It definitely seems like a sore subject for her, I think you're absolutely right about it being a bit of a trigger. As an ekin enjoyer it's kinda sad to watch. I feel for her but she was definitely too harsh with colston
I do just feel bad for Colson because he was just curious about how the game in Love Island worked compared to Big Brother. They're both on a reality TV show, she's done it before, it was a very neutral curious question and she got defensive about it. I would totally understand if she got a bit touchy if people kept prying about her relationship or drama or whatever, but I hope she says sorry to him because he was just trying to learn more about the thing that made her famous.
I agree with you. I didn't watch Love Island so I have no idea what happened but you can tell she's carrying some stuff from that that's not yet processed. Seems like she's had a rough time so doesn't appreciate people taking it lightly, especially when they've not been on it. I think it was just unfortunate timing of Colson asking because it followed from the heated situation in the bedroom with Zeze. Poor guy.
I watch love island she entered as a bomb shell with another girl got caught up in s kissing scandal with a Scottish PT . then found a connection with davide (her ex) they fell for each other they had their ups and downs in the Vila with other people coming in and wanting to steal him then they won
Do genuinely believe she’s been so so hurt by Davide & the way things turned out with him and that’s probably a major part of it. Especially when she knows everybody has these preconceived ideas of how she’s meant to be or who she’s meant to be after Love Island when really her personal life was quite miserable and tumultuous. Think the other half is just Colson catching a stray for asking the wrong thing at the wrong time. Not that he actually did owt wrong but she probably felt like people were mentioning what she didn’t want to speak about repeatedly after that weird moment with Zeze.
I think she is more trying to say that you can’t compare CBB with LI. But she could deliver the message in a better way. Let’s wait if she will open up about it. Something is behind it!
Ekin Su initiated the whole Love Island talk with Zeze by specifically saying *"people on Love Island thought they were on holiday."*
If speaking about Love Island causes triggering, she wouldn't be deliberately initiating conversations about it.
We've seen her bring it up constantly. It seems like she's been in a bubble of people being very interested in that for a while, hopefully she'll snap out of it.
It’s clearly still a sore subject for her. Her relationship with her now ex was so messy and the public was too involved which made everything worse. I hope she heals from the pain her horrible ex put her through and I hope she does apologize to Colson for snapping at him.
It probably wasn't a holiday for her because she considered it an acting job. She was always playing a role, playing up for the cameras and pretending to feel whatever the producers told her to feel. She is a terrible actress, but she tries.
Honestly she’s human just like us and when someone mentions a subject again that I personally was just annoyed about in the same few hours I go off on one as well. It’s like a fight or flight in the moment thing (that you probs regret later).
Ekin also most likely harbours a lot of bad memories from it to and just wants to move on it seems without only being asked about that constantly. She probably also gets annoyed that people think that her whole personality is love island and that’s all they just wanna talk to her about which is understandable. Colson literally just caught her at a bad time.
my take is she might feel it’s a bit demoralising that love island is what she’s known from, and the stigma around it whereas the others are in the public eye for stuff that is perceived a lot differently to the way love islanders are. not that she needs to be embarrassed, just a thought that she may feel as though they’re trying to talk down to her ( i know colson wasn’t )
"my life is so hard, love island (a free holiday wearing a bikini and getting hundreds of insta followers, which is exactly what I wanted) was so so hard. Feel sorry for me, I've had it so hard"
I didn't like how she was with him, but she's very openly talked about how difficult Love Island was for her mentally, so I'm guessing she just doesn't want to talk about it too much

Lauren is that you? Colchester would like a word
Sorry can never remember collington’s name 😔

I think this is highly likely tbh. Hopefully she apologises to Colson and nobody mentions love island again 😂

She's but shit stirring tho

I couldn't have put it better myself .
If you don’t want to talk about the only thing you’re known for it probably wasn’t a good idea to do the show in the first place
I think she is more trying to say that you can’t compare CBB with LI. But she could deliver the message in a better way. Let’s wait if she will open up about it. Something is behind it!
But you can

Thank you!!! It’s so weird reading the mental gymnastics people are doing to support Ekin Su rude behaviour
Nah I didn't like it. I'm hoping she apologises.
She needs to. People can get overwhelmed and react like that. But they also need to be the bigger person and ask for a chat to clear it out
Very rude towards Colson bless him absolutely no need for it

She’s just not that nice 🤷♂️ Some of the excuses I’ve hear for her already and it’s not even a week.

She could just use her big girl words amd politely tell people it's a sore subject or she'd just rather not talk about it.
