They may have become love rivals early into the 2022 series of Love Island but it appears the bromance between Davide Sanclimenti and Jay Younger is very real. Viewers of the ITV2 dating show were baffled earlier this week at the Italian business owner's reaction to investment analyst Jay being dumped from the villa.
During Monday night's episode it was revealed that the islanders had to decide which couple stayed in the villa and which consequently left after a public vote put Dami Hope, Summer Botwe, Jay and Chyna Mills in the bottom two couples. And the villa made the decision that Jay and Chyna would leave, keeping Dami in thanks to his blossoming romance with Indiyah Polack.
Following the decision, Davide, 27, said: "Jay is the last person I would like to send home because he's probably my best mate inside the villa." The comment did leave some fans confused over his best mate confession as they pointed out that Jay had originally stole Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu off him, even having secret kisses with the Turkish actress.

But while Jay left the villa single, he appears to have made a friend for life in Davide and the remaining islander sent him a secret message during scenes aired on the popular show on Wednesday night (July 13). In the 'random' moment, Davide was seen in the kitchen cooking up some food for his fellow contestants.
"Mate, this looks f*cking banging," one of the boys was heard saying as Davide offered: "Some pepper as well." Billy Brown then piped up and told him: "Davide, oh my God, that's no joke!" before the camera then cut to Ekin-Su with a mouthful of pasta and said: "It's actually really good."
And while viewers don't often see the islanders cooking their own meals, there appears to have been a reason on this occasion. Taking to Twitter, dumped Islander Jay claimed: "No one knows this, but I told Davide to cook carbonara for everyone if he was missing me as a secret message to the outside world #LoveIsland @Davide_Sancli."
And it got fans right in their feels. @JordonAbel_TW said: "Best bromance ever cant wait to see use guys reunite." @tinza_a wrote: "Omgggg that’s cute #loveisland." @RobbiesAngel76 replied: "Why does that make me want to cry #bromance." @XanderinSoho added: "Truly an unbreakable bond."
Meanwhile, other viewers were left making the same comment after Davide and Ekin-Su were seen in the kitchen after a blazing row. @eliiiiiz tweeted: "Not Davide & Ekin in the kitchen cooking two seconds after having a fight! MUM AND DAD #loveisland." @lynnacoupie noted: "Davide and ekin cooking together??? THEY JUST HAD A FIGHT #LoveIsland."
@Kaaaaatie_x shared: "Hold on now ekin and davide are cooking for the villa and serving everyone’s meals like mum and dad??? how much time did we skip wtf #loveisland." @LouisNevers added: "Davide & Ekin-Su are hilarious man. No resolution to that argument at all but 5 minutes later they're cooking in the kitchen & getting cosy in bed #LoveIsland."
