Love Island star Ekin-Su's best friend says Gemma's friendship is 'questionable' after her snide comments | The Sun

LOVE Island star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu's best friend has weighed in on whether she thinks her friends with Gemma Owen will last.

Mabel, who has been running the Turkish soap star's social media while she's been in the Majorcan villa, admitted she thought the two girls shared a "love hate" relationship.


Love Island fans have watched as Ekin-Su, 27, and Gemma, 19, have become unlikely close friends in the villa in recent weeks.

The girls have described each other as "best friends", with Ekin-Su often turning to her younger co-star for advice and support.

Despite this, some viewers have become convinced that Gemma doesn't actually like Ekin-Su due to a number of "bitter" comments.

And it appears that the actress' best friend Mabel agrees, as she told The Sun she finds some of Gemma's behaviour "questionable".

"I think it's a love hate relationship," Mabel explained. "I can't say anything unless I meet Gemma, as from TV I'm only seeing a small part of their day.

"There are questionable things I would say about how she has spoken behind Ekin-Su's back, but they've been in the villa so long now they are probably like sister."

Insisting there was no jealousy as her best friend outside the villa, Mabel concluded: "I'm so open for her to make loads of friends.

"I just want them to all be genuine, I am really good at reading people… and I'm always going to be number one!"

Despite questioning her relationship with Gemma, Ekin-Su's best pal Mabel is certain her match with Davide Sanclimenti is one to last.

"I think they're going to be great," she said ahead of their eventual exit from the villa.They're going to realise how much the public love them. She'll be like, 'I want a ring on my finger'."

Elsewhere – last night furious fans Gemma for her "catty" remarks towards her so-called pal Ekin-Su.

Last night, a talent show entertained the islanders and viewers as those in the villa revealed their party tricks – with Ekin-Su opting to perform a dramatic reading.

Describing her co-stars, she said: "Gemma, although we have shared the same man, I think you are the most mature, most beautiful and stunning girl I've ever met."

Despite the kind words she received, Gemma still found a way to make a cheeky dig at Ekin-Su in the Beach Hut.

She told the cameras: "I'm not really sure how much of a talent, she was just blowing smoke up our a***s, but I'll take it."

Earlier in the evening, fans felt Gemma and her partner Luca Bish had come across "bitter" with their reaction to Ekin-Su and Davide announcing they were exclusive.

Gemma was seen turning away before then sitting down on the sofa with Luca, where he joked that it was nice to know where he stood now Ekin-Su had labelled their relationship.

Gemma told her partner to "stop being bitter", and added: "To be fair though, we didn't do something like that for people to know we're excl, and I'd prefer it to be this way."

Luca said: "It was just when Ekin came over and said 'oh you two are basically exclusive'."

Gemma replied: "Yeah, I knew that would have p***ed you off, but if that makes her a little bit happier then go for it. We know how things are going and that we're at that point."
