Inside Love Island's Luca Bish's short-lived 'romance' with Saffron Barker

Love Island's tattooed hunk Luca Bish called out Gemma Owen after she said she was worried about feeling "trapped" and "married off" in their comfortable partnership in the villa.The 24 year old fishmonger asked the international dressage champion if the reason she was feeling that way was actually due to not receiving attention from new boys Jay Younger and Remi Lambert when they entered the reality dating show earlier in the week. Caught off-guard by Luca's frankness, Gemma, 19, admitted she'd been "very quiet" and even "screwed" herself over with the possibility of getting to know other boys as she was so happy with her partner.The awkward conversation unfolded while Turkish actress Ekin-Su, 27, was dealing with her own secret rendezvous and drama between 27 year old Davide Sanclimenti and Scottish investment banker Jay, 28.
