Gemma Owen says Luca Bish still hasn't "made things official" despite them leaving Love Island two weeks ago.
The pair were runners-up on the ITV2 dating show, having been coupled up for weeks. And Gemma, football legend Michael Owen's daughter, told Luca she wanted to wait until he'd met her family before they became girlfriend and boyfriend.
But even after Luca got the seal of approval from her ex-England footballer dad on holiday in Portugal, Gemma is "still waiting". In a chat on Capital FM, she was asked: "Is this like an act of waiting, you're wanting it to happen?' to which the she replied: "Well I feel like at this point yeah!"

Host Lauren Layfield then said: "You've been waiting a little while now, and we've all been waiting, so now I want proposal levels of asking you out, do you know, I mean I want it big!" Gemma replied: "I mean I know I said in the villa let's wait till we get out, want you to meet the family, let's not rush it, but now I'm like, okay…"
Luca teased he had big plans for the pair in Portugal, sharing a snap of the couple on Instagram with the caption: "Mission ask Gem to be my girlfriend is in motion". However, Gemma insisted she had "no updates", reports The Mirror.
She also dismissed rumours the pair were moving in together like show winners Davide Sancilmenti and Ekin-Su Culculoglu, saying: 'Right now we're all just trying to settle down with our new lives. Let's be boyfriend and girlfriend and then we can talk about moving in together."
Gemma has revealed that Luca was given the "green light" from her dad Michael on holiday. Speaking on The Six O'Clock Show, she said the couple have "got approval" from the former footballer after spending time together in Portugal.
She said: "Family thumbs up, very good. We had a little trip, a bit of work, bit of relaxing, met all of them there. That was really positive and really nice. Now we've got the approval, the ball's in his court. Just waiting for him."
Confirming the pair weren't yet "official", she added: "I'm not being fussy at this point, not a big gesture just something nice. Let's just put a label on it."
Taking to Brian Dowling and Fionnuala Jones, Gemma continued: "Everyone's asking me 'are you and Luca official yet?' We're basically living like we are official but we just don't have that label."
