Who are Davide and Ekin-Su, the Love Island UK winners?
Both members of the victorious pair had auditioned for the show’s eighth season in the hopes of finding love. Following a few difficulties, Italian stallion Davide met Turkish joy Ekin-Su and the two fell in love in the first week of the competition. They were one of the show’s most formidable competitors. Despite being deemed the “least compatible pair” by the islanders in one of the episodes, the couple eventually won. 27-years-old Davide is a businessman from Rome who now resides in Manchester. He entered the dating program hoping to meet a “soulmate” with whom he could “really create something in the future, develop with them, and be a family.”
Ekin-Su, 27, is an actress from Essex who appeared on the program “searching for the love of [her] life.” She was “not just looking for looks,” but also a “serious man” with “intelligence” and “someone who can have good chats.”
On the program, both were looking for a committed relationship and found one. Following their romantic date, their respective parents approved of their romance. When the pair won the show, they thanked their followers for voting for them and helping them earn first place.
