Love Island fans have praised Gemma Owen for how she has conducted herself in the villa, and called for her to become the new Prime Minister.

Despite Luca’s temper, Gemma remained collected and defended herself to him, arguing she had not entertained Billy’s flirtations and had done nothing wrong.

This has won her many fans from viewers at home, who took to Twitter to salute her and beg her to become the next UK leader.

One said: ‘Gemma would have been great in the leadership debate. She could be prime minister.’

Another agreed, writing: ‘She is the moment, Gemma Owen for prime minister’.

It comes after Luca’s own family took to Instagram Stories on his account on Monday to say they don’t condone his behaviour towards Gemma.

But, while his family have said that he would be ’embarrassed’ by his actions and will no doubt apologise, he doesn’t deserve the abuse he has been getting.

They said his behaviour is not reflective of the boy they ‘know and love at home’ but noted that his Love Island experience is an intense one.

They wrote: ‘I want to apologise on behalf of Luca for his insensitive reaction on last night’s episode. I know that when he watches it back, he will be embarrassed and deeply apologetic.

‘We as his family don’t condone his behaviour last might, but we do understand he is in an intense environment where his actions are heightened. Last night was not reflective of the boy we all know and love at home.

‘Please be aware death threats and nasty comments totally overstep the mark and something we has a family should not have to ensure, for this reason we have turned off the comments and messages.

‘For all those who have sent messages checking in on us, we would like to thank you very much and we see you.’

Luca was left seething after watching Gemma have a chat with Billy during Casa Amor, prompting him to question the strength of their relationship.

The second half of Movie Night saw a clip entitled Good Bill Hunting show Billy and Gemma chatting in the villa.

Billy quizzed Gemma on whether options were open when it came to pairing-up with another person despite her being in a couple with Luca.

Luca fumed as he watched the clip: ‘Just bring me a f**king bird in and watch. Trust me when I say, if she wants to f**king play games with me, I’ll play with it.’

He added: ‘I can’t be with someone like that, I’m sorry.’

Later that evening after the films aired, Luca pulled Gemma for a chat, saying: ‘You were entertaining it,’ to which Gemma replied: ‘No I wasn’t.’

Luca called Billy over to the fire pit to join them and asked: ‘Did you feel like she was flirting with you?’

Billy answered: ‘Yeah, it was just flirty banter,’ prompting Gemma to interject: ‘Did we have a flirty chat? Yes.’

Luca replied: ‘But just a minute ago you said you didn’t have a flirty chat, you literally said I wasn’t flirting.’

As the conversation continued, Gemma said: ‘I don’t think any lines have been crossed.’

However, Luca did not back down, insisting that the real source of his anger was not that he flirted but instead how he came out of the situation.

Anger: Viewers at home fumed watching the scenes, arguing Gemma had done nothing wrong and that Luca was displaying ‘gaslighting’ behaviour

He explained: ‘I’m not angry that you flirted. I’m angry that when I pulled you on the situation, you made me out to be an idiot.’

Viewers at home fumed watching the scenes, arguing Gemma had done nothing wrong and that Luca was displaying ‘gaslighting’ behaviour.

One fan said: ‘Luca gives abusive partner vibes, GEMMA GET ON YOUR HORSE AND GALLOP AWAY.’

Another agreed, saying: ‘Nah someone needs to sit me down and explain what exactly Luca has to be that fuming about? He should’ve left with Jacques.’

A third compared Luca to Joe Goldberg from the Netflix show You, saying: ‘Nah gemma needs to leave Luca. She could ask the male shopkeeper for her receipt and he’d say she was ‘entertaining’ him.’

Someone else echoed: ‘no bc luca is actually gaslighting gemma into believing that she did something wrong. she needs to drop him asap.’
