It's safe to say when we first heard Love Island legend Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu's name being thrown around a mere hours after ITV confirmed that it would be rebooting Celebrity Big Brother, we let out a squeal.
Fast forward a few months later and the tabloids pretty much confirmed her involvement and we let out an embarrassing yelp. Then doing our own digging and realising that literally all the signs were pointing to Miss Cülcüloğlu entering the Celebrity Big Brother house and we let out a scream so loud the old lady who lives next door to us felt the need to check in. We then told her it was CBB related, and she said, "Say no more."
Let's just hope the Ekin-Su makes full use of her trademark skills the Celebrity Big Brother house.
Lying and acting because both are valuable commodities in that gaff.
Who is Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu?
Ekin-Su was a downright incredible addition to the Love Island 2022 villa. She entered the villa on day three and in our opinion is the ULTIMATE BOMBSHELL (we will not be taking any questions at this time), as she only went on to win the thing with then boyfriend Davide Sanclimenti.
It's safe to say she has gone on to become one of Love Island's biggest success stories, taking part in several reality shows (including The Traitors and Dancing on Ice) and lending her name to huge brands like Oh Polly and BPerfect Cosmetics.

Ekin-Su was born 21 August 1994, making her 29 years old.
Where is Ekin-Su from?
She is from Essex, but her parents are from Turkey.

YES, Ekin-Su was confirmed as a Celebrity Big Brother housemate on the launch show on Monday 4 March.

What happened with Ekin-Su and Davide?
Sadly, splitsville. But they gave it a good go by Love Island standards – 18 months. Davide confirmed that the had decided to go their "different ways" and that it was a "joint decision" in January 2024.
