Ekin-Su share sneak peek inside new £900,000 Essex mansion after moving out for ‘new beginning'
LOVE Island legend Ekin-Su has shared the first glimpse inside her impressive new £900,000 Essex mansion. The TV star splashed the cash on a brand new property in a bid to make a fresh start. 3 Ekin-Su has shared a first look at her plush £900,000 Essex mansion Credit: Getty 3 She shared this snap to Instagram Credit: Instagram Advertisement Ekin was previously understood to be living in a luxury tower block in Essex filled to the brim with TV stars including Maura Higgins. 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. The Sun were the first to reveal that Ekin had shelled out just under a million pounds on the impressive home. Ekin was close to investing in Surrey, and even looked around some properties with ex Curtis Pritchard, but did a last minute U-turn to stay more local to her family. Advertisement A source said: 'Ekin's worked really hard since winning Love Island with ad campaigns and a steady stream of telly. Ekin-Su and Curtis Pritchard SPLIT three months after Love Island All Stars 'She has snapped up this home in cash and chose somewhere more modest so she could be closer to her parents, who she spends a lot of time with. 'She's looking forward to getting stuck in and fixing it up to her perfect style. She's really proud of everything she's achieved and ready to lay down roots.' Since appearing on Love Island: All Stars in January, Ekin has split with Curtis, but has been focused on her career and working non-stop, with a focus on acting. She is currently appearing on ITV's Cooking with the Stars. Advertisement

I'm a model, 75, who's never had Botox & has no interest in becoming a ‘humanoid'… I swear by a £2 Temu buy instead
A 75-YEAR-OLD model who's never had Botox has revealed the £2 Temu buy she swears by to stay looking young. Penelope Tree first made a name for herself in the 1960s, and has enjoyed a resurgence of success in recent years - walking the runway for Fendi and Richard Quinn and appearing in a star-studded ad campaign to mark Zara's 50th anniversary. 4 Model Penelope Tree has never had Botox or plastic surgery, but still looks younger than her 75 years Credit: Getty 4 She's walked the catwalk for names including Fendi and Valentino in more recent years Credit: Getty 4 But first started modelling in the 1960s Credit: Getty 4 When it comes to her anti-ageing tips, she swears by using these face tapes - which you can get for £2 from Temu Credit: temu And while she used to be "obsessed" with her appearance when she was younger, she's now "more interested in what's going on" around her. She's also "not trying to prove anything" by undergoing cosmetic procedures to maintain a flawless facade. "You just have to accept the inevitability of ageing. I don't really see what's wrong with it!" she told the MailOnline. "And I don't like hospitals or the idea of being fiddled with in a surgical way. "Also, repeated plastic surgery does tend to make people look like replicants (bioengineered humanoids)." Instead, she prefers a more natural way of reducing the look of her wrinkles - anti-ageing face tapes. The adhesive tapes have threads attached, which can be pulled and secured discreetly around the head to make the face look more taut. And they won't set you back anywhere near as much as Botox either, as you can pick them up for just £2 on Temu. Other celebrities who use the tapes include Joan Collins and Bella Hadid. She's also a big fan of Charlotte Tilbury's Magic Cream and Trinny London's The Elevator cream. I hated my wrinkled skin, so I spent £4k to have the top layer taken off, people can't believe I'm the same person "In my 20s my currency was my beauty," Penelope continued. "Now my currency is being alive, interested and curious. "I just leave it to the hairdressers and the make-up artists to make me look as good as I can, which isn't easy!" As for her fashion sense, Penelope loves "statement jewellery", which said makes older people "look fabulous". And she loves shopping at the "affordable and fabulous" Zara. "I wear an orange Zara suit every summer and it's the most complimented outfit I've ever worn in my life!" she admitted. How is celery juice an anti-ageing potion? Celery juice is packed with antioxidants like vitamin C and flavonoids, which combat free radicals that cause cellular damage and aging. Its high water content keeps your skin hydrated and plump, reducing the appearance of wrinkles. The anti-inflammatory compounds in celery, such as apigenin and luteolin, help reduce chronic inflammation linked to ageing. Rich in essential nutrients like vitamin K and potassium, celery juice supports overall skin health and body functions. Drinking celery juice regularly can complement a balanced diet and skincare routine, promoting a youthful glow from within. But while she's happy to save money on the majority of her wardrobe, there's one thing she'll always splash out on - and that's denim. "If there's one thing I have learnt as I have aged, it's to spend money on jeans," she said, adding that she's had the same pair for three years and insisting they're "good as new".
