Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti will shortly be back on our screens as ITV2 has announced a spin-off series. The new show will follow the Love Island 2022 winners as they travel together to Davide's beloved Italy and Ekin-Su's hometown in Turkey.
The couple, who won the popular dating show this summer, will meet one another's family and friends, from parents to siblings and grandparents in the new series. The two-part programme, which is called Ekin-Su & Davide: Homecomings, will see the duo pack their suitcases again for two new adventures.
Davide will return to his hometown Frosinone for the first time since leaving the Love Island villa with Ekin-Su by his side. He will also give Ekin-Su a taste of Italy as the pair embark on a whistle-stop tour of the Italian city of love, Verona, made famous by lovers Romeo and Juliet.

The couple will then travel through the Tuscan valley and eventually jet off to Turkey, where they will visit Istanbul. Ekin-Su will introduce Davide to the acting colleagues she met while living and working as an actress in Turkey.
Ekin-Su and Davide will also venture on an eight-hour road trip in a campervan to Ekin-Su's family village of Odemis. As they spend a night sleeping in their motorhome, cue the drama of living in confined spaces.
