Love Island’s Ekin-Su dated Made In Chelsea star before entering the villa
LOVE Island bombshell Ekin-Su enjoyed a string of dates with Made In Chelsea star Josh Patterson before entering the villa.
The 27-year-old, who has taken the villa by storm, wowed the posh hunk, 32, during their secret meet ups last year.
A source said: “They went on a few dates and got on really well.
“Josh has nothing but good things to say about Ekin-Su, but he’s a little bit embarrassed that she’s suddenly everywhere.”
Josh, who went to the same school as Prince Charles, appeared on Made In Chelsea between 2015-2018.
He dated co-star Binky Felstead and welcomed daughter India, now five, with her before their split a year after her birth.

The Sun previously told how Ekin-Su had also dated another reality star – James Lock from Towie.
Ekin-Su stirred up trouble in the ITV2 villa just days after she arrived when she sneaked off for secret kisses with Jay Younger while coupled up with Davide Sanclimenti.
She then coupled up with Jay but ended things in dramatic fashion when he expressed interest in getting to know Paige.
The Turkish actress then coupled up with newbie Charlie, but viewers think she might end up with Davide again.
