A LOVE Island secret feud has been unexpectedly revealed.
Fresh out of the villa and speaking on Cosmopolitan's Up Close podcast with her man Curtis Pritchard, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu made a savage but subtle swipe at a fellow Love Island co-star.
The pair were asked if there was anyone they knew before the villa that came across differently on the show.
This ended up leading to Ekin-Su making a subtle yet savage swipe at Gemma Owen after making a veiled jibe.
Curtis said India Reynolds, touching on how she "came out of her shell a little bit".
Ekin then said: "Such a shame she went early. Really nice girl, got on well with her."
She then replied to the question with her response, saying: "I would say probably Luca for me, because we did the same series together.
"You know, Luca in my series was, I think like, you know, he was with Gemma at the time and I was with my ex.
"But I think it's just nice to see Luca happy, and I'm just proud that he found someone."
She added: "Definitely for me, he definitely came out of his shell more on my season, and just been himself and been vulnerable which has been lovely to see."
Curtis then said: "Luca did go on a big journey in there," adding how during week one he was "true to himself".
"He didn't fancy anyone, he basically just said how it was," he added.
Ekin then chimed in, saying: "He could have played the came and just, you know, but he was very real to himself and he stuck there until he found the right connection."
"Yeah, I didn't know him before, but I do have to respect him for that to be fair. He did stick to his guns," Curtis added.
Ekin and Luca both appeared in the 2022 summer series of Love Island, where they both found love in the villa.
Turkish actress Ekin-Su entered the villa on day three as a bombshell and won the show alongside Davide Sanclimenti.
Meanwhile, Luca was an OG cast member and soon found love with Gemma Owen.
The pair ended up finishing on the show as runners-up after making it to the final with Ekin and Davide.
But after the pair left the villa, they split up three months later.
Luca is now all loved up with blonde beauty Grace Jackson who entered the All Stars villa as a bombshell.
The Brighton-based hunk was instantly attracted to Grace, with them soon falling head over heels for one another.
But their journey in the villa wasn't without it's struggles.
When bombshell Samie Elishi entered the villa, she had her sights set firmly on Luca, but the fishmonger's head didn't turn despite the chaos caused upon her arrival.
