Ekin-Su’s secret plan for Love Island final revealed in bombshell texts
LOVE Island’s Ekin-Su Culculoglu looks set to ditch a secret gameplan to steal the £50,000 prize money after falling for Davide Sanclimenti.
The bombshell told a friend in May that she saw the ITV2 programme as a “game show” - so would make the “business” decision to trouser the prize if she didn’t truly find The One.
It would make the Turkish actress the first winner in Love Island history to not share the prize.
But emotional scenes on tonight’s show suggest Ekin-Su has abandoned her plan for love, after the Italian stallion told her they would “last forever”.
In a text message seen by The Sun before she entered the villa, Ekin’s friend asked if she had thought whether she might ‘steal’ the prize money if she won.
Realistic Ekin, 27, replied: “It’s a game show at the end of the day, it’s business. If it’s not genuine I’d be tempted.
“But I’m at the right age to find the right guy. I know what I’m looking for. I want to find The One.”
In the ITV2 show finale, the winning couple are given an envelope each, which have £0 and £50k in respectively.
They’re then asked whether they want to share the money or steal it.
Tonight Ekin and Davide will be seen on one of Love Island’s most romantic dates ever.

Opera singer Alfie Boe serenades the couple as they dine in a colosseum, surrounded by flickering candles.
Raising a toast, Davide said: “To our beautiful experience and hopefully we will last forever - it will last forever.”
Ekin was left barely able to speak and both became tearful.

She adds: "I feel like I’m in a dream. This is probably the most romantic date I’ve ever been on in my life. I just can’t get over this. It’s everything I’ve always wanted.”
A source said: “There’s a reason why Ekin and Davide are still together and viewers are so invested in them - that kind of chemistry can’t be faked. Whatever she might’ve thought going into the villa is irrelevant now, really. Love conquers all.”
