Love Islander winner Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu is to be paid an eye-watering salary to participate in this season's Dancing On Ice.
The Turkish beauty, who skyrocketed to fame after coupling up with Davide Sanclimenti on the hit dating show, will become the highest paid Love Island star in history to appear on the show.
Ekin-Su announced that she would be taking part in the show last week after signing what is believed to have been an unbelievable six-figure deal.
The 28-year-old's salary on the show goes well beyond those offered to other Islanders in the past.
A TV insider told the Sun: "As a comparison, Love Island stars would normally command something in the region of £30-50k for the show, so this is a huge deal for Ekin-Su.
"Producers felt she was well worth every penny though - she is one of the most popular winners in Love Island history, winning with a landslide of votes, she's got a great personality, and she's stunning to boot so they're confident her cheque will be reflected in the ratings."
Previous Love Island contestants who have taken to the ice include Kem Cetinay, Wes Nelson, Maura Higgins and Liberty Poole.
Ekin-Su cemented herself as a fan favourite early on this year's Love Island series, with many crediting her with "saving the show" after she brought plenty of drama to our screens.
The actress is expected to draw more viewers to the programme as people look forward to her routines each week.
Other contestants for the 2023 series were also announced last week.
These included Michelle Heaton, Carly Stenson, Darren Harriott, Joey Essex, The Vivienne, Mollie Gallagher, Nile Wilson, John Fashanu and Patsy Palmer.
And there will be plenty of more Ekin-Su and Davide on our screens in the coming weeks as the pair bring their brand new two-part series travel show to TV.
The show will see the loved-up pair head to Italy first and back to Davide's hometown of Frosinone before heading to Verona, known as the Italian city of love.
Following that, the pair will head through the Tuscan valley and then to Ekin-Su's native country, Tukey.
Starting in Istanbul, the Love Island star will introduce her partner to the acting colleagues she met while working in the city.
