Ekin-Su breaks silence on claims her Love Island All Stars friends Molly and Callum are faking split
EKIN-SU Cülcüloğlu has broken her silence on claims pals Molly Smith and Callum Jones faked their split to do Love Island All Stars.
Love Island winner Ekin-Su, 29, confessed she was "gobsmacked" when Molly, 29, showed up as an All Stars bombshell just moments after Callum, 27, arrived.
The former couple - who met during the 2020 series - split just six months ago, and many fans took to social media to accuse them of breaking up just to take part in the new series.
But Ekin-Su has had her say. Speaking exclusively to The Sun for Spin Genie about Molly's arrival, she said: "I spat my drink out!
"She’s a mate but I had no idea she was going on. When I saw Callum first, I was worried about how Molly would take it.
"No one wants to see an ex on the show again and god forbid if Davide [Sanclimenti] and I broke up, I’d hate to see him back on a dating show. It’s a disrespect. But then I saw Molly arrive and I was stunned!"

And firmly denying the fix claims from some viewers, Ekin-Su continued: "I know Molly and Davide is mates with Callum.
"We’ve seen him at events and he’s single. I don’t think they would both lie about that for the sake of a show or publicity. They moved out of their house together.
"Plus, their split was six months ago. I don’t think Love Island All Stars was even approaching contestants that far back.”
Fans and Islanders alike were left floored when Molly arrived within minutes of bombshell Callum.
But some later questioned if all is as it seems, with one person writing on social media: “This is 100% for the plot and we know he’s gonna pick someone else for the drama but at the end these will reunite - cos like aren’t itv all about welfare and they only broke up in September? I think this is all part of the plot for the views!”
