'Surely this isn’t the the same Ekin-Su that practically convulsed on Celeb Big Brother for someone even MENTIONING Love Island, back on All Stars? SURELY NOT? #LoveIslandAllStars.'
'Ekin Su returning to LI, after denying it for months and saying she'd never come back, is very funny to me #LoveIsland #LoveIslandAllStars.'
'Those of you that watched CBB would know that Ekin Su made a huge deal about people associating her with Love Island & now she’s back here? Spare me. This is an actress fr #LoveIslandAllStars.'
'So Ekin-Su speech on big brother about regretting going on love island was a load of s***, she’s now on all stars #LoveIslandAllStars.'
It comes after Ekin-Su revealed why she's returned to the Love Island for All Stars, while making a thinly-veiled dig at ex Davide.
Speaking ahead of her comeback, the brunette beauty said: 'I want to return to Love Island again because it's where my journey started and has a special place in my heart.

'It's somewhere I've laughed, cried and learnt so much. The fact that there's an opportunity to do it again - why not!
'Why can't a winner go back in and re-write her story and have a second chance?! I think you should follow your gut and my gut is telling me to go back, so I'm listening to it.'
When quizzed on what she's looking for this time around, Ekin-Su revealed she wants 'someone who isn't overly self-obsessed and someone that's aware of flaws because we all have them.'
In what could be a swipe at Davide, she added: 'I'd like a man that will love me when I'm in the worst mood possible but still understands why and has no judgments.
'I'd like someone supportive, I don't care about looks and money - I want someone to be my biggest cheerleader.'
When it comes to red flags, the biggest one for Ekin-Su is 'someone selling the dream at the start, being perfect - because that's not real.'
She insisted: 'Real love and connection starts with the journey, a friendship and getting to know one another first.'
