Ekin-Su Cülcüloglu, the winner of Love Island 2022, recently shared her experience with revenge porn and how it affected her. The 29-year-old reality star has gradually returned to the spotlight after her appearance on Celebrity Big Brother, but her journey has not been easy.
In a candid interview, Ekin-Su bravely spoke about a traumatic incident where her phone went missing during a Tinder date. The man later showed up at her home with a brand new phone for her. While she thought it was a kind gesture, it turned out to be a red flag as the phone wasn't in its box.
Ekin-Su continued to use the phone and stayed in touch with the man for two months until she received a strange email to her work address. It contained an intimate photo of herself that she had sent to her ex-boyfriend. The sender claimed to know everything about her and threatened to leak more photos if she didn't reply.
Feeling helpless, Ekin-Su turned to the police, but they couldn't do anything as the sender's IP address couldn't be traced. She was forced to delete all the contents of her phone, iCloud, and email inbox. However, the ordeal didn't end there.
When Ekin-Su applied for Love Island, she was asked if there was anything that could come up during her background check. She feared the intimate photos might surface, but thankfully they didn't. However, she still worries that they might come out in the future.
Despite the traumatic experience, Ekin-Su is not letting it define her. She is taking back ownership and focusing on her career. After her successful appearance on The Traitors US, she is now attending award shows and has some major TV plans in America.
However, Ekin-Su's journey hasn't been all smooth sailing. She recently went through a public breakup with fellow Love Islander Davide Sanclimenti and is now happily single. She hasn't given up on love completely and has joined the celebrity dating app Raya.
The reality star's return to the spotlight has not been easy, especially after her divisive stint on Celebrity Big Brother. But Ekin-Su is determined to keep moving forward and is grateful for the opportunities that have come her way. She is taking back ownership of her life and career, and we can't wait to see what she has in store for us.
