The businessman ordered a dessert as they enjoyed dinner in Prezzo, which had ‘Moving in?’ piped on the tray in chocolate sauce.
A delighted Ekin-Su responding through giggles: ‘Yes!’, as the couple then shared a kiss before taking a spoonful each of the tiramisu and feeding it to each other.
He captioned the loved-up video: ‘The beginning of a new beautiful chapter.’
Back in August, Ekin-Su announced on Lorraine that her and Davide were planning on moving in together at the end of September.
But due to their chaotic work schedules, the couple haven’t had time to house hunt and appear to be pushing back their move in date.
While they explained at the recent National Television Awards that while they were originally looking at Essex, they’re hunting in London now due to work.
Congratulations! it comes after Davide and Ekin-Su revealed they are taking the next step in their relationship and are officially moving in together
