Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu has pulled out of her Celebrity Big Brother final commitments after struggling with her post-eviction backlash.
The former Love Island winner will not make an appearance for the show's final on Friday evening which comes just days after she didn't show up for her scheduled appearance on Lorraine. The 29-year-old has not addressed her no show and has now raised concerns after keeping a low profile, the Mirror reports.
A source told the MailOnline: 'It’s been a bit of a tough couple of weeks for Ekin-Su. She could have played the sob story card but has remained tight-lipped publicly and expressed to those around that she’s aware she must be accountable for a few things that have happened.
"Understandably she is feeling vulnerable, but is using this time to gather her thoughts, and figure out next steps, which is why her management believes withdrawing her from the final is the most sensible move."
She is said to have asked her management team for "some time to reflect" and doesn't want to appear on Friday's night final which comes one week on from her eviction from the Big Brother house.
It comes after Layton Williams hit out at Ekin-Su for 'blaming the edit' over what happened in the house with Marisha Wallace prior to the eviction, during a tense moment on spin-off series Late & Live.
Big Brother host AJ Odudu also appeared to question Ekin-Su over her comments about viewers not seeing everything which left viewers divided over how the interview went.
