Ekin-Su and Davide now bookies favourites after recoupling

Ekin-Su and Davide have gone from 100/1 to a 5/1 chance of winning Love Island after last night's show.

The ball was in the girls' courts last night as they had the power to choose which boy they wanted to couple up with. Viewers expected the likes of Gemma and Paige to choose Luca and Jacques but all eyes were on who controversial fan favourite Ekin-Su would decide on.

When she arrived at the villa, Ekin-Su immediately made a beeline for Davide and jumped head first into a complicated relationship where she claimed he wasn't giving her everything she needed just days after getting together. Their brief stint together was ruined after Ekin-Su cheated on him with a new bombshell, Jay, and kicked off the villa's first massive argument of the series.

Since then, the pair have kissed and made up as last night she decided to rekindle their romance to see if their original spark could be saved. For the last few weeks since their initial fallout, fans have become increasingly enamoured with their "toxic" relationship as both parties have fun with their frenemy title.

The bold move has gone down well with viewers who took to Twitter to declare their support for the "winners." One comment said: "Ekin Su thee best contestants to ever enter love island. From rattling the girls, crawling around the villa, eating noodles like she’s in Disney, hyping up bombshells and taking Davide back. She runs the villa and has carried this season. I don’t know who’s better."

Another added: "Nothing but respect for MY winners."

Before last night, the couple was unlikely to take home the winning crown but their chances have shot up from 100/1 to a staggering 5/1. They currently sit as Betway's fourth couple to win, just behind Luca and Gemma who have a 4/1 chance. In second position are Dami and Inidyah at 5/2 and in the lead as the island's most likely couple is Jacques and Paige at 13/8.
