They won by a massive margin.

ITV have revealed exactly how the public voted in the Love Island final, and it turns out Ekin-Su and Davide won by a landslide.

The couple were announced as winners on Monday night, and they basked in a massive 63.69% of the public vote. Runners up Gemma and Luca received 14.47% of votes. The third-place couple, Dami and Indiyah took 11.77% of votes, narrowly beating fourth-placers Tasha and Andrew, who received 10.07%.

After being crowned the winners of the £50,000 grand prize, Ekin-Su and Davide said that they couldn’t quite believe that they won in a short video shared on Instagram.

“Thank you everyone for voting for us and thank you for making us who we are,” Davide said. “I didn’t expect it – I still don’t believe it.”

Ekin-Su, meanwhile, said: “I think everyone’s winners in here, and I just feel really lucky to be here.”

Davide agreed with this sentiment, and added: “They are all four great couples.”

Ekin-Su added: “Thank you for going on our journey with us – it means so much.”

In the caption of the video, they wrote: “To the next chapter. We cannot wait to see what the outside world brings for them both.”
