She might have made things ‘official’ with Curtis Pritchard after a week in the Love Island: All Stars villa but Ekin-Su Culculoglu launched herself into the show’s legendary kissing game on Thursday night.
In doing so, she left her fellow contestants cringing, with some unable to watch as the season eight star, 30, planted a series of sloppy snogs on the boys.
The game sees each girl step up one by one to kiss each boy as they stand blindfolded in a row with those receiving the snogs made to guess who provided them.
It is up to the girls, of course, to decide how much passion they put into their effort with some, generally those in a more committed couple, opting for an innocent peck.
Ekin-Su has been coupled up with Curtis, 28, and even seemed to take things to another level over a fireside discussion this week.
But the former winner of the reality show did not hold back as she laid it on thick with a string of sloppy smooches during the game.

Sporting an orange bikini, the Celebrity Big Brother star even grinded on a few of the boys while giving out the snogs.
Throughout the ordeal, her fellow islanders made anguished faces and covered their eyes, with some of the sounds coming through on the clip-on microphones also decidedly disturbing.
Fellow season eight contestant Luca Bish, 25, received a particularly strong smooch which left those watching in a state of shock.
Elma Pazar, 31, fell to the ground in horror during the racy display while Gabby Allen, 32, decided she had seen enough and covered her face.
Ekin-Su’s performance was not the end of the drama in the kissing game on Thursday with Elma left fuming after her All Stars partner Ronnie Vint was kissed by ex-girlfriend Harriett Blackmore.
The season 11 contestant arrived as a bombshell mid-game and saved Ronnie until last, giving him an enthusiastic peck.
Ronnie then blundered by guessing exactly who the secret snogger was and scoring the effort a 10 out of 10.
Harriett and Ronnie left the villa together last year but separated amid cheating accusations levelled at Ronnie.

Ekin-Su’s remarkable kissing display came as a particularly huge shock given she decided to take her budding romance with Curtis to the next level in Wednesday night’s Love Island episode.
Catching up by the pool in the evening Ekin-Su asked him: ‘I just want to know if you thought it’s going too slow or fast…’
Curtis then sweetly replied saying: ‘I don’t think we’re going too fast or too slow, I’m a one woman man and I wanna throw myself into this with no barriers…’
A delighted Ekin then added: ‘I’m invested in basically you, I’m being vulnerable with you, I can’t give that to another man, maybe I am closed off… that’s how I feel.’
Curtis agrees saying: ‘Yeah, I’d say I’m closed off, it’s nice!’
Ekin-Su laughed and demanded: ‘Shut up and kiss me!’
It came after the pair went on their first official date together on Tuesday night’s show.
The pair had been going from strength to strength and when Ekin-Su got a text on Tuesday night’s episode, things got even better.

It came after the pair went on their first official date together on Tuesday night’s show and visited an alpaca farm
She read: ‘Ekin-Su, it’s time for you and Curtis to head out for your first date. Please get ready to leave the Villa. #FirstDateFeels #Al-Pak-A-YourAGame’
An excited Curtis then replied: ‘I’ve been wanting to go on a date, a different vibe just us two on our own.’
They arrived at the Alpaca barn and Ekin-Su immediately pointed to two of the animals whose fleeces match their outfits, saying: ‘It’s me and you!’
After spending some time with the alpacas the pair enjoyed a quiet drink, and talk turned to the outside world.
Ekin-Su asked: ‘Do you think your friends would approve of someone like me?’
A smiling Curtis replied: ‘Of course they would approve of you, you’re bloody awesome!’
