Davide Sanclimenti has opened up on his plans to become a parent with Love Island belle Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu.
Former Turkish soap star Ekin, 28, was very open on the dating series about her wish to have kids in the near future, and the Italian Stallion, 27, has admitted it is in the couple's plans.
Speaking to Mirror Online, Davide said the pair have discussed becoming parents, but insisted they are currently simply enjoying life as a "proper boyfriend and girlfriend".
He said: "We spoke about it [having kids] and we feel that whenever it’ll be time we will feel it. We are not planning a time, we are just enjoying our relationship."
Despite not giving a timeframe, he added: "When it’ll be time for kids and family we will do it."

Davide admitted that although it has been a whirlwind since leaving the villa as Love Island winners two months ago, the pair have been able to grow in their relationship.
He confessed life on camera 24/7 wasn't like the real world and now believes they are in a better place together. While he admitted the fiery duo still have the arguments which often kept the viewers' attention on the ITV2 show, he said any bickering is "healthy".
"You need a few small arguments in the relationship in order to feel it’s real," he claimed. "But apart from that we feel better since left the villa. We feel like actually boyfriend and girlfriend."

And he revealed he didn't expect such a positive reaction from across the globe after his time on Love Island.
"I didn’t expect to be recognised by so many people," he honestly admitted. "[In] New York, America, people know us. I didn’t expect that. I expected people to maybe know us in England but it’s surprised me because everyone loves us and it’s not like people hate us. The maximum fans will ask is a picture and I'm always glad to do so."

While Ekin-Su continues to bag huge sponsorship and collaboration deals, Davide oversaw the launch of the boohooMAN X Davide collaboration at the weekend.
He praised the company and their link-up, insisting he feels it truly captures his own style.
He said: "It feels good to be ambassador of boohooMAN. I was wearing their tops before entering Love Island and it’s like my style. I really love the collection and I feel like we created a great product."
