Michael Owen says jealousy of wife and Love Island star daughter Gemma led to counselling

Michael Owen has previously opened up about the jealousy he suffered that led him to going for counselling. The former Liverpool and Manchester United footballer is currently watching his daughter, Gemma, attempt to find love on the 2022 series of Love Island.

Over the weekend the former England star criticised an under-18s girls' football coach over a sickening tweet about his 19-year-old daughter after previously trying to avoid addressing her participation in the ITV2 dating show. He called out a crude response on football coach Paul Proud's account after he admitting he didn't want to see Gemma kissing on the ITV dating show.

It comes as international dressage rider Gemma continues to cause a stir in the villa, a week into the eighth series. On Friday she was seen re-coupling with fishmonger Luca Bish, 23, after being paired with business owner Davide Sanclimenti, 27, from Rome but lives Manchester.
