Ekin-Su Culculoglu is the first bombshell for the new series of Love Island: All Stars, it’s been revealed.

The 2022 series favourite has already arrived in the Cape Town villa, hours before the first episode airs on ITV2.

It’s thought her entrance will be teased to fans at the close of the first episode.

The Sun have reported Ekin-Su’s arrival will cause chaos in the villa as she is handed control by host Maya Jama for an explosive game. 

A villa source said: ‘Ekin revelled in being the centre of attention and loved being the first bomb.

‘She strutted in with all eyes on her and then Maya gave her a big task to perform.

‘No one will expect what happens next, and drama queen Ekin is the perfect Islander to take the lead.’

In December it was revealed that Ekin had become the first contestant to sign up to Love Island: All Stars as the series returns for the second year. 

The former Love Island winner, 30, scooped the £50,000 cash prize with ex-boyfriend Davide Sanclimenti in 2022, however the pair split last January. 

She won over ITV2 viewers during her first appearance on the show where she and Davide, who famously accused Ekin of being a ‘liar’ and an ‘actress’, became known for their tempestuous romance.

After their bitter breakup in January 2024, Ekin starred on Celebrity Big Brother but was branded ‘fake’ by her housemates, with the reality star avoiding the show’s final following an ‘uncomfortable backlash.’

Ekin later admitted to being in ‘survival mode’ and said she was carrying a lot of ‘baggage’ because of her split from Davide, who was accused of being unfaithful during their relationship on multiple occasions.

But now, by returning to the show that made her name, Ekin hopes to be her own person again and finally find the right man to settle down with. 

A TV source told MailOnline: ‘Ekin-Su has been the number one priority for casting producers, they know fans would love to see her return to the villa.

‘She was so iconic during her first appearance on the show and now she’s single again at the perfect time.

‘The deal is agreed in principle, there’s still some details to sort out, but there’s huge hope she’s finally agreed to take a second chance at finding long-lasting love in front of the nation.

‘Ekin’s in her 30s now too, she really wants to meet someone genuine who she can settle down with and after seeing it happen for last year’s All Stars winners, she’s keeping her fingers crossed she can be next.’
