I think oh Polly was suppose to be a 12 month contract but her collection didn’t sell well. She is no longer the face of the brand but will still be a brand ambassador. The owner still follows Ekin

There might be beef with beautyworks

Ekin follows them but no longer has them in her bio

They unfollowed Ekin but still follow all the other love island girlies

yea not sure what happened with Beauty Works but looks like their partnership with Ekin is dead in the waters.

Think Alex Bowen deleted his comment on Wayne’s post…can’t see it anymore. Was probably getting a lot of heat for his laughing emoji.

Chloe has also unliked it! Guess she was feeling the heat on Twitter!

i agree with this tbh, regardless she’s still done well in the first 6 months, and has made money. i don’t think influencing is her thing, i think she suits more tv stuff tho, i liked her on LI. like indiyah is on tv every sunday and is doing that along side beauty fashion stuff, who ever is managing indiyah is doing well

Except I don't really think she is a personality.

I think the person she portrayed on TV is not who she really is. If she was a personality, we would've been seeing it come through on her social media. But she only comes across as a bit awkward.

I mentioned previously that I believe she has shitty management. They should have found deals that would've suited her rather than just going for cash grabs in all in a effort to make her seem as the biggest islander ever.

I'm sure it must also suck for her that she's been receiving such unwarranted hate

It’s pretty crappy for her that her Oh Polly & Beauty Works deals have both fallen through. I’m sure though she won’t be hard pressed for work. She’s still the winner of love island after all and is still in the winning couple (ie still with Davide).

Obviously, Wayne’s post was disgusting & I feel for her about that, but she’s always going to be on the receiving end of people talking about her if she’s gotten like someone like Wayne , is getting dropped by her big deals & so blatantly and unashamedly buys ridiculous amounts of fake followers all the time.

As I said, I don’t agree with Wayne’s post at all, I’m just saying for people who go on & on that she gets too much “hate” all the time, I think as a first step she should quit buying so many thousands upon thousands of fake followers so her account at least appears more authentic like the others and that would of course up her engagement.

I’m pretty indifferent to Ekin but that behaviour from WL is absolutely awful and the comments are 50 shades of misogyny. I bet they all follow Andrew Tate as well

SunshineRae · Feb 20, 2023

Wayne Lineker is absolutely gross. He makes my skin crawl. 60 years old and he won’t dare a woman over 30. He is quite simply a predator. There is a difference between casually saying you have dated someone (which could literally mean a couple of dates) and full on outing someone in a disgusting caption on Instagram and then making a comment about “showing the world” implying you have perhaps photographic/video proof. Vile, vile, vile. And to think he has daughters, granddaughters and a daughter in law he seems to love.
---
Also, if that was a woman it would be deemed clout chasing or a “kiss’n’tell.” Because it’s a pervy old man he’s a “lad” and applauded for it while the girl is ridiculed and shamed. And why has he waited or when she is already having a bit of a tough time e.g being dropped by Oh Polly. Why didn’t he make this little revelation when she was in or just out of Love Island?

There is no way ‘oh polly’ dropped and unfollowed her for not selling enough dresses and buying followers. More to come out here I think

she probably just took on way too much after LI, and DOI took priority over her brand deals. oh polly have taken on Tammy Hembrow she’s got 16m followers but a shocking engagement but is better at social media than ekin.
Even if there was more to it, I don’t think it’ll come out. They’ve already spoken to the tabloids so if there was more to say they’d have said it.

Stans love blaming mAnaGeMenT Management work under instruction. Some talent have lofty ambitions. Other want to stack cash ASAP. If talent can't sell/get booked there's nowt anyone else can do.

It's incredibly hard to get legit TV work. Only Olivia S4 and Zara S5 have credible careers, imo. Chris/Kem S3 still feels a bit stunt casty, tbh. Soap work is even harder. Truck loads of thespos coming out of drama school every year would kill for a steady income. The notion Ekin-Su could waltz into a lucrative TV career is nonsense.

Zara had a helping hand being Sam's girlfriend. Isn’t this the same girl that was willing to sleep with a music producer to advance her career. I wonder who she’s sleeping with at bbc

We all said that about Maura too, as her personality never came across over social media either.

Loony_Bin · Feb 20, 2023

Don't give a shit, tbh. That's life. Perhaps she was also spread her legs for a VIP lounger at O Beach???

Absolutely nothing to suggest ForceOne haven't done well by Ekin-Su. They got her some big ticket influencer deals to to earn some cash. They got her on primetime ITV to build a profile away from LI. If she flopped that's on her. You have to be prepared to work hard to make it n the industry.

Josh Denzel is doing really well for himself in sports presenting.
Olivia’s tv career has only just started and the fact she couldn’t do IAC would have an impact

Most islanders don’t have a personality on the gram. Chloe and Indiyah have Snapchat which they seem more comfortable on compared to IG.

I also don’t get the whole ‘blame management’ argument ! I am seeing it now from the loyal Ekin fans and it reminds me of Gemma’s fans last year who were doing the exact same thing. But if it gives the weird stans some comfort, i say let them off on their strange tangents.

Love this & totally agree..he couldnt wait to say..shes in the public eye since the summer & it never came out so its only cause of him people knowOdd Grace asking him too did he watch Love Island..like it was a set up

Grace had the 2 traitors cast members on her podcast. The last few seconds she brings Ekin and Davide up. Starting to look like harassment

It's starting to come across like bullying. These grown adults are acting like tween bully boys and girls. They are pathetic.

You don't have to like everyone but even here when we give out about people it's meant to be fun and not taken too far. That interview went miles too far, Lineker is a creepy bastered and Grace comes across like a bitchy clout chaser. All these people are WAY too old to be acting this way.

Lineker especially should be careful before he makes the threat of revenge porn. Steven Bear is getting sentenced next month for the same shit.

Evesdropping · Feb 20, 2023

I've actually never listened to Grace's podcast based on the social clips alone. It doesn't matter who she is talking too she always comes across a bit snide and mean girl in them.

The Wayne clips and ekin’s end of brand deals feels like I’m watching her downfall on this thread I can’t cope

She will be fine! It’s just a bad week for her. She’s the winner of season 8 and is still in her winning couple. She will be just fine. Sure Davide has just signed another deal with Boohoo. Ekin will also be fine.
