Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Curtis Pritchard have split up months after falling (and fighting) for each other on Love Island: All Stars
Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Curtis Pritchard recently confirmed they went their separate ways after dating for only a few months. The two appeared on Love Island: All Stars together and quickly and intensely fell for each other, leaving fans baffled as they fought and made up (and made out) every few minutes.
Upon leaving the South African villa, the two appeared at a number of events and shared a few snaps of them posing together, but speculation soon started growing on whether they broke up as they failed to post any photos together online. And now, after weeks of concern, Ekin-Su confirmed they're now single as she shared the 'tough decision' behind their split in a statement.
‌
‌
Ekin-Su said they had decided to "go [their] separate ways" and that it had been a "tough decision".
Her statement read: "I wanted to share that Curtis and I have decided to go our separate ways. It's been a really tough decision, but one made with a lot of love and respect for one another.
"He's an incredible person and I'll always cherish the memories we made both in and out of the villa. Thank you all so much for the love and support over the past few months.
"We're both focusing on navigating this transition and would really appreciate privacy during this time. Love always, Ekin-Su xX."
Although Ekin-Su didn't give a straightforward reason for their split, she had been the centre of drama between Curtis and MAFS star Georges Berthonneau in recent weeks.
‌
The Married At First Sight star previously alleged he was in a relationship with the brunette beauty while she was dating Curtis. Speaking on Fubar Radio, Georges claimed: "On the day before my birthday, she was out with him that night, and they'd had an argument.
"She was messaging me whilst he was asleep in bed with her being like, I need to see you. Blah, blah, blah, like, I've got the receipts on my phone."
‌
He added: "Everyone was like 'why are you saying it now?', because I loved the girl and I didn't want to let go of it. And my biggest thing was, why should I keep protecting someone who can't even apologise or take accountability."
He continued: "I even said to her on the phone, I was like 'are you not going to apologise?' You had sex with another man whilst I was at home. And you're not even going to apologise."
Curtis later broke his silence and told The Sun: "Hey, if he wants to get in the ring with me, tell him to call me out and let's get in the ring. I've just been focusing on the camp. I haven't read anything or done anything, truthfully. And that's all that matters to me. I'm focusing on the camp, I'm focusing on having fun with Ekin and that's all that matters to me."
