Love Island winner Davide Sanclimenti to host speed dating event in Manchester restaurant

Last year’s Love Island winner Davide Sanclimenti is to host a speed dating event in a Manchester restaurant - helping singletons to find true love.

A whopping 6.2 million singles are searching for ‘the one’ this summer.

To help singles seeking love and avoid giving their date ‘the ick’, last year’s Love Island winner Davide has teamed up with restaurant company Prezzo to host speed dating events, where he’ll be providing advice on how to get it right.

Latest dating data from Prezzo found that almost half (46%) of the nation believes in love at first sight, meaning speed dating could be the answer for Brits looking for love and it could be love at first bite at the Prezzo events.

One in five (21%) of Brits would even consider going on a reality tv show in order to find love, making Davide an ideal advisor in their quest for romance.

Davide Sanclimenti was an Islander on Season 8 of the revived series of Love Island. He entered the villa on Day one and was crowned the winner alongside Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu on Day 58.

The launch of the Prezzo Speed Dating evenings coincides with the launch of Prezzo’s all-new Summer menu.

Davide Sanclimenti said: “The only thing I love more than Italian food is helping people find love, so these speed dating events see the marriage of both of those things. I’m excited to help play matchmaker and host the speed dating events with Prezzo, hopefully some people will leave with a pizza someone else’s heart.”

Dean Challenger, Chief Executive Officer, Prezzo said: ““The summer of love is upon us and who better to help people meet their prefect partner than Davide, who will be helping our speed daters enjoy our new delicious summer menu which is perfect for lunch or dinner’.

For the brave Brits looking to join Davide and fellow singles in their hunt for love, head over to Design My Night to book your slot at one of the two speed dating events in London on June 8 and Manchester on June 15.
