Davide supports Ekin-Su as she makes DOI debut with 'sexiest ever' routine

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu was supported by Davide Sanclimenti as she made her Dancing On Ice debut with the 'sexiest ever' routine.

The Love Island star was cheered on by her boyfriend Davide, who she met on the ITV2 show last year, as she performed a routine to Toxic by Britney Spears. Ekin-Su received a total of 21.5 points out of a possible 40 for her routine.

Host Holly Willoughby described it as the "sexiest routine ever" as Ekin-Su even crawled across the ice in a nod to her time on Love Island in a sparkly one piece which looked more like the bikinis she wore during her stint on the ITV2 summer show.

After completing her routine, Ekin-Su was supported by her family as well as her partner Davide who proudly gave her a standing ovation for her debut performance on the ITV1 skating show this evening.

The routine was also a hit with viewers, whilst Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean asked for more technical elements going forward.

"Ekin su is one of the most naturally entertaining people on TV #dancingonice #loveisland," one wrote, whilst a second added: "Ekin was absolutely incredible ATE THEM ALL UP! from the outfit and makeup to the dance itself. #DancingOnIce."

A third penned: "Want someone to be as proud of me as Davide is of ekin su #dancingonice #loveisland."

Ekin-Su previously revealed Davide is her number one supporter.

"I think my dad will be scared of me hurting myself! My friends will be supportive - they have seen me on Love Island and this is totally different. Davide will definitely be jealous that I’m doing this because he likes to move!" she said.

"It’ll be nice for him to see me skate, I think he might find that attractive - a bit of salsa music playing. I’d love for him to come and watch me rehearse, it’s exciting for him to see me because it’s an achievement. He’s my number one supporter."

She feels Love Island was a completely different experience for her than what Dancing On Ice will be.

She added: "Love Island you have an objective - to find the love of your life. You’re in a bubble. But the thing they have in common is that your mindset has to be focused. With Dancing on Ice you have to practise on getting better but with Love Island you have to practise letting go of everything else and focusing on your emotions and being in the moment."
