Inside glamorous lives of celebrity children as Michael Owen’s daughter Gemma debuts on Love Island
Love Island star Gemma Owen may have a famous dad but she’s enjoying the spotlight in her own right after making her debut on the dating series. It’s been three days since the 19-year-old first appeared on the ITV2 dating programme but she’s already got the nation talking about everything from her young age to her sizzling romance with Italian stallion Davide Sanclimeti. Gemma, a Team GB dressage champion, is yet to name-drop her footballing legend father, Michael Owen, in the villa as her fellow islanders are still seemingly unaware of her famous lineage, but she’s proudly flying the flag for celebrity spawn. Her glamorous lifestyle is only set to get better thanks to her Love Island stint, which typically opens doors for brand deals and endorsements, but Gemma isn’t the only child of a celebrity to be enjoying the soft life. Here are some others who are carving names for themselves outside of their famous parents’ shadow… Tia Lineker is the daughter of club mogul Wayne Lineker, the brother of footballing legend Gary Lineker. She is the youngest of Wayne’s four children, with the Celebs Go Dating star also a dad to sons Duane, Sean and Freddie. The 22-year-old has been hard at work for the past few years building her brand as a model and social media influencer. She boasts 521,000 Instagram followers and has modelled for the likes of PrettyLittleThing, I Saw It First, Miss Pap and Motel Rocks. The fashionista also owns two fashion companies – sportswear brand Sport Luxe and hat company Palm Halt. Coincidentally, Tia herself was tipped to star on Love Island in 2021 but she was revealed to be in a relationship with boyfriend Harry.
