23-year-old Luca opened up to Gemma in Thursday night's episode and confessed he loves her.
Luca revealed he had started to realise his true feelings for Michael Owen's daughter when she supported him after his close pal, and Gemma's ex, Jacques O'Neill quit the show.
Speaking to Gemma on the terrace, Luca said: "You know I've fallen for you and I've brought you to where we've had out first chat.
"It's gone a bit better since then but I've never been so sure in saying something because I've not seen a future with someone like I have with you and I think I'm in love with you."

"No, I am in love with you," he added.
Gemma giggled and held his hands as she said: "I love you too," as the pair hugged.
The couple were previously whisked away for a romantic date by the sea. As their date setup was revealed, Luca laughed: "I feel like I’m going to propose!"
During their date, Gemma revealed: "I love listening to your conversations with the lads because I’m sat there literally wetting myself. But when it comes to us two you are like soft."
Love Island continues tonight on ITV2 at 9pm.
