Apart from Love Island's Gemma Owen, who are Michael Owen's other children?

Love Island star Gemma Owen is the daughter of former Newcastle United, Liverpool and England striker Michael Owen. Gemma, 19, is among the favourites to win the ITV show outright with her partner Luca.

But what else do we know about the teenager and her family? She is the oldest of Michael Owen’s four children with childhood sweetheart Louise Bonsall, reports the Echo.

The Owen family live in a £4m mansion in Chester that sits on land the size of 21 football pitches. Gemma has three siblings - James Owen, 16, Emily Owen, 14, and Jessica Owen, aged 12.

James was diagnosed as clinically blind in 2019 and is reported to suffer from Stargardt disease - a rare illness which affects one in 8,000 people. Speaking about it to the Times, Michael said: "He will never be a footballer. My son's got an eye condition.

"I've never said this. I don't want a big headline. Clinically, he’s blind. He’s got Stargardt disease, a degeneration of his retina."

Meanwhile Emily is a keen sportswoman and has been successful at a county and national level. Her dad posted a picture on Instagram listing her recent achievements, which included becoming 60m indoor champion and 100m winner at a county level, as well as coming third in the English girls under-15s 100m race.

Jessica seems to be following in the footsteps of her eldest sister. Like Gemma, she is a keen horse rider and was pictured by Michael riding with the caption: "While the eldest is away, my youngest is progressing well on her pride and joy, Jigsaw. Well done @jess_0wen." He followed the text with an in-love emoji.

Gemma's mum Louise Bosnall has been married to Michael since 2005. The two met in 1984 at Hawarden High School in Flintshire, Wales. Louise, 42, is an enthusiastic equestrian and co-founded Manor House Stables in 2006, according to the Metro.
