Celebrity Big Brother fans baffled as Ekin-Su develops American accent – as Fern claims she ‘absorbs personalities’
CELEBRITY Big Brother fans have been left baffled after claiming Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu has developed an American accent.
British-Turkish Ekin-Su, 29, lives in Essex but is said to split her time between there and Istanbul.
However during last night's episode of Celebrity Big Brother fans rushed to social media to comment on the former Love Island star's accent.
Ekin-Su was talking to Marisha Wallace after being left hurt when the US star chose her in the face-to-face nominations.
But viewers were left distracted by the sudden change, with one writing: "Why is Ekin suddenly American?"
Another said: "Ekin is doing a weird American accent."

And a third asked: "Why did Ekin-Su adopt an American accent when she was talking to Marisha?"
Ekin-Su was also nominated by Fern Britton, who told her: "I sometimes think you’re wearing a mask and I think you might absorb a lot of people’s personalities very quickly."
She and Marisha, 38, had a bust-up after the nominations and after Ekin-Su stormed off in tears the Broadway actress threatened to quit the show.
Speaking the Diary Room, Marisha said: "I can't take it anymore. I just want to go home."
Ekin-Su left her housemates stunned when she nominated Louis Walsh - despite their close friendship from the start.
As 71-year-old Louis looked on, she said: "My first nomination is going to be Louis.
"I just feel like Louis is a bit lazy and I prefer someone who is a team player.
"I would like him to be more practical with housework in the home. That's why I want to nominate Louis."
