Tonight, things got intense on Love Island as newcomer Nathalia messed up with Ekin-Su. Nathalia has already mentioned that she has her side eye set on Davide, Ekin-Su's love interest, on the show. She said she was interested in Davide but would not crawl on any floor, taunting Ekin-Su for the time she crawled across the terrace to kiss the now eliminated contestant Jay Younger.

On the show, Davide told Nathalia that things weren't over with his current partner, and it would take something significant for him to leave Ekin Su. Nathalia kissed Davide in a game of truth or dare when she was asked to kiss three of the most attractive men in the house. Ekin-Su was frustrated with their bond and said it wasn't a kiss but a snog.

In the pool, she mentioned how Nathalia was not leaving Davide alone and said,

"I am not gonna kill them with kindness, I am gonna kill them with Ekin-Su."

By the end of the episode, the tension was too high to handle, and while everyone else was drinking and partying, the two got into an altercation. As seen in a preview of the next episode, Ekin-Su says to Nathalia,

"Have you got an issue with me?"

Nathalia replies with a no, but Ekin-Su does not leave her and asks the question again. Nathalia replies that maybe Ekin-Su has an issue with herself.

Love Island fans did not like Nathalia coming in between fan favorite couple Ekin-Su and Davide and flooded Twitter with their reactions.
