Love Island's Jacques O’Neill 'snubs' ex Gemma Owen before going in villa

Jacques O'Neill has appeared to snub ex Gemma Owen before he's even gone into the Love Island villa.

At the very end of Friday's show, viewers got a quick glimpse of Jacques, former boyfriend of Michael Owen's daughter Gemma, as narrator Iain Stirling confirmed that he was the latest bombshell of the ITV2's new series. As Jacques fleetingly flashed up on screen, Gemma could heard shouting: "Oh god. That's my ex!"

Love Island viewers are set to get a first proper look at Jacques, who was released from his rugby contract to go on the show, on Sunday's show, but, prior to going in the villa he failed to mention Gemma at all, even when discussing his past relationships.
