Loose Women fans slam 'uncomfortable' Ekin-Su interview with Nadia Sawalha

Loose Women viewers have slammed an "uncomfortable" interview between Love Island's Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Nadia Sawalha. The winner of the popular ITV2 dating show sat down with partner, Davide Sanclimenti, to talk about their time on the show on Monday, August 8.

Nadia, a self-confessed fan of the show, said that she thought this year's series was "the best Love Island in years" and that she and her husband had considered cancelling their holiday so they didn't miss the last two weeks. However, the interview quickly turned awkward when Nadia turned to Ekin-Su and Davide and added: "What I loved was, it taught me a lesson because I really judged both of you.

"When you first came on, I didn't like either of you. I judged you [Davide] because you were good looking and muscly and a bit full of yourself so I thought, 'I don't like him'. And I ended up liking you both the most. So I love that when I'm proved wrong."

Whilst the pair didn't appear phased by Nadia's comments, viewers of the daytime show quickly took to social media and branded her comments "rude" and "uncomfortable".

Later in the interview, Ekin-Su was asked about her relationships with the other girls in the villa, and she replied: "I liked them all. I love Tasha, Gemma, Indiyah, Danica." In response, Nadia reminded Ekin-Su she wasn't her favourite at first replied: "See that's why didn't like you, I didn't feel like you were a woman's woman."

One person wrote: "Very uncomfortable when that woman on the panel kept saying she didn’t like Ekin Su like okay you didn’t like her keep it to yourself no need to tell her that more than once."

Another agreed and said: "Why does Nadia think it's OK to keep saying I didn't like you. It's rude and annoying keep that to yourself."

A third added: "Stfu Nadia no need to tell Ekin you didn’t like her at the start."

Elsewhere in the interview, Ekin-Su and Davide confirmed that they were planning to move in together. You can read more about that here.
