"It’s been a whirlwind six months, but I’m solely focused on my career right now, and taking back ownership of who I am.
"I felt incredibly honoured to be invited to the Tony Awards, and it was an honour to be able to celebrate those in attendance last night."
An insider also added to the publication: "US Execs can’t seem to get enough of Ekin-Su’s feisty and funny persona, which makes her a dream booking for their reality formats, and she’s in talks with some big agencies about some US shows."
Ekin is on course to release her first book this summer titled Be Your Own Best Friend.
