Love Island's Gemma Owen shows off horse riding skills to Luca Bish at £4m mansion

Gemma Owen has impressed partner Luca Bish as she showed off her horse riding skills at the stables of dad Michael Owen's £4 million Cheshire mansion.

Gemma, 19, is an international dressage champion and took to her horse to show Luca, her special talent. She looked chic in an all-black equestrian outfit complete with matching boots and helmet and shared the clip to her Instagram Story on Sunday.

Gemma also shared the video on her TikTok as she put the animal through its paces. She captioned the post: "Not at all rider fit yet but loving being back."

A remix of Nico & Vinz's 2013 track, Am I Wrong, played in the background and Luca could be seen at the end posing with the animal. It comes after Gemma had uploaded a snap of the pair and her horse Sirius alongside the caption: "New bromance."

Luca, who coupled up with Gemma in this year's Love Island, quickly replied to her post with: "The boy." The duo finished second in the dating show but are yet to make their relationship official.

And Luca is said to fear being dumped by the beauty. He teased that he may have recently showcased one of her 'biggest icks' - with fans hoping that she will be able to look past the fashion choice.

The fishmonger, 23, shared a photo of himself on Instagram this morning in which he was seen wearing a white t-shirt, a beige jacket, black trousers and a pair of white trainers.

He teased in the accompanying caption that the ensemble could present a challenge for partner Gemma after he noticed a sock peeking out from inside his footwear.

The former islander wrote alongside the photo: "Oh no ... is that a sock visible in my trainer."

He later added the image to his Story and asked his fans if he should be worried. His comments were a reference to Gemma's introductory VT in which she revealed that someone wearing socks with trainers can be quite a turn off for her.

She explained prior to entering the villa: "My biggest ick is a guy that wears socks with trainers". Gemma however suggested that "ballerina socks" are suitable options.
