LUCA Bish's family have spoken out in his defence after he pushed Gemma Owen in Love Island. The fishmonger became irritated when his partner licked the other boys during a dancing challenge and stuck his arm out to stop her from kissing him.
Gemma, 19, confronted 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 insisting bosses should have stepped in and the star should be removed from the telly villa.
Following the episode, Luca's family admitted it had been difficult to watch as they shared a statement on Instagram and aired their view on the matter. .css-16e4f55{margin:16px 0;}.css-1czxmma{background-color:rgba(252,239,255,1);margin:16px 0;}.css-1tapza8{padding:20px 15px;}.css-1bk4jdt{padding:20px.
