The former This Morning star, 66, says: "She's couple of times suggested that I could fit into one of her bikinis and get into the hot tub. There's no way I'm gonna do that, but she's asked me two or three times saying: 'We're going to do it, we're going to do it and I'm going to make you over. I'm going to put you in different clothes.' It scares me, I don't want to do any of it and I'm not going to do any of it!"
Viewers were left shocked over the first look clip as Ekin-Su and Fern have appeared to have built a friendship in the house, even bonding over the reality star's life after Love Island in a heart-to-heart. Taking to Twitter, now X, one person said: "Fern has had really nice chats with Ekin-Su and now she is nominating her? #CBBLL #CBB", another wrote: "Fern has nominated EKIN-SU #CBBUK #CBB #CBBLL" with shocked emojis while a different fan added: "NOT Fern nominating Ekin Su!?! The mother off has begun omg #CBB #CBBUK."

TOWIE's Chloe Brockett makes cheeky dig at Saffron Lempriere during filmingIt comes as Sharon Osbourne revealed exactly why she picked Kate Middleton's uncle to be the first Celebrity Big Brother housemate to face eviction later this week.
The Celebrity Big Brother lodger appeared on a live feed to all the housemates where she explained her reason for voting for Gary to be up for eviction this week. She was emotional as she explained why she thought he should be nominated.
Speaking to Big Brother, and not knowing Gary and everyone was watching, she said: "The housemate that I nominate is Gary. I don't think he's that comfortable here, I think he's awkward with himself being here too. It's very tough for him; he told me about things.
"He's brave to have come in here. I somehow don't think this is the place for him. He's the oddball. If I went into his world, and suddenly plonked myself in the middle of his boardrooms, I'd feel the same. I think he's insecure too." As they all looked at Gary, he admitted: "To be fair, this isn't my world. I'd go back to normal life."
