Gemma stood in front of her fellow Islanders and told Luca: 'You've actually brought out a little soft side in me too, even though I know I can be hard work sometimes'.
As Dami wiped tears from his eyes she continued: 'We've talked about and made so many plans already and I'm really excited to actually do them on the outside, so bring on our next chapter.'
She ended the speech saying: 'short but sweet' as the music swelled and she and Luca looked to Dami and Indiyah, who both gave the approval.

Tears: As Dami wiped tears from his eyes she continued: 'We've talked about and made so many plans already and I'm really excited to actually do them on the outside, so bring on our next chapter'
Many viewers didn't believe Dami's tears were genuine following his ongoing difficulties with Gemma.
One wrote: 'U guys [who believed his tears were real] confused af. Dami crying tears of joy over realising he doesn't have to listen to Gemma again after this night'.
While another added: Gemma your speech was s*** babes ...How is Dami crying?' along with 'Why's Dami crying for Gem and Luca?'.
Unconvinced: The 26-year-old struggled to contain his emotions during the moment, as fans rushing to Twitter with one declaring he was actually crying 'tears of happiness' because he would never have to see Gemma again
While one viewer wrote: 'Not Dami crying at the most unemotional dry speech ever'. Followed by: 'GET THEM OFF MY SCREEN - DAMY WHY ARE YOU CRYING?'.
Another commented: 'Dami crying for the couple he thought was least compatible'.
Later in the evening Ekin-Su and Davide were crowned the Love Island 2022 winners and split the £50,000 prize money.

The couple finished ahead of Gemma and Luca who were awarded second place and narrowly missed out on the money, with bosses deciding to ditch the 'split or steal' twist that usually comes at the end.
In previous years, winners have picked an envelope which either has the prize money or nothing enclosed, with one person being given the £50,000 with the option to split or steal the cash.
This year, host Laura Whitmore announced they would automatically be sharing the money as producers opted to ditch the tradition which has been in place since series one.

As the news was announced, emotional Ekin-Su jumped into her beau's arms as they celebrated their win and speechless Davide exclaimed he 'couldn't believe it'.
Reflecting on his own experience, Davide said: 'I didn't expect this at the beginning - I'm with my other half it's like a dream now!'
Earlier in the programme, Indiyah and Dami were awarded third place on the dating programme ahead of Tasha and Andrew who finished narrowly behind them in fourth place.
