Love Island fans 'work out' when Gemma Owen will reveal famous dad

Love Island 2022 is well underway, with Michael Owen's daughter Gemma a contestant since day one.

The 19-year-old international dressage rider has not revealed the identity if her famous dad to the rest of the group yet, though she has dropped a few hints. Thursday's episode saw Gemma tell fellow Islander Lucas Bish about the sort of things her dad likes.

She told Luca she felt her dad would get on well with him because they're both sporty - however, she managed to navigate the conversation without spilling the beans on her dad's name.

He asked her: "Who do you feel like your family would get on best with out of all the boys in here?" She said: "You. Because you're sporty and you're into football and into racing. I think my dad would have stuff in common with you."

Luca continued with the questions, as he said: "Would your dad and me go out and do stuff together? Or does he not get involved with your boyfriends?" She replied: "He was quite close with my first boyfriend and I think he appreciates a guy who is into sports and all that kind of stuff. So I heard you like talking about football and racing and all that, so I'm like hmm."

Some Love Island fans think they've now worked out how and when the truth about Gemma's family will be revealed. Taking to Twitter, Sheree said: "It will be week 6 when Gemma reveals who her dad is".

Shireen said: "I really hope Gemma stays in until the families visit and that she still hasn’t told anyone who her dad is and then he walks in". Lydia said: "Gemma has committed. She isn't gonna tell anyone who her dad is and then MO is gonna bounce in when the families visit #LoveIsland"

Jamie said: "Now Liam's gone, she's never mentioning Michael Owen is she? [cry-face emoji].

Love Island continues at 9pm on Sunday on ITV2 and the ITV Hub
