ITV Love Island's Luca Bish answers fans' burning question as he makes 'protective' Gemma joke

He's not long landed back in the UK after more than two months in Spain but Luca Bish is already getting up to speed on his Love Island journey from the eyes of those who have been on the outside.

The 23-year-old fishmonger finished runner-up during the final of the ITV2 dating show on Monday (August 1) alongside new partner Gemma Owen. The pair were pipped to the crown, and £50,000 cash prize, by the public's chosen winners Ekin-Su Culculoglu and Davide Sanclimenti.

They made it to the final alongside the couple as well as Indiyah Polack and Dami Hope who finished their journey in third place and Tasha Ghouri and Andrew Le Page who placed fourth despite being the first couple to declare their love and become boyfriend and girlfriend in the Mallorcan villa.

The islanders jetted back home on Wednesday (August 3) with their family and friends giving them a warm welcome at Stanstead Airport. But before they flew out of Mallorca, the final four couples were holed up in a holding villa and with their phones back in their possession, they couldn't help but jump back on social media and took part in several Instagram lives to greet their new-found followers.

Luca and fellow finalist Andrew appeared in a short live together in which real estate agent Andrew said: "Where is Gem? Oi, people are requesting Gem. People are requesting Gem, go get her." After taking over the filming, Luca said: "You want Gem? You want Gem? No chance. I’m so protective. Nah," clearly hitting back in a jokey manner at the comments which have been made about him while he's been away.

Luca and Andrew could be heard laughing before Luca made his way towards his partner who was laying on a bed in their room. The clip then showed the 19-year-old daughter of former footballer Michael Owen waving before Luca bends down to plant a kiss on her.

.Meanwhile, since arriving back in the UK, Luca's sister Claudia, who has been running his social media account while he's been away finding love, wasted no time in asking him a burning question which got viewers talking while he was in the villa. Filming her brother, she asked why he wore his hoody to bed every night.

"Why did he wear a hoodie to bed every night," she wrote across the black and white video as Luca sat at home alongside all his cases. "Been itching to ask this for two months!!!!" Claudia added before Luca confirmed it was because "we were right under the aircon."
