KERRY Katona believes Ekin-Su shouldn’t have snubbed the live final of Celebrity Big Brother.
Ekin, 29, decided to skip the reunion with her fellow housemates after receiving backlash during her time in the famous house.
After her shock eviction, some fans claimed hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best were harsh on her during the post-eviction show, with Will branding her Ekin Boo Hoo.
But Kerry, 43, who has appeared on the show herself in the past, thinks she should have faced the cast and hosts head on.
Asked if Ekin had made the right decision, Kerry, who was attending the Inspirational Women Awards, told The Sun: “Absolutely not.
“You know what? She should have given two finger up to Will. That's what I would do. And go, 'Look, f*** you lot. It's my moment, I'm turning up’.

“You shouldn't go onto a show like that if you're not prepared to. I think that's my opinion. I've done all the shows going you can possibly think of. There's nothing left for me to do anymore.”
Not a fan
Kerry had previously made her feelings clear on Ekin after she nominated Louis Walsh.
She raged: "How two-faced is Ekin-Su? Oh my God, I can’t believe how two faced... What a game player are you?
“She was so far up Louis Walsh’s a**e while Sharon Osbourne was there. Then she’s turned on him.

Mum-of-five Kerry also took offence to Ekin’s comments about women doing OnlyFans – having made a million from the platform herself.
Kerry added: “Everyone is going to see how two-faced she is. I’m not ashamed to say I use my sexuality to make money.
“Don’t pretend you’re something you’re not. She’s got a see-through bra on twerking, is that not selling sex?
“You are giving it away for free whilst I am getting paid for it!”
Ekin speaks out
Ekin broke her silence today and explained why she had skipped the show.
She explained: "I know it's unlike me to hide away, but I've been taking some time to reflect. Sometimes in our lowest moments, we learn the most important lessons about ourselves."
The Turkish actresses continued: "I hope you don't think I was selfish for setting boundaries and putting my own needs first last night. I'm fully aware that not everybody will understand my absence, or think it was the right decision to make, BUT it was the right decision for me.
"I chose to remove myself from a potentially uncomfortable situation that I preferred to avoid. I'm proud of myself for recognising what I need during this time, despite the hate that might come my way."
She added: "Accountability is key and when I'm ready, I will give some context around these past few weeks. Thank you to everybody who has sent kindness my way, I see you, and I appreciate you. The new chapter starts now."
