Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu has had quite a ride in the Love Island villa already and it's just three weeks into the competition.
The Turkish actress, 27, originally fancied Davide Sanclimenti, before flirting with rugby player Jacques O'Neill, 23. But she ended up coupling up with Jay Younger after sneaking up to the terrace for steamy kisses behind Davide's back.
And last week, she was seen calling out Jay, 28, for his "muggy" behaviour after he told her and Jacques, 23, he wanted to "get to know" Paige Thorne, and recoupled with her.
But the star's mum Sezer reveals to OK! that we could be seeing her get to know Luca Bish, 23, and Andrew Le Page, 30, as she's confessed her daughter liked the look of the lads before the ITV show kicked off.
“I know Su likes Luca because she told me she finds him attractive,” Sezer, 56, said.
“We got to look at pictures of all of the contestants and she was saying, ‘Luca looks nice.’"
She continued: "She also liked Andrew but she had no chance with either of them as they were already coupled up by the time she entered."
Ekin-Su's mum Sezer then went on to discuss her thoughts over her daughter picking Jay over Davide.
“I don’t know if she was so compatible with Jay," she shared. Her previous boyfriends were not so muscly."
She adds: "Su has always been keen on guys that are into sport as she has been going to the gym regularly since school. She wants to meet someone similar.”
Weighing in on Ekin's normal type, her friend Arabella Ovenden tells us: "She’s dated one guy who was a rugby player, another one who was on a reality show.
"She doesn’t really have a type, I think she just sees who she gets along with."
She added: "But she likes tall, manly men with a bit of attitude, she doesn’t like a pushover."
After viewers saw the star call Jay the "biggest player in the villa", Arabella defended her actions, telling us they are "genuine" and that she is actually scared of being hurt.
"I think it’s genuine. In London, she can never find anyone, so I think she’s just getting to know everyone and seeing which ones take to her and don’t mess her about," she revealed.
"She’s been messed about by various guys, so I just think she’s keeping her guard up."
While Davide has been open about never going back there with Ekin-Su, Arabella says her friend is much more suited to him than she is to Jay.
"I think Davide. I think that they’ll understand each other more," she says.
Love Island continues every night at 9pm on ITV2.
