EKIN-SU Culculoglu’s face appeared to betray her real feelings when the most popular Love Island contestants were announced in last night’s show.
The public voted for their favourite All Stars and host Maya Jama delivered the results ahead of a brutal dumping.
Elma Pazar and Luca Bish were crowned top girl and boy in front of their co-stars – though with that honour came a great responsibility.
They were tasked with eliminating three of the four lowest-scoring Islanders – eventually choosing Kaz Crossley, Montel McKenzie and Nas Majeed, while Tina Stinnes lived to love another day.
Many villa viewers have accused former winner Ekin-Su of playing a game ever since she arrived.
Her relationship with Curtis Pritchard has been called a “showmance”, while eyebrows have been raised over her constant meddling in other people’s drama.
When Elma was selected as the most popular girl, viewers sensed Ekin’s smile was fake and that she was actually surprised not to be chosen.
One person commented on X: “Ekin-Su just realised her plan ain’t working.”
Another said: “Ekin-Su in everyone business trying to position herself for the win. Nothing more.”
A third posted: “How was Ekin-Su not one of the least favourite girls?? I cannot stand her!!!”
Though three Islanders have departed, another two have arrived.
Sammy Root, who won series 10 with Jess Harding, and 2017 girl Danielle Sellers both made their entrance.
During his time in the villa, Sammy had a fling with Elma and an insider thinks they could build on that previous attraction.
A source said: “Elma has said the attraction with Sammy was nothing more than flirtation, as she’s conscious they have an age gap of nearly 10 years, but Love Island execs hope that under the South African sun, love could bloom.””
