Now, she has used her hard-earned cash to buy a stunning and spacious four-bedroom mega-home. The TV icon, who is believed to be worth over £1.8million, has given a first look inside the interior of the house. Seemingly appearing to be in the early stages of moving, Ekin showed off a snap of the staircase at the front of the property. Advertisement She added to the caption: "Here's to new beginnings." A huge living room could be seen through one of the doorways in the black-and-white snap as it appeared there was a garden to the rear.

Irish teen, 16, tipped to be next Dolores O'Riordan after viral busking video with TikTok star ‘changed life forever'
AN Irish teenager is being hailed as having a voice like Dolores O'Riordan after a video of her singing in Leicester Square went viral. Dubliner Mathilde Mullins, 16, has become an online sensation after she duetted with YouTube star Luke Silva on the streets of London last month. 4 Mathilde Mullins and YouTube star Luke Silva Credit: Social Media Collect 4 Their version of Coldplay song The Scientist has 2.5million views on TikTok Credit: Social Media Collect 4 She is tipped to be the next Dolores O'Riordan Credit: Getty - Contributor Their version of Coldplay song The Scientist has an astounding 2.5million views on TikTok. Italian performer Luke — who has 2.1million followers on TikTok and 1.88million subscribers on YouTube — invites people to sing with him in the English capital. Mathilde told The Irish Sun: 'I knew Luke has millions of people watching his videos on YouTube and TikTok but I never thought I would be in one. 'That was until I went on a trip to London with my mum a few weeks ago. 'I heard music coming from Leicester Square and realised it was Luke performing one of his famous videos. 'I really wanted to talk to Luke about us duetting together. But I was nervous about asking him as he is such a big inspiration. However, my mum then told Luke that I was a great singer.' Although the DJ and vocalist had finished for the day, he asked Mathilde for her Instagram account, @mathildemullinsmusic, and promised to be in touch. She said: 'The next day I got a message from Luke saying, 'Hey Mathilde, I'm in Leicester Square today and will be singing around 3pm, will you make it?' 'I was like 'oh my god', Luke Silva just replied and he wants me to sing with him!' 'I was so excited replying back to him, saying 'Yes, I'll be there'. Luke then sent me this list of songs and asked me to pick three.' DREAM COME TRUE That afternoon Mathilde found herself side by side with Luke introducing herself to onlookers in the famous square featuring London's biggest movie screens. She said: 'Hi I'm Mathilde Mullins, I'm 16 years old and from Dublin' — before the pair of them launched into the famous Coldplay song The Scientist. Before long a huge crowd had gathered to watch the pair, drawn in by their enchanting singing. Mathilde said: 'It was like a dream come true. 'I could feel all the love around me from people watching and so many people coming up after complimenting me. One of them told me they found all the emotion in my voice very, very touching.' However, the vocalist had no idea that more plaudits were to come her way when Luke posted the edited video of them singing together, first on his YouTube channel and then on his massive TikTok account. So far the Coldplay cover has attracted a staggering 2.5million views on TikTok, boosting Mathilde's own TikTok account from a few hundred followers to nearly 6,000. Luke was wowed by the range of Mathilde's voice as along with the Coldplay cover she performed two other songs, Stay by Rihanna and All I Want by Kodaline. And asked about the reaction since, Mathilde said: 'A lot of people are comparing my voice to Dolores O'Riordan. They asked me would I cover Zombie by The Cranberries, so I posted that and we've had 31,000 views on TikTok. 'I can't wait to see what the future holds. Busking in London has changed my life forever. 'After we performed that day in Leicester Square, I remember Luke said to me, 'Wow Mathilde what a voice and a great range you have. Keep going, I know you'll go far and you are only 16.'" He also said, 'Never give up, you've got talent and your journey has just begun.'" And she's found similar success to Irish sensation Allie Sherlock, who also went viral on social media. Allie's success even led to one of her videos being shared by pop sensation Justin Bieber. The then 14-year-old student amassed a hug following since she started her singing career, garnering over two million subscribers on YouTube and over one million followers on Instagram. And now, Allie is performing at some of Ireland's most popular music festivals, including Kaleidoscope. She joined headliners including Texas, The Coronas and Ocean Colour Scene. Ireland's largest family-friendly music event, took place across from July 4-6 at Russborough House in Wicklow. And after her big performance, she shared a video on social media, saying: "One of my biggest performance ever Kaleidoscope." 4 Allie Sherlock found fame when she went viral on social media Credit: Instagram
