Dancing On Ice has been hit with a number of Ofcom complaints after Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu took to the ice in the first episode of the series.
The celebrity ice skating competition returned for another year on Sunday evening with a star-studded launch on ITV.
The Love Island winner, 28, recreated her notorious villa crawl during the routine - which host Holly Willoughby described as the show's 'sexiest ever skate' - only to find herself in next week's dreaded skate off.
However, Ekin-Su's performance and daring outfit on the ITV show has now sparked 112 complaints to the TV regulator, as viewers at the time claimed it was 'not appropriate' before the watershed.
Ekin-Su scored a total vote of 21.5 points from the judges, as Ashley Banjo gave her a 5.5, Oti Mabuse scored her a 6, Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean both a 5.
Yet, it proved to be a tough start to the series for Love Island reigning champ Ekin-Su, who landed in the bottom two after she received the least amount of public votes.
Ekin-Su appeared noticeably gobsmacked at the result, which put her at risk of going home in the first week, and quickly turned to talk with her dance partner Brendyn Hatfield.
Ekin-Su's fellow Love Island reigning champion boyfriend Davide Sanclimenti was among those watching from the audience as they cheered on the reality star and also appeared equally unhappy at the public vote.
The following day the Italian hunk appeared on Good Morning Britain to lend his support to Ekin-Su after she narrowly avoided an early exit from the ITV show.
The Italian star sat down with hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls and said he thought Ekin-Su ‘smashed it’ despite the result.
He said: “I was not surprised she could actually dance on the ice because I've been following her over the training, but what I was actually proud of was that she entered into the character and did a very good performance.
“The fact that now she’s in the skate-off, naturally she’s a bit sad. Last night we had a long talk, but I know that she knows she’s a strong woman and she’s very determined.
“She knows what she wants and I think this will now push her to be better and better week by week.”
