She clashed with the likes of Colson Smith and Zeze Millz over her previous appearances on reality shows.
She and housemate Fern Britton didn't see eye to eye either.
After a huge row with her former pal, actress Marisha Wallace, the West End star selected her in the face to face nominations.
After being booted out, Ekin-Su said the way the show was edited portrayed her negatively, but her claim didn't wash with Late & Live guest Layton Williams who effectively told her to drop the excuses.

Now Dragons' Den star Levi, evicted the same night as Ekin Su, has defenced his former housemate and revealed why he looked out for her.
He told "I took Ekin-Su under my wing, I told her she was like a daughter to me.
"I had to protect her in certain ways by having certain conversations with her so she didn’t feel alone, because she felt like she was isolated in some kind of way.”
When they were reunited following their double eviction, Levi did his best to boost her spirits.

He said: “Deservedly, I’m rooting for Louis.
"When somebody can be themselves totally and be truthful in every single way, including if it puts someone nose out of joint.
"In this world when people play games and lie to others and not show their true feelings, it’s refreshing when you meet somebody who tells you as it is. We’re always crying out that for people to be honest, including politicians, we blame them for telling lies.
"So when we meet somebody who tells it how it is, why should we vilify them.”
Louis was previously labelled the 'most evil' housemate in a recent challenge as well as the 'laziest' housemate for not helping out with the washing and cleaning up.
