After receiving complaints from Ofcom, Dancing On Ice’s Ekin-Su Cülcülolu is believed to be discarding her provocative attire from last week’s programme in favour of a more modest number.
In addition to landing in the skate off after her debut performance, the Love Island winner, 28, was chastised by 112 fans who complained to the television watchdog about her sexy full fabric jumpsuit.
Given that Ekin-Su was performing to the same song, the wardrobe team made the costume to look like the one Britney Spears wore in her iconic Toxic video.
However, it has since been reported that Ekin-Su would dress in a larger skirt and sleeves so that spectators can focus on her performance.
A source said: ‘Ekin is a strong character and is coming back fighting. She has a lot more to give on the series and has been practising hard.
‘Being in the bottom two is always tough, but she is hoping to survive another week.’
The insider added to The Sun: ‘She’s proud of her curves, but is happy to wear a more covered-up costume so fans are less distracted and can focus on her skating.’
Ekin-Su went all out for her debut routine, including recreating her memorable crawling sequence from her Love Island villa on the ice.
Ekin-performance Su’s was naturally sassy, and she completed it all while wearing a dazzling silver jumpsuit.
Despite receiving an admirable 21.5 points from the judges, her performance was not well received by spectators at home, and she will skate again next week in an attempt to avoid elimination after finishing last.
Tonight’s Dancing On Ice show will include ex-footballer John Fashanu and professional Alexandra Schauman; Coronation Street actress Mollie Gallagher and professional Sylvain Longchambon; and comedian Darren Harriott and professional Tippy Packard.
The queen of drag The Vivienne, who won the first season of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, will skate with professional Colin Grafton, and Carley Stenson, a soap actress and West End theatrical performer, will round up the lineup with professional Mark Hanretty.
Dancing On Ice continues tonight at 6.30pm on ITV1.
