A host of Love Island stars were in attendance, no doubt per Margot’s request – including Davide Sanclimenti, Liberty Poole, Liam Reardon, Millie Court, Olivia Hawkins, Dami Hope and Indiyah Polack.
However, it was one of the show’s biggest stars that caught the Barbie actress’ attention – Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu.
In a video shared via TikTok, the Love Island star and the actress are seen meeting for the first time.
After Ekin-Su taps Margot on the shoulder, the 33-year-old turns around and lets out a scream of delight before pulling the reality star in for a hug.

Speaking to BBC Newsbeat after meeting Margot, Ekin-Su admitted she’d “really, really, really” hoped that she would cross paths with the actress.
The Love Island star said: “I know there was a TikTok that went viral on about how she really really liked me from Love Island and how she was basically saying I came across as a boss babe.”
“And at the time when I came out the villa, I was shocked that she actually said my name. So when Margot saw me, I was the biggest fan for her and she acted like she was a fan for me, which I was even more overwhelmed with.”
Ekin-Su then revealed Margot had told her:Â “I can’t believe I’m meeting you.”
