Michael Owen has been backed by fans after retaliating to a 'gross' remark about his teenage daughter Gemma as she stars on the new series of Love Island.
Dressage rider Gemma was the most talked about contestant on this year's line-up, before she even went into the villa, thanks to being the child of Liverpool, Newcastle and England player Michael. And, after all the anticipation over her appearance on Love Island, the 19-year-old was at the heart of the action in week one.
At the end of the first night in the villa she had her head turned by late arrival Davide, 'snubbing' original love interest Liam, before he later quit the show. And, then on Friday night's show, viewers saw Luca pick Gemma to couple up with, after admitting his feelings to her a night earlier.
