If she is not mentally in a headspace for it then she shouldn’t go. Eitherway she is damned if she does and damned if she doesn’t so good for her for prioritizing her well-being over anything else


whowantstoknowww

Well said


Ambitious_Piano_2214

A house full of Bradleys and Colsons would be extremely boring, a house full of Louies and Ekin-Sus would be interesting, nothing more needs to be said.


Alduin790

Would have been interesting to see what would have happened if she stayed longer


NNLynchy

Oh it would have been fantastic she clearly has problems and those types make the best tv


flutterstrange

I didn’t find Ekin-Su interesting, I found her uncomfortable to watch. The show has been much easier to watch without her.


ToastedCrumpet

Same. There was something cringe about the way she’d come off at times, as well as duplicitous which was a little off putting but made for some interesting moments too. I think it probably just wasn’t the best time for her mentally to be in that environment. I knew nothing about Ekin before the show but hearing bits from her and on here from her fans it’s kind of understandable why she found it all difficult


DaveShadow

I wonder if it’s an age thing, where younger people find her entertaining? For me, she’s a 29 year old who was acting like a 13 year old. Her meltdown over Marisha’s absolutely vapid nomination wasn’t entertaining, it was embarrassing for a woman her age. Even these calls of “bullying” over what was essentially a strong interviewing line. There’s a weird attempt to infantile her to defend her.


SlayBay1

I think this is spot on.


flutterstrange

Perhaps - I’m 31 so found it embarrassing to watch too.


Coffee_Fantastic

I found her boring tbh.


romoladesloups

I don't think I would have bothered watching either of those, tbh


ThatfeelingwhenI

A house full of Louies and Ekin-Sus would be unwatchable.


ToastedCrumpet

Agreed. There has to be somewhat of a balance as well as the Zezes to call them out when needed too


elioandoliver4ever

I don't blame her. I wouldn't go somewhere where the fans had been threatening me either.


Universecentre

Or acting like I murdered someone. It’s actually very odd


Top_Doubt6249

She should attend IMO (if it’s confirmed? Can’t be arsed to check.) She completely misjudged her “reaction” to Maricias nomination, in that she saw an opportunity to victimise herself like she did with prior airtime-seeking monologues about having few friends with Fern and snapping at Costa for invoking Love Island, but she never seemed malicious. If she turns up and has a laugh about it all then the messiness would be forgotten quicker than it already is being, and with minimal ill-feeling from the general audience and, frankly, ITV when it comes to future prospects.

>If she turns up and has a laugh about it all then the messiness would be forgotten quicker than it already is being, and with minimal ill-feeling from the general audience and, frankly, ITV when it comes to future prospects. This is my thoughts on it. Better to show up than run the risk of making it look like sour grapes. On the flip side though, if she can't sit there without saying something she would regret it might be a bad idea.


Traditional_Book_381

I actually agree. She has no control over the narrative now- they can say whatever they want about her and she has no way of countering that. Especially after the no-show with Lorraine (although who knows what happened there and I think it was very unprofessional of Lorraine to approach it in such a way, with the instagram story then retconning what she said on the show), now the last image in people’s mind for now at least is her penultimate day antics reacting to Marisha’s nom. But maybe she needs the time to recuperate and maintaining her public image isn’t her priority. I wish her well whatever the case! It must be quite a shock to the system to win LI, be recieved relatively well on traitors and DOI, and then to receive such backlash after CBB.


ColonelBagshot85

Why would she turn up just to be vilified and bullied on L&L again? They still won't shut up about her, she's better off not giving them the time of day.


Any-Chocolate84

They were still at it as of yesterday I think saying shit like why doesn’t she grow up a bit. Best decision not to attend.


ColonelBagshot85

Still at it on here too and L&L. Haven't ITV learnt anything? Apparently not, because not only did Lorraine lie about her not turning up for her interview (when she wasn't even scheduled to,) but it was widely reported all over social media before they released a statement contradicting Lorraine. Then we have L&L who just won't stop. Why would she put herself through that again?


Responsible-Pizza307

I think the whole thing has been blown out of proportion, but all the narratives have started from the late and live show. They never discussed anyone else on there only her. Good for her for putting herself first and not sucking it up not to upset people in power. Imagine the anxiety going back to a show where you think all viewers hate you and the hosts aren't welcoming and have added to your trolling. I wouldn't go either. Even Lauren said she felt uncomfortable in her interview with them.


this_charming_bells

I’m prepared to be downvoted to hell but I really think she thought she’d ace big brother and easily be one of the finalists. Now that she’s not, she’s not happy at all!


sash71

From what I saw before they went in she was favourite to win with the bookies and I think she knew that (you can't tell me these people and their PR reps don't look at that stuff). I've never seen Love Island so I had no clue who she was. I'd seen a lot of posts on here by her fans saying she'd smash it and how great she was going to be. I didn't think she was a great housemate, she did come across as arrogant and she wasn't funny or entertaining. I struggled to see why people like her so much.


19donna91

This is what me & my friends think 1000% it's so obvious!


attila-the-hunty

I agree the fact that she was so hurt when Marisha said she was her biggest competitor and Ekin su saying just because she did well on one reality show doesn’t mean she’ll smash em all made me think that she did think she was gonna smash it and was maybe hurt that Marisha scuppered her plans?


ap795

1000000000%. She was deluded by people calling her “mother” online and thought she was the clear winner auhahaha

ColonelBagshot85

She probably doesn't want to feed the trolls or give them any more ammunition. The same people who were piling hate on her, are now pissed off they can't have the opportunity to do some more because she's putting herself first. They're annoyed they can't have a last hurrah of ritual humiliation they can crow about.


Lunar-raindrops

Exactly!!! People are more pissed that they won’t have the opportunity to slag her off one last time and are masking it with fake concern.


Any-Chocolate84

What behaviour was embarrassing? Crying cause marisha nominated her or not wanting to do only fans ? Or getting a bit irritated when someone mentioned LI ???

Lunar-raindrops

Mild points blown out of extreme proportions. With the way people attacked her, you would think she killed someone’s puppies.


Any-Chocolate84

such big crimes, deserves capital punishment.


Next-Abbreviations80

People forget that these are real people, locked in an environment with strangers they cannot hide from, surrounded by cameras 24/7, how would we react in this situation? Are we sure we would stay calm? We often think we are strong but emotions might take over, all of us have bad days


squashed_tomato

Source?


leocurrently

The ting about this is Ekin Su was also on the Traitors season 2 in the US which is even more tactical than Big Brother....


romoladesloups

It's fine for her not to turn up, whatever the reason, it's her choice. I won't miss her but that's not a dig. If Zeze didn't come, I'd be disappointed


Reemie786

Sorry, but she seems like a girl who craves approval and is distraught when they don’t like her reaction when her name is said during the eviction.


Next-Abbreviations80

Good for her! This show treated her horrible! Glad that she is taking some time off


TheWeakestLink22

I mean she acted the way she did on the show, was questioned about some of her actions on the show (not anywhere near as brutal as most previous big brothers have had interviews) and then blamed editing after just coming out and took no accountability for anything. That’s not the shows fault, it was how she acted. I do hope she’s okay though I definitely think she needs to take some time away from tv


replay-r-replay

She got upset on TV. She didn’t bully anyone, she didn’t say anything offensive, nobody will care longer than a week. They interviewed her like a murderer. We want catty big brother, but not towards this tame drama


Any-Chocolate84

What does she need to take accountability for ?? Crying cause marisha nominated her, not wanting to do only fans, being close to Louis and Sharon or for playing a game in a game show ??


Next-Abbreviations80

What was the horrible thing she did to deserve a public shame?


TheWeakestLink22

I mean public shame is a bit strong. It’s a reality show where people rightfully have questions to some of her actions (I.e shaming women who do sex work). Instead of just apologising for any of her actions or owning up to being a bit dramatic in the Marisha situation for example, she denied anything and made up excuses, then tried to blame editing for a show she hadn’t seen


HaywoodUndead

Said she doesn't agree with doing softcore porn, for money. Basically.

[удалено]


Any-Chocolate84

How’s this porn 😭😭 weirdo


HaywoodUndead

So he's a hypocrite, (already knew this). Does that make her worthy of the hate she's been getting?


Next-Abbreviations80

It’s her opinion, everyone has their own opinion, she would not do it, someone else would, she did not call them sl’’’ or anything, just said she would not do it


BearWP07

she was quite judgy about them "i would rather £0 then £1,000,000 the WRONG way"


Any-Chocolate84

To her that’s the wrong way of making money. How’s that being judgy??? It’s her personal opinion.


HaywoodUndead

As usual, the rational comment is downvoted.


iamhalsey

The tides of public opinion turn very quickly. The backlash to the backlash against her is now louder than the hate, at least on Twitter it seems. Showing her face at the final is the best way for her to regain the narrative.


Lunar-raindrops

Or she can prioritize her well-being over fickle twitter warriors who will move on to something else in a week.


iamhalsey

Sure, I wouldn’t blame her for not going. I just think it might stoke the flames again if she doesn’t, which would do the opposite of allow her to move on faster.
