CELEBRITY Big Brother's grudges have been simmering for several days now but tonight two stars end up in open warfare.

The trouble began when Ekin made a brief remark about the show she won with ex Davide in 2022, saying of CBB: “This is not like Love Island.”

Zeze replied: “I would never do Love Island, but if you are in a hot country it is kinda like a free holiday, do you know what I mean?”

Ekin disagreed, saying icily: “It wasn’t really for me.";

Zeze shot back curtly: “Maybe we didn’t get to see that.”

More on Ekin-Su

The air suddenly turning distinctly unfriendly, Ekin replied: "It’s a reality show filmed 24/7 honey, you only see 40 minutes of it.” 

Zeze answered: “That’s what I just said, that’s why I said we didn’t get to see all of it.”

Ekin-Su agreed: “Yeah, you didn’t” Zeze has the final word, hitting back: “That’s what I just said!”

Later, a sneek peek shows Zeze and Marish talking on the sofas, with the Broadway star saying: "You can have a verbal tussle."

The online star replied: "We had one already in there."

There was also a huge hint that the feuding pair nominate one another with Zeze seen talking about a "clash of personalities".

Ekin meanwhile is heard saying: "I don't know who she is. She's playing a game and it's made me feel uneasy."

In a tense episode where we see who each star has nominated, the former soap actress also silences Corrie actor Colson Smith when he also brings up her former reality show.

The Craig Tinker star asked, referring to nominations: "On Love Island, do you have to say who you want to go on that?” 

Ekin replies: “This is not Love Island, this is not the same.” Colson adds: “But on that, do you have to say…”

But she cuts in and ends the conversation, saying: “It’s not the same, please just let it go.” 

Big Brother returns to ITV1 at ITVX tonight at 9pm

Celebrity Big Brother line-up

So who are the 13 stars expected to appear in the Celebrity Big Brother house? The Sun's Jamie Downham takes a look...

Sharon Osbourne - TV legend - who is a "house guest" on a megabucks deal - said she was doing the show for "a good time not a long time"

Louis Walsh - Irish boyband manager who has never knowingly backed down from a fight and is not above pulling rank over the double bed

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu - As we know from Love Island, the Ek-ster is capable of throwing about some dramatics to claw her way to the final

Levi Roots - Reggae Reggae Sauce sauce packs a bit of a kick, but its inventor seems quite mild-mannered. Will that change under pressure?

Fern Britton - The former This Morning star called out Phillip Schofield - don't think she won't do the same to anyone who tangles with her

Colson Smith - You'll probably know him best as Corrie's Craig Tinker - but prepare to find out he's not much like his character

David Potts - Ibiza Weekender's breakout star has left that show behind - as well as his trousers by the look of things

Gary Goldsmith - Kate Middleton's uncle is a big signing for ITV, but has proved a divisive booking among viewers

Marisha Wallace - It's not CBB without the role of 'American who doesn't know what they've let themselves in for' and she's doing brilliantly

Nikita Kuzmin - The Strictly pro is coming onto the show fresh off the show's tour. Poor lad probably just wants a rest

Zeze Mills - the social media star has a "no holds barred interview style" - and she hasn't backed away from calling people (well, Louis) out

Bradley Riches - The actor played kindly James McEwan in Netflix hit Heartstopper and he seems just as sweet in the house

Lauren Simon - She's a Real Housewives of Cheshire star and you really don't get on that show by being shy and retiring
