Another recoupling is looming in the Love Island villa as the fourth week of the hit ITV2 show is underway. A sneak peak preview of Wednesday night's episode revealed that the Islanders are set to face their next recoupling tonight (June 29), with the power left in the girl's hands.

For someone who’s only been in the Love Island villa for a few weeks, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu has certainly had her fair share of relationship dramas.The Turkish actress, 27, came in as a bombshell, stealing Davide Sanclimenti from under Gemma Owen’s nose, but then in walked Scottish businessmen Jay Younger and her head was immediately turned. Sneaking off for cheeky snogs with Jay, she was soon caught and Davide, 27, was not left happy.

Love Island stars will usually fit the three F requirement: flirty, fit, and flamin' hot, but have you ever wondered what they looked like before the fame... and potential fortune? More F's for the record, just FYI. But seriously, when it comes to our sun-filled and sex-fuelled summer of single souls searching for love, there's definitely a bar of attractiveness that they all certainly have to meet.

Love Island star Jacques O'Neill and Gemma Owen broke up for a specific reason. The pair split after 18 months together before they entered the villa. The duo were forced to call time on their relationship due to it becoming a 75 mile long distance relationship.

Daily Star exclusively reports. Having competed since a young age, Gemma has taken part in big competitions, she previously revealed.

Gemma Owen has found herself at the centre of the drama in the Love Island villa so far, especially after the recent arrival of one of her ex-boyfriends, Jacques O'Neill. The 19 year old, who is former professional footballer Michael Owen's eldest daughter, was left shocked when Jacques, 23, entered the famous villa as a bombshell, and exclaimed: "Oh my god, that's my ex-boyfriend," as she saw his face.

We're a week into the latest series Love Island and one contestant is arguably the most discussed Islander in the famous villa this year. Dressage rider Gemma Owen, the daughter of former Liverpool, Manchester United and England striker Michael Owen, had viewers talking just a couple of days in after she coupled-up with Italian hunk Davide Sanclimenti who lives in Manchester.

Good Morning Britain host Susanna Reid has taken a slight dig at Michael Owen's daughter, Gemma, who is currently starring on this year's series of Love Island. The stunning 19 year old daughter of the former Liverpool and England football hero has dominated much of the show's storylines since entering the famous Mallorcan villa just a week ago. And on this morning's GMB, self-confessed Love Island fan Susanna, 51, questioned whether the show was actually 'Gemma Island'.

Love Island fans are almost a week into the new series and there has already been a recoupling and not one but FOUR bombshells, starting with Davide Sanclimenti and more recently the arrival of Gemma Owen's ex Jacques O'Neill.

Susanna Reid had a little bit of Love Island shade to share this morning as she returned to Good Morning Britain. The presenter was back hosting the show on Monday (June 13) alongside Richard Madeley.

Michael Owen has slammed Love Island viewers who have called his daughter Gemma "rude and too young". The 19 year old dressage rider and daughter of the famous footballer has caused quite the stir since entering the villa this week, being branded "rude" by some viewers as she made a comment on Lucas Bish’s name . Some have also suggested she’s "too young" to be in the villa after she paired off with Italian Davide Sanclimenti, who’s eight years her senior.

It’s early days in the Love Island villa, and as we all know from previous series a lot can change quickly! Right now - couple Gemma Owen and Davide Sanclimenti are exploring a possible connection between them. However, not everybody is supportive of the pairing due to their age gap - Gemma is 19, while Davide is 27. One viewer tweeted, “All I can think about every time Gemma and Davide talk is the age gap and it’s hurting me”.
