Love Island winners Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan have revealed the selfless things they plan to spend their £50,000 cash prize on.
The couple, both 24, were left gobsmacked when they beat day one couple Ron Hall and Lana Jenkins to take home the money on Sunday night’s final.
And social worker Sanam has now revealed she plans to use some of the money to support her mum – who he is on her own after her dad passed away – as well as potentially invest in projects to help children.
Meanwhile teacher Kai told how he is planning to go on nice holidays with the money and plenty of fancy dates.
Speaking on The Morning After podcast, Kai revealed: ‘We have about a thousand dates planned. We said we want to go to the Amalfi coast and Santorini. I feel like they are more holidays than dates.

Wow: The couple, both 24, were left gobsmacked when they beat day one couple Ron Hall and Lana Jenkins to take home the money on Sunday night’s final
‘Maybe invest a little bit.’
Sanam continued: ‘I am going to be soppy but I am going to give my mum some of course because it’s just me and mum so I have got to support her aswell.
‘I was literally on the phone going ‘Mum you are getting some, I don’t care what Kai says you are getting some’ and the rest we will spend on ourselves, invest and build something with it.’
She continued: ‘We have actually spoken about – we come from jobs where we both work with children and I actually want to be able to do something for those children.
‘I don’t know what it is because I am not very business minded but that is something I want to do and we want to pursue with that.’
Their victory marked the first time a Casa Amor bombshell has entered the show and gone on to win in the show’s eight-year history.
Tom Clare, 23, and Samie Elishi, 22, placed third in the competition, while airport security officer Shaq Muhammad, 24, and Tanya Manhenga, 22 were the first out.
The couple were left speechless when host Maya Jama announced the results during the live final in South Africa on Monday.

After their win, Sanam told Maya, 28: ‘I can’t believe it’, while Kai was lost for words.
Before their win, Sanam accidentally revealed she is in love with Kai, while he told viewers to ‘watch this space’ about making the beauty his girlfriend in the outside world.
She said of their romance: ‘For me, it was always Kai, like I always said he was my number one. Obviously, he is a very attractive guy but I fell in love with everything.
‘Everything about him, I just loved it. I really didn’t think I was gonna be here. I’m going to cry.’
Like every romance on the show, Kai and Sanam have had a rough ride – after the PE teacher’s former love interest Olivia Hawkins left furious when his head was turned in Casa Amor – as was hers.
But Kai’s decision to re-couple with Sanam has proven to be a worthy one as they have remained strong ever since.
In their interview, the PE teacher noted his journey on the show had been a ‘rollercoaster’ but he is looking forward to treating Sanam away from the glamour of the South African villa.
‘It’s been a rollercoaster,’ he said. ‘But literally, she blew me away. I think it’s the eyes.

Cute! Before their win, Sanam accidentally revealed she is in love with Kai, while he told viewers to ‘watch this space’ about making the beauty his girlfriend in the outside world
‘I always to her that it was the first conversation we had, she did the eyes. But she doesn’t do it anymore! After that first one, we just got closer and closer.
‘She doesn’t leave my side and I absolutely love her. In here, it’s amazing and you have so many people working around you, arranging the most amazing dates ever but I can’t wait to be able to put my time and effort into her and show her how amazing she is.
‘On the outside, she’s going to be my girlfriend but I want that control.
‘I’m gonna make it so special and I have told her so many times that she is gonna be my girlfriend on the outside. So keep a look out.’
