Watching from the audience beau Davide Sanclimenti joined the crowd as they cheered on the reality star.

Taking to Twitter one fan wrote:  ‘I thought Ekin-Su was fantastic, harsh scores if you ask me’.

Semi-sheer: Ekin-Su also faced a backlash with viewers complaining about her racy costume with one claiming it was ‘not appropriate’ before the watershed

While another added:  ‘She was better than Siva [Kaneswaran] or Joey [Essex] – why such a low score? 

A furious fan commented: ‘So Someone in last place was kept in over someone who was in 4th place. Basically it’s a popularity and pity vote! Unfair! Ad not judged on the performance! I don’t think many people who who Ekin is, Ekin who?? Ekin-Su! You will get my vote next week!’

A fourth said: ‘I thought Ekin-Su’s performance deserved a bit of a higher score’ and a fifth wrote: ‘She deserved more than 21’. 

For the performance the reality star slipped into a nude illusion bodysuit which was adorned with metallic crystals and beads.

One viewer tweeted:  ‘I watched this performance with my 8 year old daughter, not appropriate at all. There’s a watershed for a reason’.

Another said: ‘The right decision [Ekin-Su being in the dance off] whose idea was it to have her writhing on the ice in an exposing costume?’.

And a third wrote: ‘Please put some clothes on next week, it’s not an educational program it’s nasty’.

However other viewers came to Ekin-Sue’s defence saying:  ‘People slut shamed Ekin-Su on Love Island and are now doing the same thing on Dancing On Ice’.

Obsessed with the Karen’s on the hashtag moaning about Ekin-Su’s outfit, what did you want her to wear a Sunday dress?’. 

Another said: ‘Everyone over the age of 30 telling Ekin Su to cover up, she’s wearing a body suit from the ankles to her neck but because it’s skin coloured you lot have a problem. Get a grip. 

Shocked: One viewer tweeted: ‘I watched this performance with my 8 year old daughter, not appropriate at all. There’s a watershed for a reason’

After the first six celebrities performed, it was time to find out who would be dancing again next week in the bottom two – and was at risk of being sent home.

And it was bad news for Ekin-Su, who looked gobsmacked at the news as she turned to talk with her dance partner Brendyn, while her boyfriend Davide was equally as unhappy while he watched from the audience.

The Love Island star admitted that she was ‘sad’ with the news, as presenters Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby questioned her after the result and attempted to reassure her.

‘I’m just sad, but, you know. I’ve been really ill as well and I know it’s not an excuse but I’ve just got back up, and yeah,’ said Ekin-Su.

Earlier in the episode beau Davide  made a cheeky quip after seeing his girlfriend’s racy outfit.

When asked by host Holly ‘How hot is your girlfriend?’ the Italian hunk, 27,  replied: ‘I know, I can’t wait to get her home’
