Gemma Owen and Luca Bish were miles back in second place, in a close battle for runner-up spot with Tasha Ghouri and Andrew Le Page.

A whopping 137,048 votes were cast.

Bookies agree Ekin-Su and Davide, both 27, should walk it — and could rival 2018 winners Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham’s record when they won 80 per cent of the official vote.

And Sun readers reckon the future looks particularly bright for Ekin-Su, with 70 per cent tipping her to take over Laura Whitmore’s job as host of spin-off show Aftersun.

She was also picked by 62 per cent as the 2022 Islander who’d earn the most.

It’s looking a little less rosy for Gemma and Luca, with only 13 per cent of our readers thinking they will work out once they leave the island.

Last week fishmonger Luca had viewers in stitches when he said ­gorgeous Gemma was “punching” — meaning he was the bigger catch.

Our readers have put the lucky lad in his place, with 81 per cent saying that in fact it’s Gemma who’s the gem.

Other talking points included Paige Thorne’s predicament over departed lover Jacques O’Neill, who quit two weeks ago.

Paramedic Paige, 24 — who has now been evicted — opted to stay put, and coupled up with returning Islander Adam Collard instead. But last night she was shown the door.

Readers had backed her choice, with almost half saying she was entitled to move on. But 71 per cent think she and Jacques won’t reunite on the outside after she and Adam missed a place in the final.

That last episode is tonight, and even though the eighth series had record viewing figures, only seven per cent thought it was the best ever.

In fact 84 per cent reckon the ­format needs a shake-up ahead of Winter Love Island next year.
