Love Island star Luca Bish unrecognisable before Turkey teeth transformation

Love Island star Luca Bish looks unrecognisable in throwback photos from before he underwent dental work in Turkey alongside his ex-girlfriend Sophie Floyd.

The Brighton fishmonger has been open about his reworked teeth on the ITV2 dating show, as he referenced them during the Snog, Marry, Pie challenge earlier this month.

As one of the boys to receive a pie to the face on multiple occasions, he told the girls to “watch the veneers” as they pummelled him with the whipped cream-covered pies.

A resurfaced video now shows Luca’s visit to a cosmetic clinic in Turkey in 2020, documenting his pearly white smile before and after receiving the custom-made porcelain fittings.

In the video, which also shows Luca with longer shoulder-length hair, he is seen talking with consultants at the Antalya clinic and picking out teeth shades.

The former couple’s whole experience at the clinic was filmed, showing them given scans on their teeth before the dentists decided on the adjustments to make.

At the end, the couple revealed their new smiles, with Luca revealing he had his top ten and bottom ten teeth refined.

He also said to the camera as they sat in the back of their taxi after the procedure: “We’re all done. I really don’t want to leave. The experience has been amazing, the staff have been amazing.

“I just don’t want to leave. I wish I could live here the way they treat you. So happy with the result.”

This comes as Luca has landed himself in hot water with ITV2 viewers after an explosive series of rows with Gemma Owen, who he is currently coupled up with on Love Island.

Luca’s family has responded after he stormed out of the villa and removed his microphone pack due to a clash with Gemma in the latest episode.

The Brighton fishmonger’s family swept to his defence after he pushed the 19-year-old international dressage rider during the Mile High-themed challenge on Tuesday evening.

Dressed as Cabin Crew, the girls prepped the boys for departure, gave a full safety briefing and offered refreshments before joining their chosen passenger for a private Mile High Club moment.

Luca became irritated when Gemma licked Adam Collard and Andrew Le Page during a saucy challenge and when she approached him he shoved her to the side.

Gemma, 19, spoke to Luca afterwards, saying: "You can sit here and say you're not in a mood, you are in a mood. When I came up to you in the challenge, you pushed me off."

Defending himself, Luca insisted it was "just banter" as she added: "It wasn't banter."

The moment sparked a flood of Twitter complaints from fans slamming the rash shove in a challenge, with many insisting the star should be removed from the villa.
