LOVE Island winner Ekin-Su Culculoglu broke her silence last night after she survived the dreaded skate off.
The 28-year-old went up against John Fashanu, 60, after the public vote left her vulnerable, but the judges opted to send the former footballer packing instead.
After the results, a delighted Ekin-Su told her followers: “We made it through! Thank you so much for your support this week, thanks to the judges and thank you @brendynhatfield loved every second of that performance…roll on musicals week 
”
On last night’s show John and his professional partner Alexandra Schauman performed once again, this time to Norman Greenbaum’s Spirit In The Sky while Ekin and her partner Brendyn Hatfield skated to No Tears Left To Cry by Ariana Grande.
After the judges voted unanimously to save Ekin, John, who was part of the Wimbledon team that won the FA Cup final against Liverpool in 1988, said: “Whatever happens it has been wonderful. FA Cup final again.”
Ekin was very emotional during the episode and admitted to Holly Willoughby: “I’m not going to lie I was really upset for the last two days and I was literally questioning myself.”
She added: “I’m just like you know what stop this crying Ekin, you’re strong, take on what the judges say, work hard, and I’m here today.”
The Love Island winner, 28, skated to Toxic by Britney Spears with pro partner Brendyn Hatfield, 37, last week in a nude bodysuit – and many felt she was unfairly underscored.
She went on to score 21.5 out of 40 after an “electric” performance – leaving Ekin and her fans disappointed.
The leotard sparked over 100 Ofcom complaints and a flurry of tweets complaing about the racy outfit.
Host Holly exclaimed: “That may have been the sexiest performance we’ve ever had on Dancing on Ice.”
Ekin-Su brushed off the furore about her routine with professional skater Brendyn Hatfield, saying: “You know what?
“If you have ’em, flaunt them. I mean, if you’ve got a nice bum and you look sexy in a unitard, why not? Who cares?”
