As the show ended last night, Davide revealed that wants to couple up with Gemma.

David joined the villa later than the others, after the public already selected which contestants they wanted to partner up.

Gemma and Davide don’t look good together, I just had to say it.

This gave Davide all the power as he got to decide which girl he wanted to couple up with after 24 hours in the villa.

After a day of flirting with all the girls, it was obvious that Davide had set his sights on Gemma, Tasha and Paige.

But ultimately Davide decided to go with Gemma, leaving her former partner Liam Llewelyn vulnerable as he is now the only single in the villa.

“The girl I would like to couple up with is… Gemma.”
