Fans send their support to Love Island star Ekin-Su

Fans took to the replies – with some even revealing that they’d been on the same flight as the 29-year-old Love Island star.

“We were on the same flight and I’ve never felt more scared in my whole life and I’ve always loved flying. It has genuinely changed my opinion of flying. It was some sort of freak accident as it doesn’t happen often, but being helpless and in the air was horrid. Get home safe,” one fan said.

We were on the same flight as you guys and I’ve never experienced fear like it. We’ve just arrived home now so hopefully you’ll be out of there soon if you haven’t already left. You’ll be glad to know they did send a different plane. Safe journey,” another wrote. 

“Oh my god that sounds like a nightmare! Hope you two make it home safely!” a third wrote.

Ekin-Su’s holiday comes not long after it was revealed that she and Davide had split – although we now know that this was temporary.

Taking to Instagram back in June, Davide revealed that the couple – who had won Love Island in 2022 – had split.

“Ekin-Su and I are no longer together. I am grateful for the memories and opportunities we shared together and I wish her nothing but the best,” he said.

“I would like for everybody to respect this decision during this difficult time, I will continue to support Ekin in any way possible,” he then continued.

However, the couple are now back together – as proven by their recent jaunt to Bodrum together.
