Love Island star Luca Bish has revealed how ITV producers tried to prevent him from "pulling" Gemma Owen during early episodes of the dating show.
Appearing on Made in Chelsea stars Jamie Laing and Alex Mytton's Private Parts podcast, the 23-year-old said he was compelled to pursue fellow islanders Paige Thorne and Tasha Ghouri to enable a better storyline. Luca said: "From the start, they were like, 'Right, Tasha, Paige - focus on them, Gemma is having a thing with Davide and Liam'.
"And I was like, 'Yeah, but the public put me with Paige', and Tasha pulled me for a chat, and as much as they're both lovely, the one person that I actually want to chat to is Gemma. So on the second night, I said I wanted to pull Gemma, and they were like, 'No, you're not allowed'.
