Love Island star Ekin-Su has reportedly been signed up for Celebrity Big Brother after her split with Davide.
After her time on Dancing On Ice, the star looks set to be taking part in the celebrity edition of Big Brother after the show's successful reboot last year.
It has been reported by The Mirror that Ekin-Su will be living next to Strictly Come Dancing's Shirley Ballas, TOWIE star Joey Essex and popular X Factor judge Louis Walsh.
In the 2022 series of Love Island, Ekin-Su and Davide were voted to victory and crowned winners.

Love Island's Ekin-Su and Davide split up
The couple have been together since then, breaking up only briefly, until last week when the pair ended their 18-month relationship.
Discussing the breakup online, Love Island and possible Big Brother star Ekin-Su said: ”The last 18 months have been a rollercoaster of ups and downs, just like every relationship. Davide and I both wanted to make this relationship work as we cared deeply for each other. Unfortunately, I have recently made the decision to end our relationship and to go our separate ways."
She added: "Breakups are never easy for any couple. I enjoyed our time together and will cherish the memories we made.”
During her stint on Dancing On Ice, she raised a few eyebrows with her first appearance prompting some 112 Ofcom complaints over her performance to a Britney Spears number.
After the flurry of complaints, she admitted that she "was very upset," adding: “I had negative feedback, which saddened me. I’m not going to lie after all that happened, I was crying a lot. I went home, I cried in Davide’s arms.”
Ekin-Su was then the third person to be eliminated from the show.
The reboot of Celebrity Big Brother will be presented by AJ Odudu and Will Best with a whole new set being created for the ITV programme.
The celebrity reboot is set to air next month on ITV2 with a spokesperson for the broadcaster declining to comment on those taking part.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
