ITV2 has announced the return of Love Island winners Ekin-Su Cülcüloglu and Davide Sanclimenti as the stars of an upcoming ITV2 reality show. The new series, which is in the works, would focus on the winning pair’s love life and travel adventures as they navigate their romance.
According to the network, the new show, titled “Ekin-Su & Davide: Homecomings,” would feature the love birds embarking on two major trips, including one to Ekin-Su’s hometown in Turkey and another to Davide’s hometown in Italy, which he has not visited since venturing into the Love Island villa.
The new show would be produced by Lifted Entertainment, following the couple through Verona, Tuscany, and Istanbul, among other exciting love journeys. Confirming the collaboration, Mike Spencer, Creative Director at Lifted Entertainment, divulged:
What To Expect On The ITV2 Show Ekin-Su & Davide: Homecomings?
As announced by ITV2, the brand new series comprises two parts, each centered around Ekin-Su and Davide enjoying post-Love Island adventures. The twosome would visit Davide’s hometown of Frosinone in Italy and enjoy the time of their lives. However, before making their final stop, the businessman would give his partner a treat, taking her on an adventurous tour of his beloved Italy and a trip through Tuscan Valley.
Ekin-Su would get to return the favor as the series progresses, enjoying her lover’s company as they make their way to Turkey. Before stopping over in Istanbul, the travel tour would see Ekin-Su and Davide meet up with some of the former’s friends and acting colleagues she became acquainted with during her time living in Italy. Making the journey more exciting, the lovebirds would spend most of their tour duration living off their motor home.
The network also teased fun moments like couple’s workout sessions, sea fests, Turkish baths, and belly dancing. There would also be tense moments as the reality TV actress finally meets Davide’s family and, hopefully, demonstrate her cooking prowess to her to-be in-laws. The Director of Reality Commissioning and Controller at ITV2 added:
Ekin-Su Cülcüloglu and Davide Sanclimenti shot into the spotlights during the just-completed season 8 of the Love Island reality show. For weeks, the couple stuck with each other amid the tiffs and turmoils of the mystical villa, eventually emerging as the season’s finalists. Having them return again to the screens in another romantic series is just what Love Island viewers needed after a tight run on the show.
