Love Island Ekin-Su's real age shocks viewers- as bombshell causes drama in the villa

Latest Love Island edition Ekin-Su has already ruffled some feathers in the villa when she made her debut last night.

The brunette bombshell, 27, made it clear she wasn't on the show for friendship when she arrived with fellow new edition Afia.

But it was the actress' age that got viewers talking.

One person said on Twitter : "In short, Ekin-Su ain’t the right age."

Another person wrote: "Ekin-Su needs to collect her age mate."

One person seemed unimpressed by the actress' behaviour writing: "I’m sorry but Ekin-Su seems very immature for her age."

Age seemed to be an issue of the night, as many viewers noticed that Ekin-Su is the same age as Italian heart throb Davide, who is currently coupled up with Gemma Owen, 19, daughter of footie legend Michael Owen.

Gemma was fuming in last night's episode when Ekin-Su discovered her age.

The new edition then said Gemma was "was like a little sister she could look after."

Sharing her thoughts on Ekin-Su in the beach hut, Gemma said: "She seems like a lovely girl, but yeah, very forward, going to go for what she wants...yeah that's annoyed me a bit."

The following day, as the actress worked out with Davide, Gemma said: "I feel like if it was the other girl and she was getting to know him, because she's like a genuine...she'd done it in a nice way.

"She's made it very clear she's like 'I'm fiery, I'm this, I'm that,' she made a comment yesterday like 'oh you can come to me for advice and I can be your big sister.' Who the f**k are you talking to? You might be trying to be nice but I don't appreciate patronising s**t like that."

Viewers seemed to be backing Ekin-Su and Davide as a couple, pointing out the age difference between the international dressage rider and Davide.

One person wrote: "Ekin-Su comes in and Davide is now worried about age?"

A second person quipped: "Had a feeling Ekin-su and Davide could easily get together and their actually the same age."

One viewer said: "Rooting for Ekin-su and Davide because they’re the same age."

Elsewhere on the show, show fans were left cringing as Liam chatted up the two new bombshells on his dates, after he was left single when Davide chose to couple up with Gemma.

During drinks with Ekin-Su and Afia, viewers claimed that Liam gave them 'the ick' - and it was all because of his voice.

As he approached the bombshells, Liam's voice seemed to change as he spoke in a much softer tone than usual.

Ever the gentleman, the Welsh hunk shook Afia and Ekin-Su's hands, kissed their cheeks, and made sure to ask lots of questions - but viewers couldn't help but feel distracted by his voice as they claimed he had switched up his dulcet tones in a bid to seem more gentle.
