ITV Love Island fans 'feel sick' over Davide and Ekin Su kiss as they're divided over Gemma Owen and new man Luca

Love Island fans were feeling queasy as Davide Sanclimenti and Ekin-Su Cülcüloglu sealed their coupling with a racy kissing session on the ITV2 dating show. We're now a week into the new series and Italian business owner Davide, who lives in Manchester, is paired with Turkish actress Ekin-Su.

He was previously with Gemma Owen, the daughter of former England striker Michael Owen, in the Mallorca villa until she was chosen by fishmonger Luca Bish at this season's first re-coupling. But Gemma appeared to be far from his mind as he and Ekin-Su enjoyed steamy smooches spotted by their fellow Islanders who didn't know where to look.

And viewers rushed to Twitter to have their say. @septimusajprime asked with a nauseous-face emoji: "Can ITV censor Davide and Ekin-Sungbalaja swallowing each others faces please?"

@4ceex said: "Me washing my eyes after I saw ekin su and Davide kiss." @jolaaa_xox asked: "Why is Davide tryna swallow Ekin WHOLE?" @amytweets555 shouted: "WHAT WAS THAT DAVIDE AND EKIN SU PLEASE STOP." And @PasLdn said: "Davide and Ekin Su were kissing each other like they were starving and hadn’t eaten in a week."

@nathxn_x said: "That kiss made me so uncomfy… pls don’t ever show Davide and Ekin su again." @user618289 wrote: "That kiss was so awkward to watch between Ekin Su and Davide." And @arisughhh observed: "Davide and Ekin Su eating each other’s faces like its their last meal."

Luca makes his move on Gemma (ITV)

Viewers were then stunned as the next day Ekin-Su, 27, flirted with Gemma's ex Jacques O'Neill, 23, who arrived as a bombshell latecomer. Meanwhile dressage rider Gemma, 19, is getting to know Luca, 23, after he swapped Welsh paramedic Paige Thorne, 24, for a new partner.

And Gemma's followers are divided over their budding new relationship after Luca previously had his sights on Paige and model Tasha Ghouri, 23, in the dating contest.

natcaves wrote on Gemma's latest Instagram post: "It seems he can’t seem to make up his mind. 3 girls in the space of 5 days? Hmm." And tesa_lovenikki said: "Like Gemma but her and Luca ain't it."

But inesaa121 wrote: "Definitely suited better with Luca." And zainab_31518 said: "Luca and Gemma were bound to happen some day; I saw the interest from day one tbh." And courtz.dkm.2022 said: "I want Gemma and Luca to win."

In tonight's episode (Monday June 13) Luca winds up Jacques as the Islanders head out into the garden for the evening. Rugby player Jacques heads over to Luca and Andrew Le Page and asks: “What are we saying lads?” and Luca confidently quips back: “Just saying how I am about to kiss your ex!”
