The actress, 33, made sure to get snaps with all the Islanders invited to the Leicester Square bash, beaming away next to Ekin-Su on the pink carpet like she was at a meet-and-greet.
Margot also posed with Danica Taylor, Liberty Poole and Ekin-Su’s ex, Davide Sanclimenti.
Ekin-Su said: “When Margot saw me, I was the biggest fan for her and she acted like she was a fan for me, which was overwhelming.”
And the 28-year-old admitted she was amazed when Margot told her: “I can’t believe I’m meeting you.”
Liberty, who stars in the current series, said the movie star made no secret of being a fan of ITV’s dating show.
She said: “I was like, ‘As if Margot Robbie knows my name — this is crazy.’ But she was just so humble and down to earth.”
In 2021, Margot held a Love Island-themed bash for her 31st birthday, saying the show reminded her “of living in London and watching it with my girlfriends when everybody was home from work”.
The Barbie premiere, the biggest held in London since One Direction’s This Is Us screening in 2013, saw the West End transformed into a sea of pink.
Chart-toppers Dua Lipa and Sam Smith made surprise appearances, having both featured on the film’s soundtrack.
Dua also makes a cameo as a mermaid in the film, which is out on July 21.
In keeping with her role as the iconic plastic doll, Margot has been wearing outfits sported by Barbie over the years as she tours the globe to promote the movie.
Turning heads in a pink ballgown and pearl choker, she joined co-star Ryan Gosling, 42, for the official afterparty at Tate Modern on the banks of the River Thames.
The duo were later spotted at North London hot-spot Chiltern Firehouse, a favourite of the rich and famous.
With the new venue came a new outfit as Margot changed into a red satin minidress.
