Love Island’s Ekin-Su reacts as ‘copycat’ Mimii CRAWLS on the terrace for secret rendezvous with Ayo
LOVE Island legend Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu has reacted after Mimii Ngulube was branded her exact “copycat” after pulling out her signature move.
The ITV2 matchmaking show’s Instagram page joked how “Ekin-Su has another graduate,” after Mimii, 24, headed to the terrace for a secret rendezvous with Ayo Odukoya, also 24.
In true Ekin-Su style, the mental health nurse clambered across The Terrace’s white flooring while juggling a glass of prosecco.
She then propped herself up against one of the white sofas and waited for Ayo’s arrival.
Earlier in the episode fans watched her ask messenger Joey Essex, 33, to tell Ayo she was waiting for him in Love Island‘s renowned snogging spot.
Yet as the TOWIE star struggled to find the semi-pro footballer, viewers were left guessing as to whether Mimii’s plotting would actually come to fruition.
In response to the scenes – and the show post – Ekin-Su simply posted a wide-mouth Emoji.
Meanwhile, fans were left equally stunned at Mimii’s antics.
She is currently partnered up with footballer Paul Pogba’s body double Josh Oyinsan, 29 – yet trying her best to surpress her feelings for Ayo.
Yet fans blasted her as “mad” as she chose to kiss her former show partner in the Snog, Marry, Pie challenge.
It came just moments after Josh chose to have a smooch with Grace Jackson, 25, before marrying Mimii.
EKIN’S ANTICS
Viewers will well remember how the Turkish actress crawled on the Terrace floor to meet Jay Younger for a snog.
Fans begged producers to intervene as she scooted along on all fours like a commando to avoid detection by then show partner Davide Sanclimenti.
She donned a neon dress and skyscraper heels for her feat, leaving her brunette locks in loose waves over her shoulders.
The beauty repeated her feat twice before coming clean to her co-stars.
