off boyfriend Jake McLean, 33, in Turkey last year. Sadly he lost his life and Yazmin then decided to take a break from the ITV2 show.

Yazmin is a reality TV favourite

But her first appearance on TOWIE back in 2017 was not her first time on the telly. The TV beauty had a brief stint on the iconic soap EastEnders.

In the scene from 2012, Tyler Moon (Tony Discipline) can be seen eyeing up Yazmin’s character in the iconic Queen Vic pub. Having a pint with his brother Anthony Moon (Matt Lapinskas), he then heads over to her and asks to join her.

The pair are then seen getting cosy together as Tyler chats her up, while Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) watches on. Tyler and Yazmin’s character then leave the pub together.

One eagle-eyed fan shared the scene to TikTok, and fans were quick to share their surprise at Yazmin making an appearance. Rushing to the comments section, one person said: “Omg lol.”

Fans were left stunned at her stint

Someone else was left just as floored by her cameo on the soap and chimed in and added: “No way!” A third penned: “Omg only just watched this episode and didn’t realise.”

It comes as Yazmin was spotted out and about with ex-boyfriend James Lock earlier this month. The pair called it quits for a second time back in 2021.

She told OK! Magazine: “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.”

But in pictures on MailOnline, Yazmin and James appeared rather cosy on a night out. Yazmin rocked a tight black ensemble and chic fur coat. While James rocked an all-black look including a zip-up top.
