Love Island UK: Fans Slam Luca Bish’s Reaction To Gemma Owen Clip

screenrant.com:

Love Island UK season 8 fans are slamming OG Islander Luca Bish for his reaction to a clip of partner Gemma Owen. The clip, also featuring Casa Amor boy Billy Brown, was included in the dating series' infamous Movie Night. That challenge gives contestants the opportunity to see revealing clips of their fellow islanders from previous episodes. Watching a friendly interaction between Gemma and Billy set Luca off, to the dismay and confusion of viewers.

Luca was initially coupled up with Paige Thorne and also showed early interest in Tasha Ghouri. However, once he set his sights on Gemma, the 23-year-old refused to consider anyone else. This was most evident when Danica Bush chose to recouple with Luca.

However, Luca's reaction to Movie Night and attitude towards Gemma may put both his relationship and his chances of winning in jeopardy.
