While it isn't clear what she said to rile up the Turkish beauty, Grace didn't hold back as she explained what went down in a KISS FM video.
Presenter Harriet Rose had asked: “In an interview with Cosmopolitan, you said that someone once threatened to sue you for talking about them on Saving Grace. Who was it?”
Grace hestitated before confessing, “F**k, oh it was Ekin-Su. She was like, 'Yeah, if you don’t take this down, we’ll sue you.'
“I didn’t take it down but she didn’t sue me, though.”
