ITV Love Island fans think they've figured out reason for Gemma and Luca's row after tease

Love Island fans think they know why Gemma Owen and Luca Bish suffer their first row after it was teased at the end of Monday night's episode (June 13). Following the surprise first dumping of the series, the show's narrator Iain Stirling teased there was "trouble in paradise".

The pair were seen squabbling in a very short clip which comes just days after 19-year-old Gemma's ex, rugby player Jacques O'Neill, made a bombshell arrival in the Mallorcan villa used by the ITV2 dating show.

In the brief moment flashed on-screen during the closing moments of last night's episode, the equestrian star and business owner appeared to be frustrated at Luca' 22, as she apologised for something.

The preview starts with Gemma saying: "I am not..." before stopping as an annoyed Luca rolls his eyes. The teen, who is the daughter of former footballer Michael Owen, then fires: "Don't roll your eyes at me and be a p***k. It was a genuine mistake, I'm sorry. There's nothing more to it."

Fans of the ITV2 dating show was left on tenterhooks but it was noted that the pair were still in the same clothes from the latest re-coupling suggesting the drama kicked off once Afia Tonkmor, 25, leave the villa. And they think they know why they're arguing.

@itsjoepro tweeted: "I'm calling it now, Gemma accidentally calls Luca Jacques #LoveIsland." @Rushe_C commented: "Gemma definitely called Luca by the wrong name, didn’t she? #LoveIsland." @LUN4A4A echoed: "#LoveIsland I am 10000% sure gemma called luca by her ex's name."

@DanielJFalconer added: "I really hope Gemma calls Luca, Jacques, because that is top tier content. #LoveIsland." But @dasbutnotsad also suggested: "Feel like jaques spilt the tea on gemma’s dad to the boys and that’s why luca is all of a sudden moving weird #LoveIsland," referring to the fact Gemma is still yet to tell her fellow Islanders that she's the daughter of former footballer Michael Owen.

Jacques made his entrance during Sunday night's show, not long after Gemma and Luca decided to spend more time together. Fishmonger Luca, 22, appeared a bit irked by the 23-year-old sportsman's arrival - particularly when Gemma and her ex headed for a chat.

Jacques told Gemma: "I still care for you so I'm going to be looking out for you, I still want the best for you." To which Gemma responded: "I want the best for you too, it's just a weird situation. I was shocked when I saw you, I was like, 'S**t'.

Jacques later revealed that he does "like" Luca, with Gemma saying: "You are pretty similar." To which he joked: "That's probably why you like him." Meanwhile, Luca watched on and complained: "I'm getting fed up, man. Things are winding me up and it's just getting f*****g weird now. My decision is set in stone, so I don't really know what I'd do if anything happened. But to be honest, I don't know, I just feel drained."
