Well, well, well, Ekin-Su CülcüloÄŸlu definitely brought the party to Dancing On Ice’s Dance Week – and her performance surely got pulses racing.
The 2022 winner and her pro partner Brendyn Hatfield brought disco to the ice with their routine to Car Wash by Dance X Winners.
Never one to pass up an opportunity to be glam and over the top, Ekin-Su began the performance standing in front of a bright pink car.
Professional Brendyn was shirtless throughout the routine, and the pair were joined by another shirtless pro in skinny jeans.
The Turkish actress as she beamed her way through the routine – before a special someone made a surprise appearance at the end.
Boyfriend rocked up shirtless, with the routine finishing with the lovebirds sharing a steamy snog.
Fans were living for the Italian stallion’s surprise cameo, with viewers branding them the ultimate ‘power couple.’
‘Davide showing up in the routine…iconique’, one viewer tweeted.
Another wrote: ‘Davide being on the ice at the end was iconic! Power couple’.
‘Love Ekin! And Davide at the end’, praised another fan, while one gave her 10 points alone for Davide’s cheeky appearance.
It was a miracle Ekin-Su was actually able to skate, despite not receiving the most glowing scores from the panel.
The 28-year-old revealed she had ‘pulled a muscle on my left leg’ while practising the routine before the actual performance.
Oti Mabuse told her during feedback: ‘I like to see you when you like yourself skating. Going forward, try not to depend on him – skate on your own.’
Christopher Dean said he enjoyed the performance, but said she had ‘a lot of support’ on the ice from backing skaters, adding that he would also like to see her skate on her own.
Ashley Banjo added: ‘I think your confidence did take a knock because of the injury, that I wasn’t aware of.’
In true Ekin-Su style, the performance was nothing less than iconic, and comes after the reality star assured she wasn’t done with her sexy outfits after receiving criticism for her skimp ensemble in week one.
‘Every woman, it doesn’t matter who you are, what your age is or how you look, should feel sexy,’ she said.
‘I think sexy gets taken differently. It’s not about cleavage, legs and bum.’
She continued to : ‘I’m not going to just back off any more, I’m going to be confident again.
‘I’m going to fight. I’m here, I’m ready. I’m going to shine and I’m going to be me again.’
Dancing On Ice continues Sunday on ITV1.
