Love Island's Gemma Owen signs six-figure deal with PrettyLittleThing

Love Island star Gemma Owen has signed a very lucrative six-figure deal with fashion retailer PrettyLittleThing.

The 19-year-old daughter of footballer Michael Owen is the first Love Island star since Molly-Mae Hague to sign with the fast fashion company.

She was handpicked by the founder Umar Kamani, 34, and his team.

Gemma, who came second in the final with Luca Bish, said: "This really is a dream come true for me."

"I wore PrettyLittleThing throughout my time on the show and now being announced as one of their newest ambassadors alongside some incredible talent including Love Island alumni is really special."

She continued: "The team has been amazing and I'm excited to get to work and start designing some collections for you all."

Meanwhile, the founder gushed over the star and called her 'smart, confident, ambitious and has a much loved, relatable style.'

It comes two weeks after it was reported that Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu is set to make over £1million after signing a deal with a fashion label.

The 27-year-old signed a seven-figure deal after being “inundated with offers” after winning the ITV show alongside Davide Sanclimenti.

She landed a brand deal with fashion brand Oh Polly in a deal insiders called a “perfect fit”.

A source close to the Turkish soap star told the outlet that Ekin is “ecstatic” after having the “week of her dreams” negotiating deals.

Several days later, Ekin-Su and Davide appeared on BBC's Big Breakfast with AJ Odudu and Mo Gilligan to share huge news.

The lovebirds are set to spend even more time side by side and will travel around Europe and cook for each other in a new TV show.

Announcing the news on the Channel 4 show, Davide declared: "Yes I can tell you this.

"We are going on a road trip to Italy and Turkey, for one week in Italy and one week in Turkey. We are going to be on ITV2 and it’s going to be like our own programme."

Ekin-Su added: "It’ll be all real fighting, he’ll be cooking for me, I’ll be cooking for him," she told the hosts. It’ll be two cultures, meeting families.

"I have already been shouting at Davide everyday!"

An ITV spokesperson confirmed the news but no further details have been unveiled.
