Davide‘s make-up artist pal Biancamaria Raso, 30, has long brunette hair and petite features like Michael Owen’s daughter.
Biancamaria posted numerous pictures of them together looking very cosy in Manchester, Italy and on holiday.
At one point she referred to him as “my love” and he often replied with love hearts showing a softer side to the Italian Stallion seen on screen.
Davide sparked speculation they could be more than friends though as he said last night: “I normally go for younger girls but my last girlfriend was older than me.”

During the first episode, Davide shocked his fellow islanders as he entered the villa late, walking in and asking “did anyone order an Italian snack?”
It was soon revealed that Davide would have 24 hours to decide which girl he wanted to couple up with, ultimately leaving one boy without a partner.
In Tuesday evening’s show, Davide chose to couple up with daughter of former England footballer Michael Owen Gemma after also getting to know dancer and model Tasha and paramedic Paige.
While stood at the firepit before making his choice, business owner Davide, who is originally from Rome but lives in Manchester, said: “Naturally, it has not been easy to choose because in only 24 hours it is difficult to try to know everyone and try to make the right decision.

“So I decided to couple up with this girl because there’s not just attraction, I mean, yes she is a stunning girl, but I felt we really have a good time and I would like to know her more.”
Speaking to Davide earlier in the episode, Gemma revealed he was very much her type, after she had also expressed reservations about her initial partner Liam.
