Love Island's Ekin-su wins over Davide's mum in new ITV2 series

Love Island 2022 winners Davide Sanclimenti and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu will showcase their relationship in a new ITV2 series.

Ekin-Su & Davide: Homecomings will see the couple embark on two trips of a lifetime to Davide’s beloved Italy and Ekin-Su’s hometown in Turkey. After a summer of love, the couple are set to bring back the flirting, fun and laughter to our screens.

For the first time since leaving the Love Island Villa, Davide will return to Italy with Ekin by his side and the two-part series will see the 'Turkish Delight' win over Davide's family. Showing off her cooking skills in his family's kitchen, she will prepare some homemade Gnocchi with the help of Davide's mum as the two bond further.

Meanwhile, Davide will be introduced to all of Ekin's friends from her acting days in Turkey. While there they will also venture on a eight-hour road trip in a campervan to Ekin-Su’s family village of Odemis.

And more drama, like the kind that caused Davide's famous catchphrase - "You're a liar!" - could be expected as they spend a night sleeping in their motorhome, living in a confined space.

Mike Spencer, creative director at Lifted Entertainment, said: "We are thrilled to be working with Davide and Ekin-Su on this really exciting new ITV2 show. Ekin-Su and Davide both stole the nation's hearts on this series of Love Island so we are excited for viewers to see what they have been up to since winning the show."

Paul Mortimer, director of reality commissioning and controller, ITV2, said: "We can’t wait to bring this fantastic series to ITV2. We can look forward to more romance, laughter, fun and everything in between from the couple as they embark on two epic adventures in Turkey and Italy together."

Ekin-Su & Davide: Homecomings is coming soon to ITV2.
