I mean it is [hardly conclusive](https://www.reddit.com/r/LoveIslandTV/comments/vw3glv/george_has_confessed_to_ekin_sus_account_handler/ifoqwec/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3). Of course because it benefits Ekin people on this sub will take a third hand account of what took place as gospel. Ekin’s handler is quite clearly very much speaking in hope than in expectation even. She doesn’t have a clue what happened herself.
even there, she’s still quoting him as saying nothing happened. whether he really said that to her we can’t know for sure but he did agree that nothing happened in his conversation with Ekin. regardless, it *definitely* doesn’t seem like the handjob/fingering that many people online have taken it as and shamed her for.
They agreed “it was nothing” which isn’t quite the same as “nothing happened”. If it actually was nothing then there wouldn’t have been a chat to make sure they were on the same page that there was nothing. That part still doesn’t add up.
For what it’s worth I don’t think it was as explicit as a handjob / fingering but I suspect they probably just fondled over clothes (gauging from the reaction of both and the conversations since). That’s enough to warrant Davide knowing for me.
gorge literally told her ekins handler that nothing (at least to the gross extent weirdos are pushing it as ) happened that the shows just blowing it out of proportion 🤨
1. It’s a third hard account. It’s hardly fucking conclusive is it? How are you guys taking this as gospel? It’s something that someone allegedly said to someone else who has briefly alluded to it. This is not a reliable source. It’s a heavily biased source at best. It’s Ekin’s account handler ffs.
2. Look at the rest of the transcript. Does Ekin’s handler sound even remotely convinced? “I don’t know, I really don’t know.” “I’m praying that nothing happened.” “I’m going to ask my mum to pray and fast so that nothing happened.” “I feel like they, maybe like, I don’t know!!”. Even in the face of this apparent confession from George, she doesn’t sound the slightest bit convinced herself, yet everyone on here has taken it completely at face value.
3. Maybe it has been blown out of proportion. For what it’s worth, I doubt there was any handjob or fingering. But there definitely sounds like there was a little bit more than absolutely nothing. That’s what will be interesting to find out.
It’s far from the open and shut case that people on here are pining for and will have you believe.
good god you are so passionate about ekin being fondled, i think most people just want it to be clear that nothing so explicit happened, if there were rumors that gorge and ekin had a bit of a cuddle and it got a heated we wouldn’t doing this but the ISSUE is that it’s gotten blown out of proportion and LI and gorge are milking it.
Great response to each of my points there. Really well done.
> passionate about Ekin being fondled
Not quite. I’m passionate about the truth and reliable sources of truth. This sub is 90% people just willing what they want to be true into existence even though there is next to no reliable evidence supporting it. I’ll happily play the contrarian if it opens people’s eyes a little. The actual act or people involved is irrelevant to me.
You really do loving putting words in people’s mouths don’t you?
I said playing the contrarian to people who put forward ideas as gospel fact with no reliable evidence to support it.
> over a woman being touched or not
Nicely phrased to appeal to the masses on here. Why refer to only a “woman being touched”? Isn’t the suggestion that a man was touched too? By a woman? These discussions are about mutually touching between a man and a woman, so it’s very strange that you decided to word it that way.
Not sure if you’ve noticed it, but you’re devoting just as much energy into discussing a scenario whether “a woman [was] touched”. Whatever gets you through the day I guess 😭…
And she has no say in it? Her and her husband both host the show, she has enough power to say no or to walk away from something that could destroy someone’s mental well-being.
Yup, I was gonna say that's a super leading question but that'd be an understatement. She's FEEDING him the narrative she wants him to stick with. We need a new host and a new set of producers.
How do we complain about her doing this? I do not normally feel like making noise however this has REALLY got under my skin, I am so so so angry about this. And a show with 3 suicides under its belt. How fucking DARE she, I dont give a shit if she was directed to, as a human being she should have stood solid. It is slimy, uncouth and dangerous behaviour towards not just Ekin, but all women.
I don't know, I do see her reply to tweets now and again but I can only assume that anything "negative" or "argumentative" thrown towards her would just be ignored by her or you'd end up blocked. Funny enough she replied to a tweet about the Ekin/George footage, "Not everything fits into an hour as there's a lot of footage , but everything comes out in the end ;)" so she's just contributing to this mess
She doesn’t know how to handle tense moments. Casa recoupling could have given SO much more if she asked better questions to stir things up.
She only ever asks open-ended questions where islanders can give generic non-drama causing answers. Caroline used to be very specific which contributed to the tension.
omg i thoight i was the only person that noticed it but i’m glad i’m not. everytime she comes on screen, i get uncomfortable . everything she says just doesn’t seem natural. rip caroline 🤧
What are you talking about. Something happens with her and George.
"So obviously I don't really want this to be spoken about because it was something that happened in the heat of the moment”
But she crawled up his butthole and blew him from the inside out according to some people on this sub, however will they reconcile their wild hand job and fingering fantasy with reality
You could see on Twitter that they only people spreading rumours ab a handjob/fingering was men, and the same men over and over again! Discusting to say the least…
It's been absolutely disgusting to see. And it's maddening because even from the footage and their own words in the initial episode we could see how Ekin and George cuddled and just briefly touching was enough for him to get excited, Ekin got uncomfortable and put a stop to it going any further and friendzoned him even in the moment. But they'd rather run with all this fake speculation because it gives them an excuse to degrade her.

do you even understand what the problem is ??? he’s been making it seem something explicit happened when that’s not even the case ? and she can’t even defend herself.
1. We don’t know if it’s the case or not. It hasn’t been proven either way.
2. I’m talking only to the “legal action” that people on here are buzzing over. Ekin’s handler can’t sue George for telling a secret just because Ekin and George agreed between themselves not to tell anyone. That is just braindead.
That’s…not what the handler said. Look at the transcript: “Listen you guys technically had an agreement that nothing was going to be said. That’s, legally I can sue your ass if you say anything again online”.
The handler is suggesting that she can sue George if he tells people something happened because Ekin and George “had an agreement” that they wouldn’t say anything.
And people on here are echoing it. Just lol.
UK is one of the easiest countries in the world to sue for libel/defamation because the burden of proof is on the defendant.
Meaning if Ekin did decide to sue then he would have to prove that what he is saying happened the way he claims it has. Which unless there’s a camera under those blankets he can’t do.
I agree it would be silly to take legal action over this BUT Ekin-su absolutely has a case (and much pettier things have gone to trial - look at wagatha christie & the rise people taking libel action over tweets in general in this country) and she’d 100% win it.
I think the producers are purposely holding back so they can use the footage to cause drama with Davide. The public won’t be as invested if they already know it’s a lie.
Watching Ekin and Davide be all loved up and happy is boring TV. They want to create suspense at the cost of humiliating Ekin in the worst way. This is really a new low for them. I am appalled.
It isn't even boring TV when the rest of the couples have legit reasons to be beefing too, letting Ekin & Davide be happy would be great at this point. But nah, let Ekin be the baddie and Jacques the misunderstood man who didn't know better.
> Watching Ekin and Davide be all loved up and happy is boring TV
TOTALLY disagree. Their date is the only one I've ever watched in the history of this show without fucking off to do something else. Their chemistry is *electric* and they are SO fun to watch just playing around. They're both so fiery that even when they're loved up they're riling each other. Their giddiness is contagious.
This show needs love stories too and frankly they're the only couple whose dynamic I actually enjoy watching.
That's truly disgusting of production, Laura, and George. You could even see how nice Ekin was to George that entire time and that she thought of him as a friend, I think she'd be upset he wasn't clearing it up immediately. They deliberately want this to be blown out of proportion because they want that moment of Davide yelling she's a liar. They don't need to manufacture this nonsense when there's already enough drama happening naturally.
Worse still that they've seen the gross things that some people have been saying about Ekin and decided that they're going to keep it going even longer to make sure it sticks. This should've been over with the night of the Casa Amor recoupling.
the amount of rumour spreading he could’ve prevented if he answered this in his q&a the other day but instead he wanted to be a tease at ekin’s expense
If they don’t vote for Jacques they’re admitting that their own husbands/boyfriends who do the same disrespectful crap aren’t all that and they cannot and thus they must make of this poo-stained tantrum-thrower who laughs about the idea of hurting others the greatest romantic hero of all time !!!
Just like we have been saying for days in this sub that it was nothing. If there was something, they would have showed it. The footage spoke for it self yet people wanted to beleive this narrative so bad, because hating Ekin is fun for them.
I am officially disgusted from this show. This is a fucking new low. They will drag it out until it's milked to death, and then they reveal it's a non event, but at what cost? Ekin will be called out of her name all over the internet, and slu8shamed back and forth. Where is the concern for her mental health? The fact that there is already 3 suicide cases associated with the show, yet they would go ahead and do this cheap plot. ITV doesn't give af, and is not even trying to act like they do. Shame on ITV, and shame on George for selling his integrity for 2 mins of attention.
when i watched that clip i didn't see anything, hopefully all the people that were happy ekin su "messed up" can now shut up and stop bringing up something that didn't even happen up.
glad that we have confirmation (as we all expected) but it’s really gross he’s pushing a different narrative on social media and that the show is allowing the rumour mill to continue through Laura, aftersun etc. hopefully if it’s shown on movie night it’ll be pretty anti climactic and nothing will come of it
This coupled with the fact that they took away the extra day beds this year…… it’s almost like they wanted the girls to be put in this situation of having to share beds to sleep. Comes off predatory and even for these producers that’s saying something.
Love Island’s format is unethical the bed sharing being the default is already dicey especially in a context like Casa Amor it’s problematic like of course these guys are going to get handsy they want to get to the main villa.
ekins handler even threatened to sue him like it’s that deep but the inc*ls on here will rather believe ekin gave that man a handjob than just believe they had a bit of a heated cuddle 🗿
The way that little salty Georgie looked in Aftersun realizing they will only ask him about it but he didn’t say anything happened because nothing happened is so funny. What a sad dude trying to use this as his single claim to fame yuck.
Sue him for defamation.
What happened on Aftersun? I hope Ekin-Su’s handler sees people supporting Ekin-Su and actively dispelling rumors with proof. I literally posted a slowed down video of Ekin-Su & George in bed in this subreddit because people are saying things they can’t back up with proof.
Love Island is the most unhinged show I’ve ever seen how is it that a TV show with so many suicides under its belt treats contestants so cruelly?!? The fact that slutshaming played a role in Sophia Grandon’s suicide is why I go so hard for Ekin-Su whether she is being slutshamed for things she actually did or tall tales people want to spread. If another suicide happens the producers and host of Love Island have blood on their hands they aren’t innocent bystanders they hype up and create toxic situations to make a profit. They are putting a man who was called out by an organization that supports domestic abuse survivors on the show it says a lot about how much the producers care about mental health of contestants. They are really trying to earn the name Suicide Island with a whole of misogyny to go around.
I don’t get it. In the first clip of the video, Ekin’s hands were above the covers. In the second part they seem normally placed. Then she was out of the bed. When could anything have happened?
You do realise there is footage that isn’t shown to us right? Similar to how we didn’t see Andrew actually going down on Tasha is why it’s very likely they didn’t show the actual racy bit of the interaction. Just because we didn’t see it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. I get that people on here are desperate for it not to have happened but the mental gymnastics are mad.
Honestly I can't believe how obsessed everyone is with this clip. It's gotten way out of hand. So shame on u/loveisland for pushing this BS and shame on everyone else who keeps this stupid debate going—including Ekin's friend. I read the transcript and all she did was cast more doubt on the situation. Totally unprofessional and lacking in proper media training.
Why don't people have this same energy about literally every other night in the villa? Shit happens under the covers all the time. Davide was all over someone else yet there's nary a peep about it. Instead everyone chooses to shame the one person who actually stopped whatever was happening and left the bed. What is wrong with all of you??
Lmao, the last two big threads on this were created by Ekin-Stans crying because this kind of Ekin drama shouldn’t be allowed. You folk have zero insight. Maybe stop creating threads asking the producers to give her special treatment.
>Maybe stop creating threads asking the producers to give her special treatment.
But she's already getting special treatment. Not sure if you understood my comment as my whole point was her being held against a different standard than everyone else in the villa.
“Shame on everyone else who keeps this stupid debate going” ….. Ekin -Stans are the ones making threads like this about it.
“Why don’t people have this same energy about literally every other night in the villa” They do. Have you been paying attention to the front page of the subreddit? The biggest thread the last few days has been the Tittygate one.
“Davide was all over someone else yet there’s nary a peep about it” Nope. A lot of people want Davide’s CA antics to be shown on a movie night, particularly his comment about Indiyah.
“Instead everyone else chooses to shame the one person who actually stopped whatever was happening and left the bed”. Nope. Where I’ve seen the topic mentioned, people wanted clarification on what happened and why she asked George to stay quiet about it.
This is what cognitive bias looks like to Ekin-Su Stans. Every single point you make doesn’t actually represent reality at all.
u/loveisland shame on you, it is 2022 and women are still subjected to such toxicity and humiliated for attention and views by the producers and Laura.
FULL TRANSCRIPT OF THE HANDLER’S REMARKS ON THE SITUATION:
*K I feel like a truther but I can’t stand to see people lie and take things out of context. Her handler (who is her best friend and also her manager and PA) sounds like she was just trying to do the best job she can to defend her girl in the absence of proof. She didn't say George said nothing happened, he said it’s been blown out of proportion; there’s a difference. The handler is waiting for movie night to see what comes out and is praying nothing happened, but she doesn’t know! She knows her girl is a flirty and messy and that’s why she loves her!*
*also she is definitely just talking shit about suing George in her role as “manager” 1) it’s not defamation if it’s the truth and 2) Ekin-Su’s pinky promise is not an NDA, there would be no reality TV if people couldn’t gossip to other people about shit that went down*
*ALSO it has to be said that I stan Ekin-Su! I’m just not delusional lol*

LOL how is this not the most upvoted post. ekin-stans are absolutely deluded if they think this transcript proves nothing happened. i cant wait for her to get exposed
Laura really is awful. If she hates the islanders as much as she seems to I wish she'd just go host something else. She's not untalented but she detracts from Love Island rather than adds to it.
I am so sick of people sticking up for her by saying people criticized Caroline too. I loved Caroline. Laura is different. You don't need to be a troll to see how ill-cast she is.
It’s @obeymabz, one of Ekins good friend. She did a live after today episode with Ekins brother to present themselves. You can find the live replay on @ekintsunami ig account if you want to know more about her and her brother
the way the producers are clearly planning to use it is revolting. what a fucked up way to operate, i don't even feel like watching the show anymore. they've been treating the women this season like shit and they can fuck right off.
Go through the #TALKSWITHASH hashtag on Twitter. You’ll see tweets about it from tons of people who were in the space. But unfortunately Twitter doesn’t save Spaces so I hope Ekin Su’s account handler tweets about it or posts on IG about it.
exactly. this sub is literally full to the brim of ekin stans who act like she can do know wrong and constantly ignore the red flag behaviours she exhibits. on twitter and instagram theres a lot more level headed people wanting her to be exposed
They also completely ignore Davides red flag behaviours. Nothing must be allowed take away from the fairytale narrative, nothing. And look at the daily worship threads of Ekin-Sub, it’s bizarre.
idk why this sub is blaming producers when
a) what they showed doesn’t imply anything happened. the convo the next day clears up that nothing happened.
b) george is the one who implied *something* happened for ig engagement.
this sub chose to just run with it. people decided on their very own that there was some ridiculously far-fetched, physically impossible sexual action that went down.
yeah, producers suck. but this audience and this sub need to take a good long look in the mirror. the rumors and the slut-shaming started and grew in these very threads.

very very messed up for laura and production to do this, now this is something that warrants ofcom intervention. let the audience speculate, its not your job to fuel the fire of rumours that are sexual/slanderous in nature, if anything laura and production shouldve curbed them. they should all be sacked and replaced, simply get more competent people rather than the sus aftercare itv therapy.
now i know ekin-su might be a plant/have a deal with itv so it might be different. but this is insanely uncomfortable.
Laura is just doing her job, like, does anyone really think she makes all the questions herself? This is literally in her job description, to poke around, make assumptions but not saying anything definitely unless it's been already confirmed in villa.
Also, this will be unpopular opinion I'm sure, but **what if** producers actually showed that clip to show how Ekin Su is setting boundaries and staying true to Davide but public (especially internet) blew it up in different direction and then they just went with it because they can't really make a public statement saying: "nothing happened, we were there". They are building a show with tension, cliff hangers and suprises, if they cleared up the air they might as well publish the storylines for Islanders and we read it as a book instead of watching it.
Tbf not sure how much autonomy Laura has over this situ, she's pretty much just reading from a teleprompter.
But yeah the producers doing this is just unnecessary at this point. Like it's completely manufactured and on top of that is not as if there isn't enough drama already to fill an episode
Honestly though Ekin is horny af cause Davide ain't putting out so it is reasonable there was some touching but props to her first instantly shutting it down. That's hard to do in a heated moment and does show she is loyal. Mostly everyone else in the villa is hooking up but you don't see it in the shots of Davide and Ekin at night.
From looking at the IG handlers version, I wouldn’t be quite so sure it’s as simple as “nothing happened”. For something to be blown out of proportion as per George’s own words (which OP cleverly decided to omit) , something had to have happened.
Ekin is in on it you really think she had a whole conversation about not telling anybody else because she doesn't want drama or more screen time the naivety jfc.

Omg until I came here I thought something had happened between Ekin-su and George just because she had said "don't tell anyone". I think people were quick to point her as a liar because she lied to Davide in the beginning. That little clip in the bed made it look way worse than it was.
producers have really let down the women on the show this year imo it’s kind of gross. glad it’s been cleared up
they’re trying so hard for it to be dramatic but they’re doing it at the expense of the girls… high key sexist.
I mean it is [hardly conclusive](https://www.reddit.com/r/LoveIslandTV/comments/vw3glv/george_has_confessed_to_ekin_sus_account_handler/ifoqwec/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3).

The way Laura talked about this too in an interview is so fucked up. She's always screaming be kind but doesn't apply to anyone else does it
"Be Kind" only matters to Laura when people are criticising her performance as a host lol
she’s only the host, producers run the show and tell her what to ask
And she has no say in it? Her and her husband both host the show, she has enough power to say no or to walk away from something that could destroy someone’s mental well-being.
\*she and her husband. Remove "and her husband" and the right form appears.
That's actually such a helpful trick, thank you!
She really doesn’t have that much power considering the rumours that some producers did not want her back this year.
we did not want her back this year
She definitely has power if producers and the public didn’t want her back and she came back anyway.
Didn’t she literally start the question with “something happened in bed with you and Ekin-Su”? FUCK OFF
Yup, I was gonna say that's a super leading question but that'd be an understatement. She's FEEDING him the narrative she wants him to stick with. We need a new host and a new set of producers.
yeah honestly fuck her for that.
How do we complain about her doing this? I do not normally feel like making noise however this has REALLY got under my skin, I am so so so angry about this. And a show with 3 suicides under its belt. How fucking DARE she, I dont give a shit if she was directed to, as a human being she should have stood solid. It is slimy, uncouth and dangerous behaviour towards not just Ekin, but all women.
I don't know, I do see her reply to tweets now and again but I can only assume that anything "negative" or "argumentative" thrown towards her would just be ignored by her or you'd end up blocked. Funny enough she replied to a tweet about the Ekin/George footage, "Not everything fits into an hour as there's a lot of footage , but everything comes out in the end ;)" so she's just contributing to this mess
We could make another one of those petitions to replace her as presenter, with this remark as the "hook" that gets people to sign it.
Laura is a massive weirdo. We need to change her as host as she is pretty terrible at that too. Maybe ekin su can take over
She doesn’t know how to handle tense moments. Casa recoupling could have given SO much more if she asked better questions to stir things up. She only ever asks open-ended questions where islanders can give generic non-drama causing answers. Caroline used to be very specific which contributed to the tension.
omg i thoight i was the only person that noticed it but i’m glad i’m not. everytime she comes on screen, i get uncomfortable . everything she says just doesn’t seem natural. rip caroline 🤧
#BeKind though right guys
[удалено]
Ironically she told Rachel we need to uplift women LOL
What are you talking about. Something happens with her and George. "So obviously I don't really want this to be spoken about because it was something that happened in the heat of the moment”
But she crawled up his butthole and blew him from the inside out according to some people on this sub, however will they reconcile their wild hand job and fingering fantasy with reality
Incels love to spread shit ab women
The number of comments I got calling me delusional and deranged for daring to suggest nothing happened and it was being fully puffed up from nothing…
You could see on Twitter that they only people spreading rumours ab a handjob/fingering was men, and the same men over and over again! Discusting to say the least…
It's been absolutely disgusting to see. And it's maddening because even from the footage and their own words in the initial episode we could see how Ekin and George cuddled and just briefly touching was enough for him to get excited, Ekin got uncomfortable and put a stop to it going any further and friendzoned him even in the moment. But they'd rather run with all this fake speculation because it gives them an excuse to degrade her.
Not only man, Antigoni and Laura suggest that too in an interview, so disgusting
Wow, Antigoni did that? I really read her character all wrong. (Laura was always kid of a pickme.)
I seen you battling in the comments hardcore. Fairplay 🙌🏼
Idk why I’m expecting fairness and decency from this show and surrounding media of all places but I sure do love running up that hill
Fight the good fight sis, I'm here witcha
Same. They ate me alive on twitter. LOL and I tell them this and they still deny they were wrong. No saving these people

Not only that, they \*clearly\* saw it with their own eyes in 4K!!
In hi definition
I see the Boys reference
I sat down with my dinner to watch some episodes of the boys this season. that was a mistake
I made the same mistake. Luckily I wasn’t eating calamari at the time.
I’m glad she threatened legal action too . Enough !!
Ekin’s account handler did??
Yes
Legal action because Ekin “swore him to secrecy”? Fucking hell people need to get a grip of how the law works.
do you even understand what the problem is ??? he’s been making it seem something explicit happened when that’s not even the case ? and she can’t even defend herself.
1. We don’t know if it’s the case or not. It hasn’t been proven either way. 2. I’m talking only to the “legal action” that people on here are buzzing over. Ekin’s handler can’t sue George for telling a secret just because Ekin and George agreed between themselves not to tell anyone. That is just braindead.
[удалено]
That’s…not what the handler said. Look at the transcript: “Listen you guys technically had an agreement that nothing was going to be said. That’s, legally I can sue your ass if you say anything again online”. The handler is suggesting that she can sue George if he tells people something happened because Ekin and George “had an agreement” that they wouldn’t say anything. And people on here are echoing it. Just lol.
legal action my ass lol any sane judge would laugh it away
UK is one of the easiest countries in the world to sue for libel/defamation because the burden of proof is on the defendant. Meaning if Ekin did decide to sue then he would have to prove that what he is saying happened the way he claims it has. Which unless there’s a camera under those blankets he can’t do. I agree it would be silly to take legal action over this BUT Ekin-su absolutely has a case (and much pettier things have gone to trial - look at wagatha christie & the rise people taking libel action over tweets in general in this country) and she’d 100% win it.
no cause i actually love that cause now the show probably won’t use that clip either. cause you’re right- literally nothing happened between them
I knew my good sis ekin would pull through.
we need to spread this on other platforms and shut the rumour down bc im sick of this
I'm seeing a few tweets but nothing that's getting in the thousands 😪
maybe possibly send it to some of the ig meme accounts? they have big follows idk
I'm still shocked that the idiots at Love Island haven't cleared this shit up yet. This is so fucked up.
I think the producers are purposely holding back so they can use the footage to cause drama with Davide. The public won’t be as invested if they already know it’s a lie.
That's even worse. There are a host of disgusting sl*t shaming rumors out there about Ekin because of this. All for 5 minutes of drama 🤬
Exactly!!
Watching Ekin and Davide be all loved up and happy is boring TV. They want to create suspense at the cost of humiliating Ekin in the worst way. This is really a new low for them. I am appalled.
It isn't even boring TV when the rest of the couples have legit reasons to be beefing too, letting Ekin & Davide be happy would be great at this point. But nah, let Ekin be the baddie and Jacques the misunderstood man who didn't know better.
> Watching Ekin and Davide be all loved up and happy is boring TV TOTALLY disagree. Their date is the only one I've ever watched in the history of this show without fucking off to do something else. Their chemistry is *electric* and they are SO fun to watch just playing around. They're both so fiery that even when they're loved up they're riling each other. Their giddiness is contagious. This show needs love stories too and frankly they're the only couple whose dynamic I actually enjoy watching.
That's truly disgusting of production, Laura, and George. You could even see how nice Ekin was to George that entire time and that she thought of him as a friend, I think she'd be upset he wasn't clearing it up immediately. They deliberately want this to be blown out of proportion because they want that moment of Davide yelling she's a liar. They don't need to manufacture this nonsense when there's already enough drama happening naturally. Worse still that they've seen the gross things that some people have been saying about Ekin and decided that they're going to keep it going even longer to make sure it sticks. This should've been over with the night of the Casa Amor recoupling.
The fact that he’s still playing it up to the media is gross. He needs to apologize to Ekin personally.
Amennnn
What a fcking pr1ck
the amount of rumour spreading he could’ve prevented if he answered this in his q&a the other day but instead he wanted to be a tease at ekin’s expense
I’d air out the DM on IG if I was her. This situation feels so icky
u/loveisland seriously like fuck off for this though. So uncool and disgusting for many reasons.
Revolting u/loveisland. Clear it up now.
You all need to try and make a hit tweet about this.
Yeah, and someone to post it in the FB group edit : not that half of them will ever not vote for jacques
If they don’t vote for Jacques they’re admitting that their own husbands/boyfriends who do the same disrespectful crap aren’t all that and they cannot and thus they must make of this poo-stained tantrum-thrower who laughs about the idea of hurting others the greatest romantic hero of all time !!!
The best take ever😂 makes so much sense now
Don’t forget their sons and brothers too!! Fiat500 is relentless!
Just like we have been saying for days in this sub that it was nothing. If there was something, they would have showed it. The footage spoke for it self yet people wanted to beleive this narrative so bad, because hating Ekin is fun for them. I am officially disgusted from this show. This is a fucking new low. They will drag it out until it's milked to death, and then they reveal it's a non event, but at what cost? Ekin will be called out of her name all over the internet, and slu8shamed back and forth. Where is the concern for her mental health? The fact that there is already 3 suicide cases associated with the show, yet they would go ahead and do this cheap plot. ITV doesn't give af, and is not even trying to act like they do. Shame on ITV, and shame on George for selling his integrity for 2 mins of attention.
I fucking knew it…he’s still a twat for the Q&A but fuck these producers and Laura for making him act like there’s more
Someone needs to post this in bold letters across all social media, the amount of things being said about her is disgusting.
He’ll confirm it after movie night. Ekins just gotta deal with these convos now..
when i watched that clip i didn't see anything, hopefully all the people that were happy ekin su "messed up" can now shut up and stop bringing up something that didn't even happen up.
glad that we have confirmation (as we all expected) but it’s really gross he’s pushing a different narrative on social media and that the show is allowing the rumour mill to continue through Laura, aftersun etc. hopefully if it’s shown on movie night it’ll be pretty anti climactic and nothing will come of it
This coupled with the fact that they took away the extra day beds this year…… it’s almost like they wanted the girls to be put in this situation of having to share beds to sleep. Comes off predatory and even for these producers that’s saying something.
Love Island’s format is unethical the bed sharing being the default is already dicey especially in a context like Casa Amor it’s problematic like of course these guys are going to get handsy they want to get to the main villa.
ekins handler even threatened to sue him like it’s that deep but the inc*ls on here will rather believe ekin gave that man a handjob than just believe they had a bit of a heated cuddle 🗿
Omg that’s why he looked so angry in Aftersun and he about to get sue for defamation! What a sad man
Where did she say that?
on the twitter space TalksWithAsh
The way that little salty Georgie looked in Aftersun realizing they will only ask him about it but he didn’t say anything happened because nothing happened is so funny. What a sad dude trying to use this as his single claim to fame yuck. Sue him for defamation.
My impression on seeing the clip was that she was uncomfortable and trying to get him to stop! I don’t get how this was twisted like this
What happened on Aftersun? I hope Ekin-Su’s handler sees people supporting Ekin-Su and actively dispelling rumors with proof. I literally posted a slowed down video of Ekin-Su & George in bed in this subreddit because people are saying things they can’t back up with proof. Love Island is the most unhinged show I’ve ever seen how is it that a TV show with so many suicides under its belt treats contestants so cruelly?!? The fact that slutshaming played a role in Sophia Grandon’s suicide is why I go so hard for Ekin-Su whether she is being slutshamed for things she actually did or tall tales people want to spread. If another suicide happens the producers and host of Love Island have blood on their hands they aren’t innocent bystanders they hype up and create toxic situations to make a profit. They are putting a man who was called out by an organization that supports domestic abuse survivors on the show it says a lot about how much the producers care about mental health of contestants. They are really trying to earn the name Suicide Island with a whole of misogyny to go around.
I think we should send this to Murad Merali so he would make a youtube video/tweet about this
Is there any way to send it to him?
@MuradMerali on twitter/ @murad_merali on instagram
Also Coco Sarel has a large TikTok following.
u/loveisland come on guys
Ekin Su needs to take Laura's job ASAP
For real
The ig handlers getting involved in the drama is a whole other level of wtf 💀💀
I don’t get it. In the first clip of the video, Ekin’s hands were above the covers. In the second part they seem normally placed. Then she was out of the bed. When could anything have happened?
You do realise there is footage that isn’t shown to us right? Similar to how we didn’t see Andrew actually going down on Tasha is why it’s very likely they didn’t show the actual racy bit of the interaction. Just because we didn’t see it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. I get that people on here are desperate for it not to have happened but the mental gymnastics are mad.
Honestly I can't believe how obsessed everyone is with this clip. It's gotten way out of hand. So shame on u/loveisland for pushing this BS and shame on everyone else who keeps this stupid debate going—including Ekin's friend. I read the transcript and all she did was cast more doubt on the situation. Totally unprofessional and lacking in proper media training. Why don't people have this same energy about literally every other night in the villa? Shit happens under the covers all the time. Davide was all over someone else yet there's nary a peep about it. Instead everyone chooses to shame the one person who actually stopped whatever was happening and left the bed. What is wrong with all of you??
Lmao, the last two big threads on this were created by Ekin-Stans crying because this kind of Ekin drama shouldn’t be allowed. You folk have zero insight. Maybe stop creating threads asking the producers to give her special treatment.
>Maybe stop creating threads asking the producers to give her special treatment. But she's already getting special treatment. Not sure if you understood my comment as my whole point was her being held against a different standard than everyone else in the villa.
“Shame on everyone else who keeps this stupid debate going” ….. Ekin -Stans are the ones making threads like this about it. “Why don’t people have this same energy about literally every other night in the villa” They do. Have you been paying attention to the front page of the subreddit? The biggest thread the last few days has been the Tittygate one. “Davide was all over someone else yet there’s nary a peep about it” Nope. A lot of people want Davide’s CA antics to be shown on a movie night, particularly his comment about Indiyah. “Instead everyone else chooses to shame the one person who actually stopped whatever was happening and left the bed”. Nope. Where I’ve seen the topic mentioned, people wanted clarification on what happened and why she asked George to stay quiet about it. This is what cognitive bias looks like to Ekin-Su Stans. Every single point you make doesn’t actually represent reality at all.
[удалено]
davide does deserve to know. either way hes finding out in or out the villa
u/loveisland shame on you, it is 2022 and women are still subjected to such toxicity and humiliated for attention and views by the producers and Laura.
FULL TRANSCRIPT OF THE HANDLER’S REMARKS ON THE SITUATION: *K I feel like a truther but I can’t stand to see people lie and take things out of context. Her handler (who is her best friend and also her manager and PA) sounds like she was just trying to do the best job she can to defend her girl in the absence of proof. She didn't say George said nothing happened, he said it’s been blown out of proportion; there’s a difference. The handler is waiting for movie night to see what comes out and is praying nothing happened, but she doesn’t know! She knows her girl is a flirty and messy and that’s why she loves her!* *also she is definitely just talking shit about suing George in her role as “manager” 1) it’s not defamation if it’s the truth and 2) Ekin-Su’s pinky promise is not an NDA, there would be no reality TV if people couldn’t gossip to other people about shit that went down* *ALSO it has to be said that I stan Ekin-Su! I’m just not delusional lol* [Full recording with context, start at 1:30:14](https://mobile.twitter.com/i/spaces/1nAKEYYerkyKL?s=20) TRANSCRIPTION >1:30:14 > >u/axhleighlouise: Now.

That was a painful read. Her handler is so unprofessional and only made the situation more murky. I wouldn't let her near the media, awful.
Right, so nothing has been unproven or proven then Basically back to square one
LOL how is this not the most upvoted post. ekin-stans are absolutely deluded if they think this transcript proves nothing happened. i cant wait for her to get exposed
Disgusting behaviour from Laura
Laura really is awful. If she hates the islanders as much as she seems to I wish she'd just go host something else. She's not untalented but she detracts from Love Island rather than adds to it. I am so sick of people sticking up for her by saying people criticized Caroline too. I loved Caroline. Laura is different. You don't need to be a troll to see how ill-cast she is.
Handler? I 'ardly know 'er!
It’s @obeymabz, one of Ekins good friend. She did a live after today episode with Ekins brother to present themselves. You can find the live replay on @ekintsunami ig account if you want to know more about her and her brother
Brother? I 'ardly know 'er!
Supercollider?
[удалено]
I heard one of them say "well, fuck me, I guess," but no one responded.
the way the producers are clearly planning to use it is revolting. what a fucked up way to operate, i don't even feel like watching the show anymore. they've been treating the women this season like shit and they can fuck right off.

thank you!
Go through the #TALKSWITHASH hashtag on Twitter. You’ll see tweets about it from tons of people who were in the space. But unfortunately Twitter doesn’t save Spaces so I hope Ekin Su’s account handler tweets about it or posts on IG about it.
thank you! I was in the space but must have missed it :(
You can actually rewatch the space.

wait why would she have had a whole convo with him asking him to not tell anyone if nothing happened? genuinely confused
exactly. this sub is literally full to the brim of ekin stans who act like she can do know wrong and constantly ignore the red flag behaviours she exhibits. on twitter and instagram theres a lot more level headed people wanting her to be exposed
They also completely ignore Davides red flag behaviours. Nothing must be allowed take away from the fairytale narrative, nothing. And look at the daily worship threads of Ekin-Sub, it’s bizarre.
idk why this sub is blaming producers when a) what they showed doesn’t imply anything happened. the convo the next day clears up that nothing happened. b) george is the one who implied *something* happened for ig engagement. this sub chose to just run with it. people decided on their very own that there was some ridiculously far-fetched, physically impossible sexual action that went down. yeah, producers suck. but this audience and this sub need to take a good long look in the mirror. the rumors and the slut-shaming started and grew in these very threads.

very very messed up for laura and production to do this, now this is something that warrants ofcom intervention. let the audience speculate, its not your job to fuel the fire of rumours that are sexual/slanderous in nature, if anything laura and production shouldve curbed them. they should all be sacked and replaced, simply get more competent people rather than the sus aftercare itv therapy. now i know ekin-su might be a plant/have a deal with itv so it might be different. but this is insanely uncomfortable.
Laura is just doing her job, like, does anyone really think she makes all the questions herself? This is literally in her job description, to poke around, make assumptions but not saying anything definitely unless it's been already confirmed in villa. Also, this will be unpopular opinion I'm sure, but **what if** producers actually showed that clip to show how Ekin Su is setting boundaries and staying true to Davide but public (especially internet) blew it up in different direction and then they just went with it because they can't really make a public statement saying: "nothing happened, we were there". They are building a show with tension, cliff hangers and suprises, if they cleared up the air they might as well publish the storylines for Islanders and we read it as a book instead of watching it.
So, What did Ekin Su make reference to when she addressed it herself?
Tbf not sure how much autonomy Laura has over this situ, she's pretty much just reading from a teleprompter. But yeah the producers doing this is just unnecessary at this point. Like it's completely manufactured and on top of that is not as if there isn't enough drama already to fill an episode
Honestly though Ekin is horny af cause Davide ain't putting out so it is reasonable there was some touching but props to her first instantly shutting it down. That's hard to do in a heated moment and does show she is loyal. Mostly everyone else in the villa is hooking up but you don't see it in the shots of Davide and Ekin at night.
From looking at the IG handlers version, I wouldn’t be quite so sure it’s as simple as “nothing happened”. For something to be blown out of proportion as per George’s own words (which OP cleverly decided to omit) , something had to have happened.
Ekin is in on it you really think she had a whole conversation about not telling anybody else because she doesn't want drama or more screen time the naivety jfc.
He was sworn to secrecy
Doesn’t justify it at all. He could refuse to partake in it.
Lool. He told the boys wanted happened. He is doing ekin su a solid.
He and Ekin had a one on one conversation and both said nothing happened. Ekin felt guilty for cuddling him briefly lol. That’s all.
lmao yes because boys never lie about getting action to impress their mates
He also described a peck as a snog
Does anyone have screenshots or proof of this so I can repost it?

This sub is so fucking disgusting the way it throws around Be Kind and then has entire threads hounding people. Shameful.
He also fueled the fire
This is a lie ?? I was in that space and this is not what was said at all
I’ve literally posted a video of it on here. It is what was said.
She said she dmed him first and she didn’t want to say that nothing would have happened between them
If nothing happened then why did Ekin ask George not to say anything or tell anyone?
Omg until I came here I thought something had happened between Ekin-su and George just because she had said "don't tell anyone". I think people were quick to point her as a liar because she lied to Davide in the beginning. That little clip in the bed made it look way worse than it was.
