Growing Eggplant, also Aubergine

Have plenty of fruit on my lebanese eggplant bush but after the first deep purple fruit, all are now a dirty yellow colour. Is this because of too much rain or is there another reason ?

I have had the same thing happen, I can only think it is some inconsistancy with temp or rains. It affected some and not others and I think for memory it wasnt all the fruit on the plant, only some.
