Alongside these appearances, she has also signed a number of brand deals, including being an ambassador for BPerfect Cosmetics and is even set to release a bombshell memoir.
Sharing the happy news to X, Ekin-Su wrote: ‘Can’t believe I’ve just bought my own home… just before I turn 30.’

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, 29, proudly revealed that she had bought her first home in an update on Tuesday
The couple had a turbulent 18-month relationship since they first met in the Love Island villa in 2022, going on to win the show’s £50,000 prize money together.
Shortly after their split she went on to star in Celebrity Big Brother but skipped the final after her management felt she was too ‘vulnerable’ to return in light of her turbulent time on the ITV series and subsequent drama-filled spin-off show appearance.
A source close to Ekin-Su told MailOnline her decision to go on the series had backfired and she regretted signing up, especially so soon after her break-up from Davide in January.
Ekin-Su was embroiled in a bullying row after she was booed by the studio audience, goaded by guest star Layton Williams and mocked by hosts AJ Adudu and Will Best, the latter branding her ‘Ekin Boo Hoo Hoo’, during her stint on ITV2’s Late & Live shortly after her eviction.
It comes following the news that Ekin-Su has vowed to expose all in her bombshell memoir, including what really happened in her relationship with Davide before their split.
Her new tell-all book will see her open up on childhood trauma and bullying, as well as looking back on her experiences taking part in reality shows such as Love Island, The Traitors US and Celebrity Big Brother.
She told The Sun: ‘It’s everything, my experience with Davide, there’s a lot in there. I’m done hiding. I’m done lying and protecting other people, this is my truth.’
She added that writing the book felt ‘like therapy’ and said she ‘want people to know me for me, not the work I’ve done or the wronguns I’ve dated.’

Cracks appeared in her relationship with Davide less than a month after they won Love Island as a couple in the summer of 2022.
Hunky Davide was seen leaving a party with two blondes in August of that year.
Ekin-Su said she was left in floods of tears after learning of the incident, insisting she did not want to believe Davide would treat her badly.
When she asked him ‘how could you do this to me’, she claims he simply replied: ‘Excuse me?’
While filming their ITV2 show Homecomings, Ekin-Su said she saw pictures of Davide with females on his phone.
He claims she saw images of two blonde girls in his Manchester flat wearing his clothes.
Ekin-Su did not want to make anything of the situation at the time because they were being filmed.
The television personality went on to claim Davide cheated on her with a girl called Harriet Wilson, with Harriet contacting Ekin-Su to tell her.
Ekin-Su said that at another time Davide left his laptop open and she saw sexually explicit messages between him and a girl she herself had met on New Year’s Eve.
She said seeing those messages ‘broke something in me’.

Actress Ekin-Su said she did not want to be embarrassed amid the cheating allegations so did her best not to react publicly but also wanted to protect Davide.
Davide was later spotted snorting a suspicious white powder in Ibiza while Ekin-Su was at home in the UK.
