Inside Love Island stars Ekin-Su and Davide’s romantic trip to Rome as romance blossoms after break-up
LOVE Island winners Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti have given a glimpse into their stunning Italian getaway.
The duo, who won Love Island last year, have jetted to the businessman's home turf for a festive adventure in Rome.
In August they confirmed their romance was back on as they shared a sweet snap together from a holiday in Turkey for Ekin-Su's birthday.
And earlier this month, Davide revealed the major relationship update which saw their festive celebrations combine.
He has now taken to his Instagram grid to capture a selection of snaps of their "moments in the capital."
It kicked off with Davide outside the Colosseum in Rome before a side-on selfie showed him enjoying a glass of wine.

The third snap melted fans' hearts as it captured Ekin-Su and Davide cuddled up for an outdoor snap, sat by a pretty floral display.
Another sweet snap in the collage saw them snug by a waterfall while the hunk was seen posing with his family on a day out.
Davide also indulged in a sexy selfie, which saw him strip topless for a mirror picture.
Fans were quick to react, with one commenting: "Love that you and Ekin are still together."
A second put: "Absolutely amazing you guys are so cute!" as a third put: "Wholesome moments."
One then remarked: "The most iconic couple," as one spotted Davide's selfie and gushed: "Damn that mirror picture."
Despite their ups and downs in the villa, Ekin-Su and Davide seemed to be going from strength to strength after returning to the UK.
But they shocked fans when they announced that they had gone their separate ways in June.
Yet Davide has now clarified their break up - saying it was more in public than private.
He said that the temporary separation was needed to help strengthen their relationship.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Davide said: "It's a lovely feeling being with Ekin, we probably broke up more publicly but never privately because we have always been in touch and the love between me and Ekin have always been there.
"Breaking up may happen to people but it never actually happened to us.
"We never properly privately broke up, it was more to do with the public pressure and we were having some tough months.
"It was a bit of pressure on both sides."
He also previously told The Sun of their Christmas plans and how Ekin would fly out to Europe.
Her family was also set to join them for the big day.
