Arabella Defends Ekin-Su's Love Island Romance with Curtis
Love Island’s Arabella Chi Defends Ekin-Su Amid ‘Showmance’ Claims, Praises Genuine Romance with Curtis.

Arabella Chi, 33, has spoken out in defense of her close friend Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, addressing speculation surrounding Ekin-Su’s budding romance with Curtis Pritchard on Love Island: All Stars. The model and former Islander insists their connection is genuine and believes they could go all the way to the final.
Ekin-Su and Curtis: A Refreshing Match
Speaking at the Bohomoon yoga and Pilates event at FLOW Ldn on Tuesday, Arabella dismissed claims that Ekin-Su and Curtis are engaging in a "showmance." Instead, she praised the pair’s chemistry and dynamic in the villa.
“I think we’re seeing a different side to Ekin-Su, which is really refreshing,” Arabella said in an exclusive interview. “They’ve taken on the roles of the ‘mum and dad’ of the villa, and every season needs that kind of couple. It’s lovely to see her sweet and caring side come through.”
Arabella, who appeared on Love Island: All Stars in 2024, explained that the pair’s shared career paths—Ekin-Su as an actress and Curtis as a dancer—allow them to “bounce off each other.”
“They complement each other well. Curtis is such a gentleman, and after some of the tough relationships Ekin-Su has been in, it’s refreshing to see her being treated how she deserves.”
Defending Their Connection
Despite skepticism from fans about the speed of their relationship, Arabella believes their feelings are sincere.
“When it feels right, it feels right,” she said. “Why fix something that’s not broken? People often talk about ‘exploring options’ in the villa, but if a connection is strong, there’s no need to look elsewhere.”
Arabella also pointed to their lighthearted moments, such as their alpaca date, as evidence of their compatibility. “They bring out a playful, sweet side in each other that’s endearing to watch,” she added.
