ERCAN Ramadan is a former builder turned TV personality, who married Vicky Pattinson in August 2024.
His superstar wife will be the focus of a groundbreaking new show named Vicky Pattinson: My Deepfake Sex Tape, which will see her create and release her own AI-edited sex tape.
Ercan was born on September 6, 1993, and gained fame as a cast member on the hit TV show The Only Way is Essex.
Before finding fame on TOWIE, he had spent years working as a builder and labourer.
In 2019, Ercan revealed that he had been approached to join Love Island in 2019 but decided to turn down the opportunity.
He had started dating Vicky that same year, so he wanted to respect his relationship with her.
Ercan and Vicky moved in together in August 2019, after dating for just eight months.
They split briefly in 2020 before reconciling, thanks to attending couples therapy together.
Vicky revealed that they split because they “making each other happy”, before realising that they were wrong.
In November 2020, during an interview with Closer, Vicky opened up about their relationship.
She said: “We’re probably closer than a couple who have been together for less than two years should be, but I’m really happy with him.
“I’m just pleased to see that the more I learn about him, the more I love him. I’m a very lucky bug.”
In February 2022, Vicky announced that Ercan had proposed to her in Dubai.
She took to Instagram to say: “I choose you and I’ll choose you over and over without pause, without a doubt, in a heartbeat… It’ll always be you.
“To our forever @ercan_ram.”
She also shared an image of her ring, with the caption, “I do…
“Sorry guys, I don’t want to bore anyone with engagement spam… but I’m just not over this beautiful moment, my beautiful man or this beautiful ring…
“Thank you all for your incredibly kind messages… We’re on cloud 9.”
In 2022, she also started the process of freezing her eggs and said that she wanted to be “transparent” about how it works.
She said that she received “some really horrible messages” in response to going public with her choice, but remains convinced that there are “many different routes to motherhood”.
Ercan and Vicky finally married in London on August 24, 2024.
They tied the knot at Marylebone Town Hall, in an event attended by Faye Winter, Pete Wicks, Ferne McCann and Danielle Armstrong.
After marrying, they honeymooned in Italy.
Vicky will star in a Channel 4 documentary named Vicky Pattinson: My Deepfake Sex Tape.
The show sees Vicky creating her own deepfake porn video before releasing it on social media.
She hopes that the show will show how “vulnerable all of us are” to online abuse.
Opening up about the moment that she posted the video, Vicky said that she felt she was at the “point of no return”.
She said: “What struck me most was how helpless I felt once it was released – it gave me a glimpse into the powerlessness victims experience.”
Vicky had told Ercan about her plan to make the controversial series just a month into their marriage.
Speaking about the impact that the video had on their relationship, Vicky said: “I understand that — this hasn’t been very nice for my family.
“I don’t think this is how we pictured the first six months of our marriage.
“Ercan was there for me a lot.
“He features in the documentary but he had his limits, so I was mindful of that.”
A DISGUSTED football fan has told how a vile man performed a sex act on her while his groping pals surrounded her on a train.
Shocked Larah Rapelli, 24, piled into the packed carriage on her way to watch her beloved AC Milan take on Spanish side Girona in the Champions League at the San Siro on January 22.
But moments after the doors closed on the Metro, she found herself surrounded by a gang of groping men.
After finally breaking free and getting off the train, she found out one of the disgusting individuals had performed a sex act on her clothes.
Brave Larah revealed the full story in a video – which she filmed “two minutes after it happened” – telling her 40,000 Instagram followers: “I was going to the Milan match and you guys won’t believe the s*** that happened.
“There were some disgusting men who were leaning on me, so I was elbowing them, I was avoiding them… but we were all crowded together so it was really difficult to avoid them.
“And one disgusting guy really did the worst thing to me.
“I got off the train and hadn’t noticed anything, but a Spanish couple told me ‘you have something on your trousers’.
“I look at my hands… I was disgusted. I can’t think of it without getting the shivers.
“I don’t know how not even how it happened… basically the person behind me had [performed a sex act].
“I have no words… I had to dry my hands. These guys gave me tissues to dry myself as I was all wet.”
A traumatised Larah continued: “I’ve never been through something so disgusting.
“I still feel dirty.
“I would really like to forget this thing but I want to tell you because I hope it never happens to you. I really have no words.”
Captioning her video, Larah urged victims to unite, while defiantly vowing to find her assaulter.
She wrote: “Before the MILAN – GIRONA match this s*** happened…
“I want to get this to as many people as possible to always have an extra eye of attention wherever you go.
“Unfortunately sometimes even with a thousand eyes it is not possible to stop certain actions…
“But we can all unite to have more control and strength against this s***…
“I hope to find you and to spread your face everywhere.”
Larah confirmed in a comment to her original post that she had contacted the police, claiming to have six eye-witnesses – three of whom can attest to what they saw on her trousers.
TV Presenter Cherry Healey has shared the terrifying moment a man tried to force his way into her car.
The Inside The Factory host posted a video on Instagram admitting her fears that “things are getting worse” for women as she opened up about what had gone down.
Talking to the camera while sitting in her car, Cherry said: “I questioned whether or not to share this, but I often don’t, for rightly or wrongly.
“But I think sometimes it’s important to share things like this so that if it happens to someone else, they don’t think they’re alone.”
Admitting she didn’t want to be “seen as a fear monger”, Cherry explained: ” I just dropped my friend off at the tube station, I could see she’d gone out. She’d got to the side of the road. It was all fine.
“A guy approached my car door, and luckily I’d just central locked the car really quickly, and he started to try and get into the car.
“I was like, No go away!”
“I’m sharing this particularly because it’s in the middle of the day, broad daylight,” she adding, noting she did nothing to provoke the situation.
“Sometimes you hear people saying, you know, what was she wearing? You know, was she out in a bad she had a few drinks? Was she walking through the park late at night?
“If someone attacks you, it is not your fault. It’s nothing to do with you. I was in my car middle of the day.”
“In fact, can I ask you, do you feel like it’s getting worse at the moment?” she asked her followers. “If so, do you have any hypothesis as to why this is happening?
“I feel like there’s more shouting, more cackles, more attempts to kind of approach in an aggressive way. I would not go for a run after the sun went down for all of the money in the world right now.”
Asking if she was “fear mongering” by sharing her experience, fans were quick to share their support in her comments, at times even sharing their own similar interactions.
Kate Lawler wrote: “This is awful I’m so sorry lovely 
”
A fan shared: “My 14 year old daughter was grabbed by an older boy in school recently. It’s the Andrew Tate issue. They think they can do what they like.”
Another agreed and added: “This happens all the time. Lock the door all day every day.”
“It’s not just London. Something similar happened to me at a motorway services in Nottinghamshire,” noted a third. “I was on my way to a work meeting, wearing trousers and a blazer (but that doesn’t matter) and was followed to my car.
“He told me to open my window so he could speak to me (I said no), asked if I was single, and stood in the way so I couldn’t leave the parking space until he realised my no really did mean no.
“This all happened on the other side of a hedge from a police station. Take care out there everyone.”
“I absolutely feel like it’s getting worse. It feels like there’s some really angry men out there who want to remind women that they are in charge,” said a fourth.
