Viewers saw Ekin-Su flirting with the pro dancer during last night's instalment of the ITV show.

Speaking about it last night, host Will Best asked what Layton thought about it all, to which Layton replied: "That was really awkward to see.

"By the way just because someone's got a partner, it doesn't mean that they're necessarily interested in you anyway.

"I don't really like that kind of angle. No shade... Full shade.

"But then to go into the bedroom while he's changing, I'm just like, 'Girl, give the boy some privacy'.

"To be giving him compliments, I'm like 'read the room', and Nikita was just like, 'thank you so much, peace'."

SPOT ON

Before Sharon Osbourne was evicted from the house on Wednesday night, she had to pick one person who had the biggest impact on her.

The reality legend picked Nikita.

After Sharon left, Nikita went into the bedroom and Ekin-Su followed him and said: "What Sharon said about you is spot on.

"I think she did the right thing.

"You're a good person and you have good energy and I can trust you."

Nikita replied: "Thank you Ekin-Su, that's really sweet of you."

Ekin added: "It's because you deserve it." 

EAGLE EYES

Earlier this week, Louis Walsh asked about a potential romance between Ekin and Nikita.

But the Love Island star replied: "No he's got a girlfriend. I'd never do that."

Back in October, The Sun revealed that Nikita is dating model and university graduate Lauren Jaine.

During the first episode of the revived series, Louis suggested that sparks were flying between Nikita and Ekin.

As he watched the Celebrity Big Brother line-up enter the compound alongside Sharon, he said: "I think I've spotted a romance. A budding romance.

"I think it's Ekin-Su and Nikita. He's always really close to her. I don't blame him."

Lauren later posted a picture of him looking serious with the words: "Me when I see Nikita doing the washing up in the BB house when he doesn't do it at home."

Ekin split from her ex Davide Sanclimenti back in January after two years.
