LOVE Island All Stars fans reckon producers have already picked their winners – and they’re not happy about it.
Viewers are convinced that ITV is setting up Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Curtis Pritchard for the win, with many accusing the show of giving them a “winners edit” in the final stretch.
Viewers took to social media to point out the apparent shift in how the couple is being portrayed after Ekin-Su's ongoing feud with Elma.
The outrage reached new heights during last night’s villa Talent Show,
Ekin was given a keyboard and wowed the islanders with a “masterpiece” performance—while her long-time rival Elma Pazar was stitched up with a squeaky violin she could barely play.
One viewer wasn’t buying it.
They tweeted: “Them giving Elma that silly violin and Ekin the keyboard to play that masterpiece, this villain edit is really something.”
One furious fan ranted: “Defo giving Ekin and Curtis the winners edit. I’m presuming ITV has a show lined up for them.”
Another fumed: “Ekin angel edit so close to the final and people falling for it.”
Ekin-Su and Elma have been at each other’s throats for weeks after Ekin kissed Sammy Root in a challenge early in the series.
Elma took the move personally, calling her out for being fake and branding her a game player.
Since then, she’s made plenty of digs at Ekin-Su—but last night, the feud came to a shock end as Elma apologised for “picking on” her.
Some fans reckon the emotional moment was all part of ITV’s plan to soften Elma's image ahead of the final.
In the episode, the two sat down for a conversation to address the situation.
Elma began by saying: "I felt we both got a lot off our chests yesterday. Maybe it was needed, in a roundabout way."
Continuing, she added: "I just want clear up... because I feel like you really think I've got this vendetta against you."And in all honesty, it's never about you. The Sammy kiss obviously was an issue. I don't understand where all of that anger really came from.
"I get that you were sticking up for Curtis. I personally find Curtis very jarring. That is just my opinion. You, I do not."
Some fans weren't convinced the moment was authentic - and shared their thoughts online.
One person wrote: "oh the producers MADE her go have that convo #loveislandallstars."
Another added: "producers obviously forced this ekin and elma chat #loveisland #loveislandallstars."
While a third penned: "lmaooo the producers definitely forced aunty Elma to talk to Ekin no ways that raging volcano would come speak willingly to her #LoveIslandAllStars #LoveIsland."
A fourth remarked: "Oooohh.. The Love Island producers have stepped in and told Elma about the backlash, hence the "apology."
