Love Island's Gemma and Luca's mums show there is no bad feelings after fan backlash

Gemma Owen and Luca Bish's mums show there's no ill feelings after posing for a snap after going out for dinner together.

Louise Owen shared her concerns over Luca and Dami Hope's behaviour towards Tasha Ghouri on Love Island last month.

She said it was "close to bullying" which was "so sad to see".

But there appears to be no problems between the parents as she got together with Luca's mum.

Gemma was reunited with her mum and pal Sarah after her dad Michael Owen confirmed earlier this month that he would not enter the Love Island villa.

Louise posted shared a photo of the two mums on Instagram from Luca's account after spending some time together.

"The lovely mothers of the love bird out for dinner cheering on their babies," the black and white snap was captioned.

It's down to the final four couples tonight as they take on - Dami Hope and Indiyah Polack, Andrew Le Page and Tasha Ghouri, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti.

Despite Gemma's football star dad's absence, he came up in the conversation.

Louise said she had seen people on Twitter remarking on the England striker's resemblance to Luca.

She said: "It's all over social media that Luca looks like your dad."

As Gemma cringed at the comment and Luca laughed it off, viewers were left stunned at the awkward comparison, which had some uncomfortable implications.

A second said: “Not the family saying Luca looks like Michael Owen?? Freud has never been wrong!”

A third posted: “Anyone else find it weird how they think Luca looks like Michael Owen?”

Another tweeted: “Luca getting gassed being called Michael Owen look-like,” alongside a crying laughing emoji.

Love Island airs every night at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub.
