LOVE Island is all about the contestants finding the love of their life - but let’s be honest, it’s also about the cast gaining Instagram followers.  And so far, it’s Turkish soap star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu who is leading the way among the Love Island stars with 451k followers on the app.  As of this week, though, it’s Jay with the least amount of fans clicking follow on his account - although that could all change after his secret hook-ups with Ekin.  The second most followed girl is Gemma Owen - who also boasts 43.9k followers on her official dressage account where she posts updates on her riding competitions.  She also launched her swimwear brand back in February - where she has just over eight thousand fans following her.  According to research, Gemma had just 42.4k followers before she entered the villa, rising to 78k on the morning of the show launch.  .css-16e4f55{margin:16px 0;}.css-1czxmma{background-color:rgba(252,239,255,1);margin:16px 0;}.css-1tapza8{padding:20px 15px;}.css-1bk4jdt{padding:20px
