She wrote over the top: "Oh my god, can't wait. P.s. Love the dance!"

Ekin and Davide are the first couple from the 2022 series to move in together in her native Essex, but the Italian has been spending time in Manchester where he has a home in recent weeks.

She recently opened up about a panic attack she had in the villa that was not aired on the ITV2 show, saying she got worried about Davide dumping her.

Turkish beauty Ekin-Su, who turns 28 years old on Saturday, recently told how she had a panic attack in the Majorcan telly villa but it was not aired.

She admitted: "At one point in Casa (Amor) the medics came.

"I had a mini panic attack because I was worried about what Davide was doing ... They said to me 'It's OK'."

The star also revealed her plans to take the relationship to the next stage as she appeared on Lorraine a week after winning Love Island.

She said: "We've decided that we are moving in together, its official.

"We are thinking, because we are going to be quite busy with other things, end of September we're thinking to possibly move to Essex where I'm from.

"Davide's not been to Essex and I feel like it's so nice because it's near London, it's easy to travel to, a bit of countryside, but then also a bit of that edginess to it as well. But I'm very, very excited for that."

On what life is like after winning the hit ITV2 reality dating show, she added: "It's been absolutely overwhelming. I'm just so grateful that I even went on a show.

"You know, it's such a successful show, I didn't think I'd find the love of my life and ended up finding the perfect man. Not just the perfect body.

"I'd had no idea I had this love and the support and I just want to be thankful to everyone. Even my haters, I love them as well, but I'm just over the moon.

"It's been really busy. Just all these projects lined up, and you know, Davide's in Manchester, I'm here right now. It's just all surreal. Like, I don't even know what to say. That's how excited and happy I am."
