Love Island fans have warned Ekin-Su Cülcüloglu off a Real Madrid teen player after they got a snap together.
Ekin-Su, 29, has been keeping her head down ever since she left the Celebrity Big Brother house this spring. However, she has since sparked controversy after she was seen hanging out with an up-and-comer in the Real Madrid football team.
Taking to her Twitter account on Wednesday (July 17), the Turkish soap star was seen hitting the gym with fellow Turk Arda Güler. Having recently played in Euros on the Turkish national team, the footballer is fast becoming one to watch as a new star of the game.

However, fans were quick to flood the comments section with messages of caution for the former Love Island winner. This was mostly due to the decade-long age difference between the Arda and Ekin-Su, as the midfielder is aged just 19.

Captioning the snap of the selfie as the pair worked out in the gym, Ekin-Su penned a simple: “Hey babes,” before tagging Arda’s official account. Fans grew suspicious and inundated the replies with pleas for Ekin-Su to stay away from the star.
One disgruntled fan attached a photo of Walter White from Breaking Bad screaming from a car window as they commented: “STAY AWAY FROM HIM!!!!” A second user fumed: “It’s a big season ahead, we need him focused on Real Madrid and Turkey – Love Island vibes is for semi-pros.”
A third added: “You’re like twice his age, leave him alone please.” While a fourth account typed a simple message: “Run, Arda. Run.”

It comes as Ekin-Su continues her “healing” journey after receiving immense backlash from her time in the Celebrity Big Brother house. The Traitors US star was evicted from the house mid-way through the series, but claimed the “editing” of the show made her out to be someone who she was not, sparking a wave of criticism online.
After leaving the show, Ekin-Su cut ties with Big Brother, missing out an appearance on Lorraine Kelly’s show after being given the boot and even going as far as to miss the final of the show altogether. But in April, over a month after the show ended, the Turkish star broke her silence, saying she had “lost herself” in the midst of the chaos.

“I hadn’t felt myself for a long time, and I’ve realised I had kind of lost myself and for a while didn’t know who I was beyond being defined by ex relationships or TV shows, and that needs to change!” she explained. “I am so excited for all the growth and full healing.
“CBB was the final lightbulb moment to make me realise what needs to be done. Embracing the fresh start to a new month and new era – wishing everyone an April full of possibilities. I am so grateful for each one of you.”
