I’m a body language expert and Love Island’s Liam is ‘hurt’ by Gemma’s snog with Davide

A BODY language expert has claimed Gemma Owen and Davide Sanclimenti’s kiss ‘hurt’ her partner Liam Llewellyn.

Last night Gemma, 19, and bombshell Davide, 27, became the first islanders to snog this year.

The smooch came just hours after the public matched Gemma with Welshman Liam.

Speaking on behalf of Betfair Casino, Darren Stanton said: “Liam appears to be a genuinely nice guy and while he obviously gelled with Gemma at first, she hasn’t connected with him in the same way he has her. Her sights are firmly fixed on Davide, as we saw in the first task when she chose to kiss him instead. 

“As Gemma kissed Davide a micro-expression of fear flashed across Liam’s face, as he realised her true intentions. From his facial expression, it’s clear to see that Gemma’s action hurt Liam very deeply and a lot more than he let on. Again, we saw sadness appear across his face, if only fleeting.”

And according to Darren, Gemma struggled with her emotions too after the racy moment.

He continued: “Speaking in the beach hut about the kiss, Gemma admitted it was ‘brutal’ to have done that to Liam. Both her lips and eyes widened – a sign of uneasiness suggesting Gemma may be afraid of how her actions will be perceived by the rest of the group. I do not believe she felt any real remorse. Gemma seems to be the type of personality that will go directly for what she wants. 

“She’s dominant and strong natured and as a result will likely be more attracted to a dominant man. Liam is much of a nice guy and won’t be a challenge for her. He seems slightly introverted and a bit naive, suggesting that his romance with Gemma may be over before it even began.

“Gemma, meanwhile, is definitely one of the islanders to keep an eye on as the series develops.”

Viewers were left uneasy with the kiss because of the pair’s eight-year age gap.

Some threatened to complain to broadcast regulator Ofcom while others want show bosses to up the age of contestants next year.

However, others urged viewers to stop ‘infantalising’ grown ups.
