Who knows Gemma Owen is Michael’s daughter?

Every Love Island fan is well aware that Gemma is the daughter of footy hero Michael Owen.

But since entering the villa, the professional equestrian has kept her claim to fame a secret.

There have been a few occasions she has dropped hints about who her footballer dad is.

But viewers are keen to know which of her fellow Islanders are aware of her famous family.

‘PROBLEMATIC’

Love Island RECAP: Fans slam Gemma for her behaviour with Jacques

It’s understood that they broke up a year and a half ago, adding that they were together for eight months.

This means that Gemma and Jacques began dating roughly around summertime 2020, before splitting at the beginning of 2021.

He has also revealed on the show that they both “knew each others families”.

Luca Bish



Fans reckon Luca Bish knows who Gem’s dad is Michael Owen

Love Island fans have been convinced that Luca Bish is playing a game – and knows EXACTLY who Gemma’s dad is.

When the pair first chatted about whether they would make a good potential couple, with Gemma insisting Luca would fit in at home.

She told the sport-mad Love Island favourite that she had no doubt he would “get on well” with her dad, who also liked sports.

She refused to spill the beans on her dad’s football career – as Luca made an awkward dig accidentally at the former footballer.

Despite playing it cool – and not giving away that he knew who Gemma’s famous father was – fans are convinced he knows.

They took to Twitter in their droves to suggest the reality star had been playing tactically, and was after Gemma for “free tickets”.

“Luca knows who Gemma’s dad is!” one said, as a second chimed in: “Luca wants those hospitality tickets to the football.”

A third chimed in: “Luca obviously knows who Gemma’s dad is. He’s trying to hang up his fish boots and chill in the mansion.”

However, it has not been shown on TV whether he does know or not.

Liam Llewellyn



Liam Llewellyn dropped hints he knew about Gemma’s famous family

Although his time in the villa was short, while Liam Llewellyn was coupled up with Gemma, fans were convinced he knew Michael Owen was Gem’s dad.

One viewer wrote on twitter: “Liam definitely knows who Gemma’s dad is, the way he’s asking those questions.”

Another said: “Not sure why people are coming for Gemma! Liam knows she isn’t in to him and clearly knows who her dad is and is trying to get her to discuss it before she’s ready.”

This was never confirmed though.
