Davide Sanclimenti hangs out with Love Island co-star on boat after Ekin-Su split

Davide Sanclimenti has been spotted hanging out with a Love Island co-star just a day after announcing his split from Ekin-Su Culculoglu.

Ekin-Su and Davide have separated less than one year after being crowned the winners of Love Island season eight.

The 27-year-old model and entrepreneur shared the news of the split on his Instagram Stories and said that the pair were "no longer together" but that he wished his former partner "nothing but the best".

He said: "@ekinsuofficial and I are no longer together. I am grateful for the memories and opportunities we shared together and I wish her nothing but the best.

"I would like for everybody to respect this decision during this difficult time, I will continue to support Ekin in any way possible."

Ekin-Su has not yet addressed the break-up publicly.

Just a day after the shock announcement, Davide has already posted pictures from a "work trip" with Boohoo Man.

Last year, he secured a deal with Boohoo and created his own collection. He has been an ambassador ever since.

He posted a picture to his Stories which shows a number of other Boohoo models and ambassadors, including Love Island's Josh Le Grove. Josh Le Grove was also an Islander on Season 8 when he entered Casa Amor.

Josh chose to couple up with Summer Botwe but the pair were dumped from the island on day 39 when they received the fewest public votes.

Davide and Ekin-Su's split comes just days after the pair were out together on the red carpet, for the London premiere of Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny.

The couple were hugely popular with Love Island fans and won by securing almost two-thirds of the public vote in the grand final.

They then secured a deal for an ITV spin-off show in which they explored their home countries of Italy and Turkey.

The couple had also previously announced that they were moving in together.

Speaking in an Interview with Boohoo Man earlier this year, Davide opened up about his "struggles" in the relationship.

He said: "Me and Ekin-Su had our struggles due to our public positions and we still have them sometimes.

"If there's something that I would change or would have done differently [with Ekin-Su in the villa] maybe I would have taken things a bit more slowly."

But he said the best thing about dating Ekin-Su was that they "understand each other."

He added: "She is my copy-paste. Also, because we come from the same experience and the same background.

"She met my family and fortunately, all my parents love her and Ekin-Su's family love me."

In November last year, Love Island runners-up Luca Bish and Gemma Owen previously announced their separation – less than four months after leaving the villa.
