Love Island fans surprised over Gemma Owen's connection to Casa Amor contestant

Love Island viewers were surprised to learn of Gemma Owen's connection to a Casa Amor contestant. The daughter of former England footballer Michael Owen stars in the latest series of the ITV2 show.

Gemma has been coupled with fishmonger Luca Bish. They had an argument earlier in the week after she said she could turn her attention if someone "100 percent her type" entered the Majorcan villa.

The Liverpool Echo reports the couple have since resolved their issue and spent the night together in the hideaway on Thursday's episode. However, the villa was later rocked with chaos by the introduction of Casa Amor.

The second villa sees the arrival of a new batch of Islanders - and has traditionally resulted in the show's most dramatic moments as heads may be turned. Viewers following the show on Twitter were stunned when they discovered Gemma already follows new contestant, Billy Brown, on Instagram.

Fans also spotted the Islander has a connection with one of Gemma's ex boyfriends. Camille said: "Wait Gemma follows Billy on Instagram." Heyzaliz added: "OK but why is nobody talking about how Gemma knows billy."

Demi wrote: "nahhhh this is actually the Gemma show… the new boy Billy is her ex’s best friend" @Chaelilys tweeted: "Gemma knows Billy??? UH OH."
