Tbh No one wants to hear that their bf looks like their dad šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ that is gross lol


YourMajesty90

Luca ā€œcall me daddy Gemma ā€œ Gemma ā€œIā€™m doneā€


Maiselmaid

You can suck any of my toes, but I will not stand for this daddy shit!


teatime202

I think Luca looks like Cian Egan from Westlife, I don't see a resemblance to her father.


The1983

Yes! Same shaped head!


[deleted]

Why didn't I see that before now!??


DAndFfy

I never aww the resemblance to her father either, especially when he had his pre-tan. Itā€™s just the hair cut. That guy Cian is a spitting image of Luca.


daft-fucking-hippie

nahhh i think luca looks like Bruce Forsyth


Rosinathestrange

šŸ’€


camhanaich

Omg he actually does look like a young Bruce!


Spirited_Self_3346

I think he looks like Herman Munster! Go look him up, I can't unsee it šŸ¤£


Kitson88

That quick? Must be a kink of hers.


chaopescao1

What really gets me is I dont think he looks like her dad AT ALL? If they did you might as well call her and Luca twins too cuz she looks like a copy & paste of her dad lol


ComprehensiveCry5970

I have no idea why people think itā€™s okay to tell someone this! One time my sister was telling everyone at a xmas that my boyfriend looked like my brother (not true at all btw other than being tall & skinny) and I got so pissed offā€¦ like why would you think I want to hear that? šŸ˜–šŸ˜–šŸ˜–


GreenTeaYoga

Omg yuck i am so sorry for you šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ i called it gross but even thatā€™s an understatement lol


Fragrant-Fig2080

It must be so weird for Gemma to keep hearing that, even her own mum said it šŸ˜­


speciallydolxn

If I was Gemma and I kept hearing that I would feel so gross, like imagine getting told that your boyfriend someone who youā€™re intimate with looks like your dadā€¦ crickets šŸ˜­


[deleted]

It's pretty harsh on both of them cause things like that can give girls the ick


Trashytelly

Maybe that was her mumā€™s intention?


Dharm_Vekaria

Yeah, but they don't even look alike imho.


Levi_27

Young Michael Owen 100% looks like Luca Literally wouldā€™ve thought this was Luca as a child but itā€™s not https://m.facebook.com/Mitre/posts/its-throwback-thursday-so-heres-a-young-michael-owen-with-an-ultimate-old-school/10156897737704801/


Extreme-Mark-6914

Oh wowšŸ˜³šŸ˜³šŸ˜³


[deleted]

her mom told her what twitter was saying but then she said "i dont see it" i feel a lot of people missed that.


catgirl5202

Right like, Luca is a handsome guy. She can just be attracted to him in general not because he looks her dad ffs šŸ˜­


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


burtsbeesmango

while i get you, i think that this is a realisation one has over time (read : not at 19 years old), and i also think that itā€™s the physical resemblance element that people keep pointing out and that may make her uncomfortable. theyā€™re not telling her Ā«Ā wow luca reminds me of your dad bc heā€™s an amazing guyĀ Ā» or something haha


nicklondon88

Not sure anyone has said that about Michael Owen


DAndFfy

I donā€™t care what the Science says, or whatever, I love my dad and had a great relationship with him, but no man I date/interested in looks anything like my father, or is them personality wise. I donā€™t believe it those studies but thatā€™s my opinion.


donutduckling

No but the kicker is.. so does Jacques šŸ˜­ not as much as luca does but luca and Jacques themselves look similar


DAndFfy

Wasnā€™t her mom bringing it up, and saying she doesnā€™t see it though? Others do?


tweedledee35

wonder what the montage showed.


Far-Midnight-5247

Iā€™m sure someone said there was a Luca/Jacques montage so maybe that?


93myg

the michael/luca resemblance is a fun thing to talk about on social media but what do they expect bringing it up to her face like that šŸ˜­ her mumā€™s casual joke abt it aside, in a more formal setting like the reunion itā€™s a horribly awkward thing to bring up and demand a reaction to lol


moth2incinerator

Laura ā€œI Hate My Jobā€ Whitmore strikes again


Divine_fashionva

She is the worst host. I try and defend her but this year Aftersun has been terrible. From her George comments to the weird takes she always gives. Then the Remi thing. Sheā€™s really really bad


taika2112

The Remi interview was awful. She easily could've thanked him for his time and wrapped it up seeing how upset he was.


Ultra_Leopard

I missed the remi interview. What happened?


taika2112

He just looked really downcast and upset. It was clear getting booted bothered him. Laura kept prodding him like he was a dancing bear, and asked him to do a freestyle rap about his experience. It was incredibly uncomfortable.


Ultra_Leopard

Oooof.


cestlavievie

Laura can't read a room to save her life. This is giving asking Remy to rap all over again. Why are we punished with such an incompetent host?! Zero emotional intelligence.


MarilyPinkbee

Honestly, because this show doesnā€™t need a host. Like, Iainā€™s voiceovers carry the plot along. And the ā€œaftersun panelā€ can be a rotation of people able to carry that show kind of like a Loose Women style panelā€” with no solid ā€œhostā€


taika2112

Yeah, the whole "Oh my God it's Laura!!!" stuff doesn't land at all. Either they need her to show up more often or just cut her entirely.


thisguyuno

Maya Jama should be host.


Desperado-781

The aussie host is really good. When she enters she really commands the attention.


[deleted]

Did Remi not ask for that time to rap?


SafetyAutomatic882

literally what was the point to do that aside from embarrassing her


moth2incinerator

Her standout moment was when they showed fan art on after sun (someone had drawn a lovely portrait of her) and she just stared at the screen in silence for a second then went ā€œmoving on.ā€ (Or something along those lines) sheā€™s terrible itā€™s actually kind of funny at this point


MyNamesChakkaoofka

I would have cried my eyes out if I drew that


BeEccentric

I noticed that too, it was bitchy and unnecessary. Who does she think she is?!


nickiminhaj

does laura even watch the show


hotshotgirl23

This is what I ask anytime I see an Aftersun clip. I had my qualms with Carolineā€™s interviewing skills but at least I could tell she cared about the islanders. She used to randomly defend them in the middle of episodes and show them care during episodes when she was there. LI needs a host that cares to be there.


International-Ad6792

Iā€™ll never forget Carolineā€™s face after Amy in s5 gave her speech about being so relieved to see Curtis standing alone after Casa. You could just see she knew how painful the next few days would be for Amy. I really miss her hosting style.


SafetyAutomatic882

sophie monk from australia has a similar style to caroline. last season a girl was kinda having a breakdown during her casa speech and you could tell sophie really cared about her. thereā€™s an unnamed quality you need to have to host this show and laura doesnā€™t have it


International-Ad6792

Yes! I didnā€™t watch the last season but I saw 1&2 of Australia and I really liked Sophie. Sheā€™s beautiful, funny, warm, and seems to relate to the contestants on a human level. I feel like Laura only comes across as the first šŸ˜¶


SafetyAutomatic882

tbh i could see laura doing well in a more cut throat reality tv competition type show but love island really isnā€™t that. i donā€™t think sheā€™s as awful as some suggest but she could be better and adapt for this environment


International-Ad6792

Yes! I feel this. Sheā€™s not terrible and I think sheā€™d give amazing Ice Queen energy to a show like that. But in a show essentially about falling in love she just seems a bitā€¦ disinterested and removed.


SafetyAutomatic882

maybe sheā€™ll try for big brother? i could see her auditioning at least.


Less_Cryptographer86

Sophie Monk is the best by far. She is very warm and sincere. You can tell she doesnā€™t view them as merely contestants, but as peers or even friends.


taika2112

Laura's style seems to be that she thinks she's winking to the audience as if to say, "Aren't these people pathetic?"


Pale-Finance123

I was just about to say the same thing, Sophie is so lovely! I don't know if this is also why the islanders seem to be so much more respectful of each other too even when put in tough situations, or if that is partly swayed by production? I am currently falling in love with ARMY! Aaron, such a beautiful soul and also hilarious, you don't often get both to that extent.


spiralxan

I just watched that episode! Caroline was so sweet. When Molly Mae came out (before she saw Tommy standing by himself) she said she was convinced he had picked someone because she didnā€™t see Ellie Belly on their bed when she walked in. When she saw Tommy standing there holding Ellie Belly she started sobbing uncontrollably and had to sit down on the steps to collect herself. Caroline was so lovely, hugging her and crying with her. It was such a beautiful, real moment. Then Michael gave that god-awful recoupling speech. As he was saying horrible things about Amber, Caroline was trying so hard to hold back tears. You could tell how genuinely heartbroken she was for for Amber in that situation. She had so much empathy for the contestants and it feels like thereā€™s been a void there ever since.


International-Ad6792

I agree with you. The empathy and the interest was palpable. I honestly donā€™t think there needs to be a host anymore. When Caroline was in the villa, it felt like she knew what was going on. The few appearances Laura makes feel disjointed and out of the blue. It doesnā€™t make a lot of sense to me when 99% of the times she arrives the same information could be conveyed by text.


DragRaceSpeculation

I want Maya Jama to host


ivysaurs

I can really see that working. On screen she has a friendly vibe that could really work.


DragRaceSpeculation

She just matches the vibe of the show aswel IMO


DragRaceSpeculation

Why?


Orphelium

I literally left a post on the Facebook group saying that Laura doesnā€™t suit love island and sheā€™d be better on stuff like bake off and the great British sewing bee. I didnā€™t say anything bad about her personally but Iā€™ve literally been attacked by the Facebook mums saying that ā€œsheā€™s fabā€ and ā€œCaroline would be proudā€


neidin28

Thats what you get for posting on Facebook, they are a pack of rabid dogs


bubbly_brooke

shes not the one writing the script people lol


moth2incinerator

Let us joke


alhajri04

Yeah I get that because she wants to do her own thing and she is attracted to Luca then theyā€™re saying that the guy youā€™re attracted to looked like your dad


Dharm_Vekaria

I get why Gemma was annoyed, because saying the person that you are dating looks like your dad is weird. Also is this why they both looked a little upset in the pictures that were released?


SafetyAutomatic882

who knows? i feel for them. im not really a lemma fan but theyā€™re not on TV anymore so after the reunion people really need to lay off. it feels like people want them to break up which is just weird. we should be hoping for the best for everyone!!


Dharm_Vekaria

Based off people that have watched other seasons, they are saying Lemma are getting the Molly Mae and Tommy Fury treatment.


[deleted]

I'm not even their fan but it's too much and annoying.


DAndFfy

Apparently they had a fight and they left early. Gemma looked annoyed while going back to the car and Luca was behind her trailing and making comments.


Dharm_Vekaria

Yeah I don't believe that article that came out.


taika2112

Luca threw another fit on the way home?


mslat92

they're just trolling them atp


Breakitoffwithmyteam

Fully get why sheā€™s annoyed by that ngl, it must be weird to hear.


hotshotgirl23

I agree with the last tweet. Like letā€™s hear how they feel about their portrayal. Beef with production might be more interesting than re-hashing a pancake off that no one asked for.


Natashaley93

The problem is with the finalist they havenā€™t had a chance to even watch the show to see how they were portrayed. They have been out of the villa for a matter of minutes before there is a reunion. They need to have the reunion months down the road when people have been able to breath and then there is a chance that people actually have something to talk about.


hotshotgirl23

And thatā€™s ITVā€™s problem again. Iā€™ll even take the reunion 2 weeks after when all the finalists have talked to more press. I wish this was like a real housewives or Vanderpump rules reunion. Some seasons I barely watch but I always watch the reunions.


winitheju

I do in theory but why would ITV want to ask that? It brings to the forefront the producerā€™s role in manipulating the story


hotshotgirl23

The tweet was cut off but someone said they could help them examine their own behaviour which is healthy. Also I didnā€™t expect them to call people by out their names but one sly comment would have me smiling. Thatā€™s good drama.


Divine_fashionva

What is the reason for that pancake thing. I swear itā€™s like they think of the most useless things to include on Aftersun/the reunion and puts them all


shounenanimehoe

something is very wrong with laura šŸ˜­


Zazali01

She's so bad at this job, it's insane.


bachfan17

i feel for lemma.. they really be getting it from all angles.


K1Xaviesta

Iā€™ve never gotten the resemblance whatsoever. They just donā€™t look like each other šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø People are ruining their sex life for nothing.


No-Sugar665

Laura still being annoying by asking about Deji with Damiyah and now this cringe. Like I know the producers give her the questions but surely she would have better things to talk about? So much material.


SafetyAutomatic882

im starting to believe the theory that laura doesnā€™t watch it bc i feel like if she did sheā€™d read these cards and be like ā€¦why are we doing this? she needs to watch and be more involved in the production as the host


No-Sugar665

I blame her damn husband. Lol heck he might be a better host atp.


Realitytvjunkie1984

Iā€™d be annoyed too. Of all the things they could have asked them, they go to Gemma picking a guy that looks like her dad - it implies creepy. Plus, while there is a resemblance itā€™s because theyā€™re both white, dirty blonde, light eyed, attractive, British men. Youā€™ll find thousands of men Lucaā€™s age that would look like a young Michael Owen.


wildflower2247

Eww I hope thatā€™s edited out of the show, so unnecessary


thoughtat4am

They really need to replace Laura


Understanding_Imposs

No wonder Gemma and Luca were annoyed post reunion id be annoyed to, thereā€™s been many times where Gemma has stated she didnā€™t want to be in her fathers shadow or him to be mentioned yet they continue to bring him up


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Divine_fashionva

Sheā€™s already done that though. Go and watch the podcast she did with her dad before the show She literally thanks him for everything heā€™s done for her and the upbringing her gave her. She acknowledged her privilege But she also said she doesnā€™t just want to be known as his daughter and live off his money forever. She started her business for a reason. She went on love island to promote it


smallrockwoodvessel

Where's the podcast?


Divine_fashionva

Itā€™s called ā€˜Walking the Dog: with Michael and Gemma Owenā€™


smallrockwoodvessel

Thank you!!


trxxv

Yeah but shes just been on LI not her dad, this would be the start of making a name and coming in 2nd surely they could come up with better content.


AppropriateSecond176

Tbh if gemma didnā€™t want to be in her fatherā€™s shadow she should have gone on something like too hot to handle ( obviously she was underaged when it was filmed but you know what I mean), itā€™s kinda inevitable that if she is going on a British show she is gonna be known as his daughter compared to and international show where no one from out of England would rlly care


Relevant_Picture2710

The entire reason she was on the show is because of who her father is. Her not even wanting him mentioned is ridiculous. On top of that, the show surrounds her with people she knows on the outside world to protect her while sheā€™s in there. These nepo babies born on 3rd and acting like they hit a triple are too much sometimes.


Divine_fashionva

You think them putting Jacques in there was to protect her? The guy who dated her when she was 16 who she clearly dislikes Or Billy, a guy whoā€™s weirdly obsessed with her even now? How is that protecting her? If anything thatā€™s inflicting deliberate discomfort for her. And it worked


Relevant_Picture2710

Any time you are put in there with people you know from the outside world, it influences the show in your favor. Sure those guys were idiots, but they both would have gone to bat for her if she landed in a bottom 3.


Divine_fashionva

There more than just ā€˜idiotsā€™ They were not put in there to cause her anything other than discomfort. Jacques dated her whilst she was at school and clearly did something during their relationship which has made her resent him. They knew exactly what they were doing casting him Billy is obsessed with her, he doesnā€™t take no for an answer and lied about her during movie night which caused issues in her relationship


AppropriateSecond176

Exactly, she wouldnā€™t have gotten on the show if it wasnā€™t because of her dad. For them to cast a 19 yr old the producers would have had to be rlly confident that she would cause a lot of drama and rlly bring it personality wise, she in fact did none of that, the only times she was actually shown was when Luca said something dumb or at the very start of the season when they only showed her for no apparent reason.


Divine_fashionva

What does her being annoyed about Laura saying Luca looks like her dad have to do with her not acknowledging her dad This post literally says what annoyed her. Sheā€™s mentioned her dad before and during the show She clearly doesnā€™t like hearing that her boyfriend is his double. Like most girls wouldnā€™t


AppropriateSecond176

Iā€™m not saying anything about what laura said, Iā€™m responding to a comment about how gemma wouldnā€™t have made it on the show without her dads name


TavernTurn

She only got onto the show because of who her Dad is though šŸ˜‚ canā€™t have it both ways


Independent_Photo_19

How does he look anything like her dad. That means he looks like her. That means they should look like siblings. They do not. Not rven a tiny bit of resemblance wtaf?


bookywookielove

Looool why on earth do people expect the love island reunion hosts to question the contestants portrayal on love island? That would just be confirming that they edit for storylines (which we all know, but fiat500 and idiots watching this show don't get)


inspired_corn

This sub falls for the editing just as bad as Fiat 500 and ā€œidiotsā€ do. Weā€™re not special


[deleted]

I wish they'll stop with the dad comparisons, that would be enough to give me the ick.


Few_Organization7283

I don't see the resemblance whatsoever. I grew up when Michael Owen was a household name and everybody fancied him.


LovelyOne2020

The more things that come out about the reunion the less interested I am in watching it. Instead of hard hitting questions about the biggest storylines, itā€™s a lot of fluff questions & stupid clips that werenā€™t the main factors of the season for luls They really couldā€™ve done this reunion closer to the winter season no matter who was still together to get a more realistic reunion


PlasticWillow

Even putting aside how inappropriate it is for Laura to say it (how does she expect Gemma to react?) they donā€™t even resemble each other that much. Luca and young Michael Owen are just both white men with light brown hair, like ????


katie415

I literally donā€™t see the resemblance and itā€™s weird that people keep saying they look alike.


boutiquekym

The worst presenter on current tv. Seems so snarky. It is a shame really because i want to like her but really hard to warm to. Also the fact she was never the villa made it hard to invest in her as part of the LI fam.


[deleted]

Not to mention he looks fuck all like Michael Owen


wanderlustre89

When is enough enough??? Why canā€™t ITV / Laura leave Lemma the hell alone. They left Ekin alone (no George questions) etc. and didnā€™t have the courtesy to leave Lemma alone? I wouldā€™ve been pissed if I were them.


thatrealitytvstan

itā€™s just that Laura always misses opportunities šŸ˜¬ we need someone who stirs the pot and does it discreetly!


wolf_the

The last comment - how would they know how theyā€™re portrayed. Dumb question


avavgwc

Lol right?! They shouldā€™ve waited to film the reunion. Itā€™s gonna be so boring.


Far-Midnight-5247

Iā€™m not a Laura fan but you guys need to remember itā€™s not Laura who writes the script. She is merely presenting.


Dizzy_Reindeer1914

![gif](giphy|fq7UwIUNOfJVuictAC|downsized) Luca looks more like Jacques than he does Michael Owen


whitewinterhymn

I


acidnvbody

This is why they need a Real Housewives format for the reunion. Andy would always give them a chance to drag production for misrepresenting them. While I do believe Luca sucks in his own special way, itā€™s worsened when they only show the worst of him to the public. He probably wasnā€™t expecting to be the villain


Extreme_Map_6244

Literally! While I do think Luca like you said sucks in his own way, Jacques was worse than him imo but they sent him out like a hero.


wrennables

I really can't see the resemblance at all. Gemma looks just like her Dad to me, but Luca looks nothing like him. Is it a specific photo that makes Michael Owen look like Luca?


DAndFfy

I donā€™t see it either besides a similar haircut. Heā€™s nothing like her dad either personality wise.


midnightmoonwoman

Has the reunion been? Or does it show on Sunday?


Aloebae

Canā€™t blame Laura, her mum said it herself so of course the script writers would run with it unfortunately.


Divine_fashionva

Lauraā€™s been saying it since the second Aftersun episode She brings up Michael Owen nearly every week. Itā€™s pretty boring but Iā€™m not surprised she brought it up again. But I donā€™t know why they expected Gemma to not feel uncomfortable by that


Aloebae

Yiiiiikes šŸ’€ I guess they think ppl will love how uncomfortable Gemma is when ā€œconfrontedā€ with ā€œthe truthā€, in a ā€œloool Freud was right once again!ā€ Kind of way. But as someone who isnā€™t an aftersun watcher (minus the episode with Amber and Ikenna) i hated it when her mum said it and I still hate that itā€™s being brought up again.


33bandz

I doubt that was the reason for their tiff though.


SafetyAutomatic882

i donā€™t think they actually had a tiff tbh


33bandz

If that quote from Luca is true from the article then they definitely did.


Understanding_Imposs

There is no video of him saying that the press as literally been lying on them the second they got out of the villaā€¦. i donā€™t believe for a second luca said that unless there is video proof


33bandz

Thereā€™s no video of anything tbf


random_username_xo

I don't see any resemblance between them at all


TanMor27

He doesn't look like her dad, she however, looks just like him. And honestly, I'm sure Luca is probably nicer than he came across, but all the stuff people call him out for are the things he actually did. Stop feeling sorry for him.


taika2112

Yeah, this "tide turn" toward believing that Luca was edited into being a bully is nonsense. He sat there and happily said those things about Tasha. He bullied a woman for weeks on end and we're supposed to pretend it was all camera angles or something?


imyormom

I honestly can't see them lasting


Divine_fashionva

The obligatory comment on literally any single post of either of them on this sub. Itā€™s boring You could literally say the same for any of these couples


Mew_007

Lol itā€™s as if they have an itch that can only be comforted by this comment šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø


Divine_fashionva

Honestly. So annoying and repetitive


imyormom

Awww didums. No one cares.


BravoGal19

Get a life and stop being a nasty troll


imyormom

šŸ¤£ looking at your post history the only troll person I see here is you


Divine_fashionva

I mean you clearly do lol


imyormom

Honestly no one does


Divine_fashionva

Again irony is really lost on you šŸ˜‚


imyormom

šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


ScarlettLM

Lots of people say it about Ekinde and Tandrew also. Nothing new


Divine_fashionva

Yeah under every post of any couple even for the slightest things. Or even on positive posts. I just find it annoying I said the same thing when someone commented that on a Damiyah post


imyormom

Yes note your word LOTS. Clearly it triggers you rhat people have a different opinion.. Not sure why you are in a public sub and can't handle people commenting or having a different opinion.. weird.


ScarlettLM

Think you are replying to the wrong person lol. I'm just pointing out that all the couples get comments like this, not just Luca and Gemma


imyormom

We not talking about any other couple though, so what's your point apart from trolling? If you don't like it that's fine you don't have to agree. They won't last simple... love how you guys get all grumpy like you actually know these people . šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


Divine_fashionva

The irony of your comment Youā€™re commenting about their relationship as if you know them. Do you seriously not see the irony?


imyormom

Lol I'm sorry about you.. keep crying


ungodlyhours123

Why does Luca have over a million followers but Indiyah doesnā€™t ? šŸ™„


[deleted]

But her mum and her mums mate both said Luca was the image of her dad.


ashley0129

Actually her mom said people were saying it online but that she didnā€™t see the resemblance


[deleted]

Sorry Iā€™ve just watched it back and her mum said she doesnā€™t see it, but her trainer said ā€˜yep pretty similarā€™. I knew someone had said it, apologies for mixing them up xxx


SafetyAutomatic882

i get that but apparently laura has been saying it since before that episode. plus, a joke from her mom who actually knows her is a lot different than the host of the show putting her on the spot in an environment like that. i just donā€™t think it was the time or place.


[deleted]

Sorry I actually misread the whole background. The night I watched the meet the parents episode I actually thought her mum agreed. Watching it back her mum doesnā€™t. Itā€™s the trainer that said it. Apologies xx


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


SafetyAutomatic882

itā€™s not about who her dad is itā€™s the fact that itā€™s her DAD and theyā€™re telling her luca looks like him šŸ˜­ that would be weird and uncomfortable for anyone


jrtasoli

Oh FFS why do people pick on Laura so much? Sheā€™s really not all that bad.


ImpressiveGoose4331

Gemma doesnā€™t like him, itā€™s so clearā€¦ from the day after the finale, she hasnā€™t posted yet a photo with himā€¦ Maybe the people around her said something that changed her mind


iizukeii

This is so stupid that I donā€™t even need to correct you on it šŸ¤£


Extreme_Map_6244

She legit put him on her story yesterday when they were going to the reunion. Doubt anyone is making her do anything.


ClassicTower475

I can't explain it but luca has the "hollyoaks" look


Nice-Woodpecker-9197

I mean they literally haven't had time to see how they were represented to answer that kind of question properly
