Trouble: It comes after Davide was pictured with two women in the back of a cab while she was on a working holiday
The pair became household names following their appearance on the ITV2 dating show over the summer before ultimately beating fellow finalists Gemma Owen and Luca Bish to its cash prize.
But after settling back into a new normal following their return to the United Kingdom, Davide says his romance with Turkish actress is still weathering the course, despite his recent controversy.
He told This Morning: ‘I felt like I was out of the planet for two months, but our relationship is getting better and better.
‘When we came out we felt like proper couple boyfriend and girlfriend.’
Ekin-Su admitted she was so invested in Davide during their time in the villa that she became oblivious to the cameras that filmed her every move.

She said: ‘We forgot it was a TV show. It hit us when the finals were coming up. We were rooting for others to win.’
The couple also made light of Davide’s recent appearance at KSI’s boxing extravaganza, after which he was seen in a homeward bound cab with two Icelandic influencers.
‘It was not nice for Ekin-Su to be put in that situation,’ he admitted. ‘We were talking all that night. When I saw the newspaper I laughed.’

Ekin Su, who was in Los Angeles at the time, added: ‘I called Davide and asked what was going on – it wasn’t just them, there was a group of them. It’s nice that fans stick up to you – but our relationship is private.’
When pushed on the prospect of marriage and children, Davide said: ‘We will be next.’
Hunky Italian Davide was seen exiting a party with two Icelandic women in London a fortnight ago whilst his girlfriend was away in Los Angeles.

The Love Island winner was joined by a pal as they hopped into a taxi with the girls after watching the KSI v Swarmz and KSI v Pineda fights at the O2 Arena.
In footage obtained by The Sun, the Love Island star was joined by Anita Gunnarsdottir and her friend Matthildur Ylfa Þorsteinsd – who sat next to him during the fight.
In a new interview with Goss.ie, Ekin-Su said: ‘I mean those videos, we know it’s not true because I was talking to him the whole night. You know the relationship is between me and him and people like to talk.
‘The truth behind that is it wasn’t just him, it was a big group, and it just happened to be two girls in a taxi with him and his friend and it just looked wrong, that’s all it was.’
MailOnline contacted representatives for Davide and Ekin-Su for comment at the time.
