Love Island star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu is unrecognizable in her college shots.

The 27-year-old actress caused a sensation on the ITV2 dating show and appears to have left her romance with Davide Sanclimenti behind to chase the islander Jay Younger in upcoming scenes.

While Ekin-Su’s birth name translates to “spring” or “plant a seed” in Turkish, the bomb went from another nickname while studying at the University of Central Lancashire.

The gorgeous islander has been using the name Susie Hayzel for several years.

A Facebook page previously used by Ekin-Su when she was known as Susie shows her visibly different.

As Susie Hayzel, Ekin-Su can be seen sporting darker brown locks.

On the abandoned Facebook page, she introduces herself as an actress and Miss Ireland in charge and can be seen posing with friends in a variety of short dresses.

During her college years, Ekin-Su also starred in another reality show.

Livewire appeared on the short-lived reality show Lancashore, which has been dubbed a “reality show that follows the lives of a group of students in Preston,” during her first year of performing arts studies.



The 27-year-old actress was previously named Susie Hayzel.

Ekin-Su then moved to Turkey.

She successfully landed a role on a soap opera in the country before appearing on Love Island this summer and quickly turning heads.

In addition to being nicknamed Toby Aromolaran by fans of the show, Ekin-Su’s secret bond with GMB host Richard Arnold was also revealed.

During recent scenes, she was seen flirting with newcomers Jay and Remi Lambert.

His matchmaking tactics have also caused some controversy outside the village.

After her recent affront to her former love Davide, the Italian star’s family was accused of “shaming” Ekin-Su in a deleted social media post.

Ekin-Su and Davide attracted attention at the beginning of the series with a frosty kiss.

Love Island continues at 9pm tonight (June 16) on ITV2.
