"What do you want me to do?"— Ekin-Su and Curtis discuss their relationship in Love Island: All Stars season 2
In Love Island: All Stars season 2, Ekin-Su broke down over Curtis and Danielle's growing connection and needed to be consoled by several cast members including Ronnie and Luca.
Later in the episode, Curtis expressed frustration over the rest of the villa chiming in on his and Ekin-Su's situation, prompting the latter to have a private conversation with him. As things got heated, Curtis told her that since they were both emotional, they should continue their conversation tomorrow.
Ekin-Su noted she didn't want to do that because she knew what he was going to say. The Love Island: All Stars season 2 star noted she knew he would tell her that he wanted to get to know Danielle but the cast member denied her claims.
Ekin-Su told him she wasn't on the show to argue with him and didn't understand what he wanted.
"What do you want me to do?" she asked.
Curtis told her he didn't want her to do anything, while Ekin-Su stated that was who she was and if Curtis couldn't see that, she didn't know what else she could do. She told him she didn't know whether to jump through "hoops" for him while the male islander noted she didn't need to do anything for him.
She told the Love Island: All Stars cast member he was "looking into everything" and Curtis stated that was something he often did. Ekin-Su said she wished her parents were here and Curtis said he was thinking the same and wanted to call his mother.
The argument took a turn as the two spoke about their parents and Curtis told her he had once cut his mother out of her life. The two shared a kiss and made up as the Love Island: All Stars season 2 villa cheered them on.
Fans of the reality show commented on Ekin-Su meltdown and making up with Curtis later and termed her reaction "Fake."
