LOVE Island star Gemma Owen has swapped her incredible £4m Chester family mansion for the iconic villa.

The family previously allowed TV presenter Keith Lemon into his luxurious home for ITV’s Through the Keyhole.

They have lived in the property since it was purchased in 2001.

The amazing Grade II listed manor is set among 42 acres in the Welsh countryside.

The home boasts plenty of football memorabilia including a giant photo-frame on the wall that carries a handful of Owen’s England jerseys from the 89 caps the striker won.

But that’s not the only thing the property boasts.

There is also a heated indoor swimming pool, hot tub and a private gym.

There is also plenty of space for Gemma to look after her 12 horses, which live on the grounds of their home.

Earlier this week it was revealed that Gemma is one of 11 sexy singletons taking part in the eighth series of Love Island.

The beauty was coupled up with master’s student Liam Llewellyn, 22, by the public – but it seemed like she wasn’t that keen.

Later on in the episode Italian hunk Davide Sanclimenti, 27, entered the villa and he certainly caught Gemma’s eye.

The self-proclaimed Italian Stallion was told at the end of Monday night’s instalment that he had to pick a girl to couple up with the following day.

It was clear that there was already a spark between him and Gemma as she chose to kiss him in a game of dares.

Last night Davide decided to couple up with Gemma – leaving Liam devastated.

At the firepit, the hunk said: “Naturally it’s not been easy to choose, because normally 24 hours is difficult to try to know everyone and try to make the right decision.

“So I have decided to couple up with this girl because there is not just attraction, yes she is a stunning girl I felt we had a good time and would like to know her more.

“So the girl I would like to couple up with is Gemma.”
