The 27-year-old beauty - who has been living in Dubai - will return to the ITVBe show for a dramatic showdown with former boyfriend James Lock, after she discovers his secret fling with her friend, who is believed to be a member of the reality TV show's cast.
A source told The Sun: "Yaz is fuming. And Lockie is doing his best at damage limitation control.
“He says he totally regrets the night of passion with her pal but it’s not looking like it’ll wash.
“The cast will reunite for the next series in Sandbanks in Dorset.
“Whilst it’s not confirmed just yet that she’ll be back, there have been a lot of talks about her return.”
James and Yaz split on a trip to Dubai in February, with Yaz choosing to quit 'TOWIE' and remain in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
A 'TOWIE' spokesperson said: "Yaz has decided to stay in Dubai to pursue a career in real estate so she won't be starting this series of 'The Only Way is Essex'. We support this decision and wish her well in this new venture.
"As with other cast, the door remains open should she return to Essex."
James said: "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. I have a lot of love for Yaz and a huge amount of respect for her but we’re just better apart."
She added: “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."
