However, viewers were quick to take to Twitter to moan that they belived the reality star was overmarked.
In week one of the show, Ekin made her Dancing On Ice debut in a racy sheer sparkly leotard for a Britney inspired routine dubbed ‘the sexiest ever’.
But it didn’t go down so well with everyone, as the show received over 100 Ofcom complaints following the routine – and the Turkish beauty found herself with the lowest number of public votes.
She certainly brought some fire to the rink, stepping out in a nude mesh unitard with a dramatically embellished detail.

The actress crawled across the ice during the performance, an ode to the famous Love Island scene in which she crawled around the villa’s terrace to kiss fellow islander Jay Younger behind partner Davide Sanclimenti’s back.
The sultry routine also saw her lie on her back and be swept up into partner Brendyn’s arms, with a slew of animated facial expressions.
Ekin-Su and Brendyn were marked middle of the leaderboard by the judges, who gave a score of 21.5.
But while they agreed that the star certainly had sex appeal, they were hoping for a little more from the performance and she landed in the skate off.
