Yazmin ended her romance with Jake in January after discovering he had been unfaithful with former Love Island contestant Ellie Jones. 

It is unknown when the pair reconciled and the reason for them being in Turkey, with Yazmin last sharing a photo of herself in London on Tuesday. 

This year, Yazmin was set to make her return to TOWIE after filming with the cast in the Dominican Republic. 

Jake was jailed for three-and-a-half years in 2008 after conning his way into a mother’s house, overpowering her before a masked gang ran in and raided the family home.

He reportedly tricked his way into the property pretending to be a estate agent. Jake was 18 at the time.

In 2013, Lauren, who met her former lover via Twitter, admitted she was aware of Jake’s criminal convictions but she was willing to oversee his wrongdoings.

She said: ‘Jake told me about his past. I could see how much he regretted his actions. I try to take people as I find them.’
