Mark Wright responds to Love Island's Luca Bish's 'punching' dig about wife Michelle

Mark Wright has responded to a savage dig made about him in the latest episode of Love Island.

Luca Bish, 23, name dropped the TOWIE star on the ITV2 dating show as he said he thought he was "punching" with wife Michelle Keegan. The Brighton fishmonger, who is coupled up with Gemma Owen, randomly brought up the reality star in conversation with Adam Collard and Paige Thorne.

Coming out of the blue as the three stood in the kitchen, Luca asked: “Oi Adam, would you say Mark Wright's really good-looking?”. Adam replied he thought he was “pretty good-looking”, before Luca declared Mark was “not all that”.

Luca then made it clear he thought Mark was “punching big time”, causing a stir in the villa as viewers were left baffled at the sudden dig.

It appears Mark, 35, was left equally baffled at the random comment as he took to Twitter to subtly respond.

Posting a bleary-eyed topless selfie from bed, Mark wrote: “8:30am in Sydney…. minding my own business (literally sleeping) Waking up like…. What did I do? #luca”.

As the Islanders discussed the matter, viewers began tweeting asking why Luca suddenly "slated" Mark Wright, as they noted his "dig".

One fan commented: "Luca what did Mark Wright ever do to you please?"

Another agreed: "why is luca slating mark wright?" as a third tweeted: "Luca’s random dig at Mark Wright."

A fourth fan wrote: "What did mark wright do to Luca lmao," as another tweeted: "Not Luca trying to say Mark Wright isn’t hot, is he threatened by him too."

The comments kept coming too, with one reading: "Luca is arrogant as pork pie! What is he on about with Mark Wright."

Another wrote: “Strangest thing from that episode is Luca trying to convince himself that Mark Wright isn’t good looking.

“Not the first time Luca has mentioned Michelle Keegan either. Clearly someone is a little obsessed with her & jelly of her husband.”

Love Island airs every night at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub.
