There's a lot of buzz surrounding the upcoming season of Celebrity Big Brother, with rumors of some big names joining the cast. One of the latest additions to the list is a well-known reality TV icon, adding even more excitement to the mix.
With just a few weeks to go until the first episode airs on ITV, fans are eagerly anticipating the return of hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best, who were a hit on last year's civilian series. And while the likes of Louis Walsh and Kate Middleton's uncle have already been rumored to be part of the lineup, now there's talk of Love Island star Ekin-Su Culculoglu joining them.
According to reports, Ekin-Su is currently in talks for a lucrative deal to appear on the show. The Mirror has revealed that the former Dancing On Ice contestant is set to make a comeback to our screens in early March, shortly after her recent split from boyfriend Davide Sanclimenti.
When asked for comment on the speculation, a spokesperson for Celebrity Big Brother stated, "At this point, any names being mentioned are purely speculation. Viewers will have to tune in to see who will actually be entering the CBB house."
Many will remember Ekin-Su from her time on Love Island in 2022, where she and Davide won a share of £50,000 and captured the hearts of the nation with their romance. Since then, she has gained a huge following online and secured major brand deals. She also caused quite a stir on Dancing On Ice last year with her daring outfits, including a sparkly nude jumpsuit that sparked 112 complaints to Ofcom.
Despite being eliminated early on in the competition, Ekin-Su's reality TV journey is far from over. This year, she made an appearance on The Traitors US alongside other famous faces like RuPaul's Drag Race's Peppermint and former Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow.
In her personal life, Ekin-Su's split from Davide wasn't exactly smooth sailing. In a joint statement on Instagram, she announced their separation, stating that "breakups are never easy." However, things took a bitter turn when Davide posted his own statement hours later, hinting at some unexpected surprises and stating that he wants to focus on himself now.
With the possibility of Ekin-Su joining the Celebrity Big Brother house, fans are already speculating about who else might be part of the lineup. Some of the names being thrown around include EastEnders star Max Bowden, Drag Race icon Bimini Bon Boulash, Strictly's Shirley Ballas, and even Katie Price. There are also rumors about TV presenter Phillip Schofield, The Hills stars Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, and reality TV regular Joey Essex.
The official launch of Celebrity Big Brother is just around the corner, with a leaked release date of Monday, March 4. The show is set to run for three weeks, with two evictions each week. And for those who can't wait for the celebrity edition, applications for the 2024 civilian series are still open, with last year's winner Jordan Sangha set to pass on the crown in September.
