Michael Owen has hit back at a sickening comment made by a football coach on Twitter about his daughter Gemma who is currently appearing on Love Island. He shut down the vile tweet while his 19-year-old daughter continues to star in the hit ITV show.
The former England star previously admitted he didn't want to see Gemma kissing on the show but this prompted a crude response from Glasgow City FC under-18 academy coach Paul Proud. The coach tweeted: "Can’t wait to see her getting smashed", Birmingham Live reports.
But ex-Liverpool star Michael, who also played for Manchester United, Stoke City, and Newcastle United, as well as Real Madrid, hit back on Twitter saying: "What a fine example to set from a man in your responsible position." Fans followed suit in criticising the coach, with one writing: "Nice comment from a fella who works with youths."
