Love Island Winners Ekin-Su and Davide Split
Love Island’s favourite couple, Ekin-Su Culculoglu and Davide Sanclimenti, have called time on their romance. The pair, who won the popular reality dating show in August 2022, confirmed the split on social media this week.
Davide Breaks The News On Instagram
Davide took to his Instagram story on Thursday to announce they are no longer together. He thanked fans for the memories and wished Ekin-Su the best. “I ask for respect during this difficult time,” he wrote, promising to continue supporting Ekin in any way he can. So far, Ekin-Su has stayed silent on the breakup.
From Red Carpets to Reality TV Spin-Off
The break-up comes just days after the couple was spotted together at the London premiere of Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny. Following their Love Island triumph, they landed a spin-off ITV show exploring their roots in Italy and Turkey. They had also planned to move in together, making this split a shock to many fans.

During their time on Love Island, Davide urged future contestants to seek real love, not fame. He emphasised the importance of genuine connections over showbiz dreams. In past interviews, he opened up about the challenges of dating in the public eye but praised the support from their families and the bond he shared with Ekin-Su.
Another Love Island Couple Breaks Up
Ekin-Su and Davide’s split follows other high-profile Love Island break-ups, including runners-up Luca Bish and Gemma Owen, who split last November shortly after leaving the villa. Looks like the post-Love Island love stories aren’t all fairy tales after all.
