Love Island Gemma's 'connection marker' with Billy exposes true feelings, expert claims

Gemma Owen has been coupled up with Luca Bish since week one on Love Island, but fans suspect Casa boy Billy Brown wishes it wasn't that way.

Gemma and Billy have mutual friends outside the villa, and are often seen bantering away - much to the annoyance of Luca.

But does he really have anything to worry about? Body language expert Bruce Durham believes Gemma has let her true feelings slip, and its not particularly good news for either man.

Looking at the 'micro-gestures' Gemma shows Billie, the founder of Believing Bruce says: "The openness of her body towards his, the giggles, the light banter, she’s definitely not pushing him away.

"Even the elongated eye contact that is present is a ‘connection marker’ between the two of them."

However, despite their shared attraction, Bruce does believe her connection with Luca is genuine, but insists it won't stop her toying with Billie.

He continued: "She is very comfortable with Luca. She leans into him, listens to him fully, gives him reassurance and although he is without doubt the most affectionate of the two, she accepts his offerings with little effort.

"So, overall, think of Billy as the family dog that Gemma enjoys playing with but it’s Luca who gets to sleep in the martial bed while Billy gets put in the kennel at night!"

Meanwhile, Gemma might not be the only one with feelings for boys other than the one she's with.

According to fans, Tasha is pining for a certain villa hunk - and it's not Andrew or Billy.

And that's in the form of newest bombshell Adam Collard, 26, who has arrived to shake things up good and proper.

The series 4 star pulled Tasha for a chat on his first day, but after the merry-go-round of Andrew and Billy, she could only laugh when he asked if she was up for getting to know anyone else.

However, eagle-eyed fans are convinced that she is secretly crushing on Adam, and that she only got back with Andrew because Adam wasn't showing an interest.

One fan tweeted: "I think Tasha's crying 'cause she got Andrew back but Adam came in then she started stalling saying she was 'scared of Andrew hurting her'.

"But Adam isn't interested in her. I reckon she gets the pick of irl but on Love Island she's got Andrew & Billy & she's disappointed."

Another added: "Tasha realized Adam wasn’t going to move on her so she’s settled with Andrew…again," and a third commented, "If Adam showed interest in Tasha she definitely would’ve done Andrew dirty again. Lol."

And now some viewers think it's just a matter of time before Tasha puts her supposed plan into action and starts getting to know Adam.

"Ah mate, Andrew, Tasha wants a bit of Adam," said one, while another joked, "Tasha tomorrow about Adam: 'He brings out this flirty side of me that I haven't seen in a while."

"I wonder what side adam will pull out of tasha," another quipped.

Love Island continues tonight on ITV2 at 9pm.
