Becky Hill on why you don't see Love Islanders smoking on screen anymore

Dressage rider Gemma Owen had fans in tears as she shared a heart-warming video of the moment she returned home after two months in the Love Island villa. Gemma, the daughter of former Liverpool, Manchester United and England footballer Michael, posted a touching clip on her Instagram of her walking through the door of the plush family abode to be met by her beloved pet dogs and horse.

After Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti were crowned the winners of the latest series of Love Island, a whole new host of singletons will be thinking about applying for the next season of the show. And while spending your days in a sun-soaked villa in Mallorca may seem like a dream come true, a stay in the Love Island villa requires contestants to abide by a strict set of weird and wonderful rules.

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu’s former career as a shot girl in a bar during her university days has been revealed, following her Love Island win with partner Davide Sanclimenti.The 27 year old actress, who wowed at the final in a short embellished dress, became a favourite among fans during this year's series and it’s been said she could even rival the success of previous winner Molly-Mae. However, prior to her reality TV days, the star worked as an actress following graduating from the University of Central Lancashire with a degree in acting, during which time she worked at a local bar called Ships and Giggles where she worked as a shot girl and helped with celebrity appearances.

TOWIE star Billie Shepherd is soon to be welcoming her third child with her husband Greg Shepherd after her sister Samantha Faiers recently became a new mum of three. And after becoming addicted to Love Island this year, Billie, 32, revealed her eight year old daughter Nelly has asked her and husband Greg, 37, to name their new addition after ITV contestant Davide Sanclimenti.

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti crowned winners (and worthy winners they were) in the Love Island 2022 final, with many of this year’s Islanders reuniting to watch the show at a glitzy viewing party.Among those in attendance were two bombshells who we did NOT expect to see together any time soon. The Casa Amor girls posed for a picture, which was posted to Instagram by Chyna Mills, and standing next to each other were Coco Lodge and Jazmine Nichol, which we found strange considering they exposed their secret feud after leaving the villa.Jazmine spilled the beans on a secret unaired argument with Coco following her kiss with Andrew Le Page, while Coco made a number of shady comments seemingly aimed at Jazmine which suggested the whole thing was blown out proportion.Nevertheless, the pair seemed to have put their differences aside – at least for the night – as they celebrated the end of the series.Jazmine and Coco’s feud first came to light when the Geordie beauty queen had revealed she’d also been getting to know Andrew in the villa and was left blindsided when he and Coco kissed.“Coco, the girl I was closest to and had talked to about Andrew, went up to the terrace and kissed him.

Love Island stars Coco Lodge and Jack Keating were seen putting on a rather flirty display as they enjoyed the ITV2 show’s series wrap party at London’s ME Hotel on Monday night. Coco, 27, and Jack 23, the son of singer Ronan Keating, looked to be getting quite close as they partied the night away together following the dating series coming to an end.

Since Love Island started in 2015, love has always prevailed and so far every couple has chosen to split the 50k prize money rather than steal it. However, last year’s finalist Chloe Burrows believes that one couple could win and steal the money this year.

We have been glued to our screens watching Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu's turbulent relationship with Davide Sanclimenti unfold on Love Island, like the rest of the nation.The pair, both 27, initially hit it off, with Davide ditching Michael Owen's daughter Gemma in favour of the Turkish soap star, but their romance was thrown into chaos when Ekin – quite literally – crawled to test her connection with investment analyst Jay Younger. After realising she had more of a spark with Davide, they were trialled once again when the ITV2 dating show pulled their infamous Casa Amor twist which saw Ekin share a bed with new boy George Tasker while Davide enjoyed a kiss with Mollie Salmon.They have since proved their loyalty to one another and are now the favourites to win the entire show. Desperate to find out more about actress Ekin and what she looks for in a man, OK! spoke to her good friend Melly Andersen to find out what she makes of Italian stallion Davide and whether she thinks they could last on the outside world.

Just when you think the drama in Love Island may be coming into an end, bosses always have another trick up their sleeves. And the trick can't get much bigger than throwing in a bunch of bombshells with days to go until the ITV2 dating show's final.
