Love Island’sEkin-Su Cülcüloğlu is working on her turns and spins ahead of her next performance on Dancing on Ice.
Ekin-Su, who starred in season eight of the ITV dating show with Luca Bish, Gemma Owen and Andrew Le Page, is currently competing on the skating show with her partner, Brendyn Hatfield.
Ahead of this weekend’s live show, Ekin-Su, 28, was snapped rehearsing with Brendyn, 36, on the ice, where she looked to be working on her spinning.
The actress, who previously insisted she was going to win the show, could be seen sporting a grey jumper with “Paris” plastered across the chest, bright coral leggings and brown ice skates.
Meanwhile, Brendyn could be seen in grey trousers and a black jumper as he watched Ekin-Su, who keeping her balance on the ice.
During the show’s first performance, which also saw Nile Wilson, Joey Essex, Siva Kaneswaran, Patsy Palmer, and Michelle Heaton take to the ice, Ekin-Su danced to Britney Spears’ Toxic.
Judges Jayne Torvill, Christopher Dean, Ashley Banjo and Oti Mabuse awarded the reality TV star 21 points, which put her fourth on the leaderboard behind Siva, Joey and Nile.
However, Ekin-Su is in danger of going home after a public vote landed her in the skate-off this weekend.
She will now face one of five celebrities who will compete next week.
While Ekin-Su’s performance turned heads online, with host Holly Willoughby describing it as the "sexiest routine ever", her chosen costume divided fans.
The very skimpy sequinned thong leotard featured a nude illusion, which naturally sparked some concern amongst fans who questioned whether it was appropriate.
"Not an outfit for a family show, shame you on Ekin Su," wrote one person online as another said: “Oh come on. It's week one. Ekin Sue your not going to get more points for the lack of outfit!”
“I'm calling OFCOM about Ekin Su performance. Not the sexual content but the lack of skating,” another added.
Ironically, the outfit did actually spark around 100 Ofcom complaints, which Ekin-Su commented on following the show.
“You know what? If you have ’em flaunt them,” she said.
“I mean if you’ve got a nice bum and you look sexy in a unitard, why not. Who cares?”
Despite the criticism, Ekin-Su’s boyfriend, Davide Sanclimenti, loved the outfit and made a racy comment while chatting with Holly.
“How fit is your missus?” Holly questioned, to which Davide responded: “Looking forward to going home.”
His joke earnt laughs from both the audience and Holly, who replied: “Yeah, I bet! We’ll make sure she keeps the outfit.”
“She was wonderful, very beautiful, and I was proud of her seeing her dancing on the ice,” Davide added.
