Love Island's Ekin-Su shares epic throwback snap before ITV2 villa

Love Island 's Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu posted a cute throwback photo with her dad before entering the Spanish villa.

The 27-year-old already boasts 350k Instagram followers and eagle-eyed fans have spotted a sweet snap she posted almost three years ago.

The black and white photograph features a young Ekin-Su, showing off her natural curly hair, standing alongside her dad.

Looking as cute as ever, Ekin-Su is wearing a dungaree dress with a striped long sleeved top.

She captioned the post: "Ben ve babam ‘ Me and dad"

She posted another cute photo where she's just four smiling into the camera.

Alongside it she wrote: "Bazen tekrar bu yasa donmek istiyorum... Hersey masum, dunyadan haberim yok. 'So there’s me at just at 4'"

Ekin-Su is one of the latest cast members to enter the Love Island villa and is already causing quite the stir.

The actress entered alongside lounge host Afia Tonkmor and the pair have already ruffled some feathers.

The two of them first went on a date with Welsh islander Liam Llewellyn where Ekin-Su told him she was getting lost in his eyes.

Since then she has made it clear to the girls that she isn't there to make friends and is instead there to find the love of her life.

But this hasn't sat well with some of them, with 19-year-old Gemma Owen saying that Ekin-Su was patronising her when she referred to her as her 'little sister'.

Ekin-Su has already been making moves on Davide Sanclimenti, who is currently coupled up with Gemma, by working out with him in the villa's gym area in front of the other contestants.

However, she also has her sights set on real estate agent Andrew Le Page, asking him if she was in his top three.

It looks as though Ekin-Su will get om just fine in the villa as she is no stranger to the showbiz industry.

The newbie has been working in Turkey for the last two years as an actress, mostly appearing in soap operas.

She even revealed during her date with Liam that she's has some bizarre roles, including playing a serial killer but even this didn't seem to put him off.

Despite already causing some drama, some viewers think it's exactly what the show needed as some labelled it as boring before Ekin-Su entered.

One fan of the show tweeted: "Ekin-Su adding much needed spice to this season. yes give me drama please!! also loving afia she seems very sweet #LoveIsland"

While another took to Twitter to say: "Ekin-Su really bringing the drama we needed rn #LoveIsland" as third person wrote: "Not Ekin-Su telling Gemma that she can be her little sister after flirting with Davide in front of Gemma! This is the drama we needed #LoveIsland"

Ekin-Su regularly posts to her Instagram page and has been open about her breast augmentation and getting veneers around eight months before entering the villa.

She went for her veneers that cost £4,000 at Dental Design in Antalya, Turkey as well as getting her breast surgery in Istanbul at Comfort Zone surgery.

She went for 10 veneers on her top teeth as well as 11 on her bottom.
