We are not even half way through 2025 but the world of reality TV has already offered up some gasp-worthy moments. From an unprecedented relationship on Celebrity Big Brother between a Love Island star and dancing legend to the second series of the iconic show The Traitors returning with gumption, reality TV really is the gift that keeps on giving.
Tell you what else was NOT on our telly 2025 bingo card, and that's MAFS UK groom Georges Berthonneau claiming to be in a relationship with Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu seconds before she sauntered through the Love Island: All Stars villa doors.
Not only that but Georges has now revealed that he has been in contact with Ekin since her time on the dating show came to an end and we beg your finest pardon?
As a guest on the Access All Areas podcast, Georges opened up about reconnecting with the Love Island 2022 winner since she returned to the UK, despite her being in relationship with Curtis Pritchard.
'We spoke post show,' the online coach admitted to host and former TOWIE star, Bobby Norris, 'she took eight days to message me.'
'She was like, "I’m overwhelmed," cool how do you think I feel?' Georges went on, 'I f**king started therapy because of you. You f**ked me up, I spent weeks crying every night.'
Ekin made it the to final of All Stars alongside Curtis who she is still with, despite rumours that they had split, but according to Georges him and Ekin were in contact just days before her stint on the romance reality TV show as well as after.
'She messaged me afterwards,' he went on, 'we had a three-hour phone call.'
Luckily, Bobby asked Georges the question we all want to know the answer to; where was Curtis when this was happening?
'The day before my birthday she was out with him that night and they had an argument,' Georges alleged, 'and she was messaging me while he was asleep in bed with her being like I need to see you blah blah blah.'
'I know she doesn't sleep very well and she messaged me,' he explained, 'she was messaging me, "oh no it's not good, I need to speak to you, I need to see you. Can I see you soon?" It's just, like...'
Ekin hasn't spoken out yet about her relationship with Georges and we can't imagine she will be divulging secrets anytime soon.
'I was like, "yeah I can see you," but she said, "you can't come to mine," then obviously she's woken up in the morning and she's just like, "oh happy birthday."'
Ekin-Su's rep's have been contacted for comment.
