Ekin-Su recently lifted her dress up on Good Morning Britain to show off her injuries so far.

She was joined on the breakfast show by her boyfriend Davide Sanclimenti as the pair promoted their ITV2 show Homecoming.

“It’s gone now but I’ve got bruises and I’ve lost a toe!” she exclaimed.

GMB host Ranvir Singh leaned in closer to inspect the dark marks along Ekin-Su’s leg, commenting: “Oh you’ve got bruises!”

After having a look at Ekin-Su’s injury, co-host Ben Shepherd quickly reassured her that she’d “lost a toenail, not a toe”.

Ekin-Su went on to describe what had happened that resulted in the missing toenail.

“I’ve lost a toenail, it went backwards but it’s great,” she said, smiling and laughing through the pain.

Davide, who has been supporting Ekin-Su as she takes on Dancing on Ice and as the pair launch their new TV show Homecomings, said she’d been working really hard.

“I see how much effort she puts in, she trains everyday,” he quipped.

Pointing to her leg, Ekin-Su continued: “That is going to explain how my training is going but I’m enjoying every second.

“I’m very competitive, I want everyone to do well and I’m having fun with it.”

Other famous faces appearing on the 2023 series include Coronation Street star Mollie Gallagher, TOWIE legend Joey Essex, EastEnders icon Patsy Palmer and The Wanted hunk Siva Kaneswaran.
