ITV2 giving Love Island fans what they want!

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti have revealed they will star in their own ITV2 show.

The series will see the Love Island winners spend a week in Turkey – where Ekin-Su is of course from – and another week in Davide’s home country of Italy.

The couple announced the news on The Big Breakfast on Channel 4 (yes, it’s back!) this morning (Saturday, August 13).

Davide confirmed: “We are going to road trip to Italy and Turkey – so one week in Italy and one week in Turkey.

“We are going to be on ITV2, so it’s going to be like our own programme.”

Presenter AJ Odudu asked: “You’re going on a trip and we get to come with you?!”

“Yes!” Ekin-Su said. “It’ll be all real, you know, fighting and I’ll be cooking for him, he’ll be cooking for me. It’ll be like two cultures–”

“Meeting family,” Davide added.

Elsewhere on the show, Ekin-Su revealed she had been shouting at Davide every day – and teased that they would be moving in together “soon”.

Love Island fans had been begging for the duo to land their own show after seeing them fooling around a romantic date to a vineyard earlier in the series.

Their bickering and banter became TV gold which eventually landed them the winning couple prize.

One supporter commented on Twitter: “YESSSSS!!! ITV2 giving us what we want. Series confirmed for Ekin-Su and Davide as they spend a week in Turkey and a week in Italy.”

Another said: “Davide and Ekin-Su are actually getting a show on ITV2, so happy for them.”

A third excitedly posted: “Ekin Su and Davide getting their own programme is the best thing I’ve heard this week! I’ve missed them.”

Earlier this week there were reports that Ekin-Su was set to join Loose Women.

They then went on to say that she came across as “really fun and genuine”, which is what bosses want.

“The Loose Women ladies also loved her. She really would be great as a regular panellist,” they added.ITV2 giving
