According to the fans, Love Island UK season 8 contestant Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu is the perfect addition to the show. The latest season of the popular dating reality series began broadcasting on June 6 on ITV2. In addition to the original Islanders, several "bombshells," or newcomers, have already entered the villa. Bombshells are often sent in to shake up the villa and add more drama. One of the new arrivals, Ekin-Su, has successfully carried out the request in a short time.
Ekin-Su is a Turkish actress from Essex, and she was one of the two bombshells who entered the villa on day two. The outspoken woman quickly became a fan favorite. On her first week in the villa, Ekin-Su had already laid eyes on several contestants, including Jacques O'Neill and the Italian stallion Davide Sanclimenti. However, Ekin-Su didn't focus on these men for very long, and soon she had another hot date with another newcomer, Jay Younger. Here's why Love Island fans think Ekin-Su is the perfect contestant the show truly needs.
For some viewers, Ekin-Su's messy energy was a little too much at first, but fans soon realized that she brought much-needed drama to the villa. In a Reddit thread, user Nashateania said, "Characters like them [Ekin-Su] make the show." Another Redditor oyamaca commented, "She is giving chaos magic all day long and I'm here for it." Some viewers even dubbed Love Island season 8 boring before Ekin-Su stepped in to shake things up. While fans aren't sure about the authenticity of the actress or her motives, they agree that she is a very entertaining Love Island season 8 character.
Many fans have said how much they love Ekin-Su's chaotic personality. Reddit user Admirable_Science279 said, "I'd have 10 of her in the villa right now, some of these scenes are dull as dishwater & needs more of her chaoticness." In the same spirit, user shami1111 commented, "She is the best contestant this season, hands down. She is an actress and good at entertaining people. I hope she makes the final." Additionally, viewers have compared the Turkish actress to the Love Island season 5 fan favorite, Maura Higgins. Based on fans' opinions, it appears that the show needs more contestants like Ekin-Su, who throw themselves into the action and aren't afraid to speak out.
In a short time, Ekin-Su has become a favorite of many viewers. If it were up to the fans, she could make it to the finale. The new season of Love Island UK has only just begun, and a lot is going to happen over the summer. For now, fans agree that Ekin-Su is the perfect Islander, and they don't want to let her go just yet. U.S viewers can now follow Ekin-Su and the other season 8 contestants' on Hulu.
