Love Island's Gemma Owen rattled by 'patronising' Ekin-Su as viewers lap up the tension

Gemma Owen was left rattled by Love Island new arrival Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, branding her patronising for describing her as 'like a little sister.'

After viewers got a glimpse of Ekin-Su and fellow bombshell new arrival Afia right before credits rolled on Tuesday's episode, they were seen on screen properly on Thursday as both went on dates with Liam. And, while those went well, it was Ekin-Su's entrance to the villa that really caused fur to fly as she made her intentions clear from the off.

The 27-year-old actress made no bones about the fact she wasn't on Love Island to 'make friends,' which got the girls, including Michael Owen's daughter Gemma, feeling threatened straight away. Ekin-Su then made Gemma's first impression of her even less favourable when, after discovering she was only 19, said she 'was like a little sister she could look after.'
