Ekin-Su Culculoglu says she has taken inspiration from Coleen Rooney’s Wagatha Christie tactics to expose disloyal lovers. The Love Island star has gone to great lengths to flush out those doing the dirty on her, smoking out traitors with fake news.

It’s the cunning method made famous by Coleen, who turned detective to root out the source of stories appearing in the press about her and her family by planting stories. In a now iconic social media post, she accused rival WAG Rebekah Vardy of being behind the leaks. The subsequent libel dispute was dubbed Wagatha Christie, in a nod to Coleen’s online sting and playing on the name of sleuth writer Agatha Christie. Rebekah agreed to pay Coleen’s legal costs of almost £1.2million in May.

Explaining why she has adopted the approach when it comes to dating, Ekin-Su said: “I don’t trust everyone. I test them first. I deliver fake stories and if it leaks, I know they’re after clout. I do that with friends too because you just never know. Coleen Rooney was smart doing that.”

Speaking at the National Television Awards on Wednesday, single Ekin lifted the lid on her love life after her split from dancer Curtis Pritchard in May. The pair got together earlier this year on Love Island: All Stars.

With a mischievous smile, she said: “I’m in a relationship with myself – it’s great. Me and myself, we take ourselves on walks, we kiss all the time… Jokes aside, I’ve had a few dates. It’s been fun. Raya [the celeb dating app] is amazing.”

She previously dated fellow Love Island star Davide Sanclimenti after the pair met on the 2022 series but the pair split months after leaving the villa amid accusations of cheating.

It was announced today that Ekin-Su will appear in a new Netflix reality series. The 31-year-old has been announced as one of the housemates for Inside: USA which will be coming to the streaming giant on September 21. The show, which is created by the UK YouTube group Sidemen has already had two successful seasons in the UK.

She will be living alongside a number of US celebrities and content creators, including Selling Sunset’s Breana “Bre” Tiesi.

Ekin, who has also appeared on Celebrity Big Brother and the US version of The Traitors, teased another new project this week. She said: “I’ve been busy working my ass off. I just came back from Venice, now I’m flying to America.

“I’m burnt out, but life is about working hard. You’ve got to grab it with both hands. Something’s coming up in a few months. It’s not a reality show, it’s a different project.”
