Love Island’s Gemma Owen reveals Luca Bish and her father Michael’s first meeting ‘couldn’t have gone better’

Love Island star Gemma Owen has revealed that her partner Luca Bish’s first meeting with footballer dad Michael Owen went successfully.

The 19-year-old international dressage rider and swimwear designer appeared on Capital Breakfast’s radio show on Wednesday morning to drop the relationship update since exiting the Love Island villa as runners-up.

Owen remarked that 23-year-old Bish’s first meeting with her father, Michael Owen, went down during their family holiday in Portugal and that it “couldn’t have gone better”.

The couple is yet to go official with labels, but that has not stopped them from plans of moving in together in the future.

Owen told radio show hosts Rob Howard and Lauren Layfield about the family trip abroad, saying: “It couldn’t have gone better, it was so nice! 

“We got away for four days, it was a bit of like, got a bit of content, bit of chill time but yeah it was a really nice environment for him to meet everyone.

“They all get on really well and how he was with my brothers and sisters as well, like, so cute!”

On boyfriend and girlfriend labels she added: “I mean I know I said in the villa let’s wait till we get out, want you to meet the family, let’s not rush it, but now I’m like, okay…”

Following Love Island winners Ekin-Su and Davide announcing their plans to move in together in September around the Essex area, Owen and fishmonger Bish, from Brighton, have pondered over the question.

She said: “In the future for sure, right now we’re all just trying to settle down with our new lives, but I think definitely.

“Let’s be [boyfriend and] girlfriend and then we can talk about moving in together!”
