LOVE Island winners Tayla Damir and Grant Crapp are now looking to move in together­ — before most likely planning a wedding.

After being crowned season one winners of the controversial reality dating show, the couple say that they will move from Perth and Canberra respectively to set up a home together­ in Sydney.

“We’ve spoken about it (marriage) and obviously we would never have gotten into the relationship if we didn’t think that it was possible,” Damir said.

“We know we can live together­, we’ve done it for six weeks so we will be fine.”

Crapp, 22, described Damir as “wife material”.

“I look at Tayla with a long-term picture,” he said.

“She would be a really good mother and I am very happy where we are at with our relationship and, who knows, marriage could be on the cards.”

Damir, 21, joked that if they did get married, they might take her surname instead of his.

“My parents would be happy with that,” she said with a laugh.

The couple beat out rival couples Eden Dally and Erin Barnett and Josh Moss and Amelia Marni to secure the $50,000 prizemoney — but said they weren’t driven by the cash.

“It is nice to know that Australia believed in our love just as much as we did,” Damir said. “We never went in to Love Island hoping or even imagining we’d win.

“Our only and main goal was to find love.”
