Liam Llewellyn was seen walking away from the villa on Friday night, and it didn’t take long for him to find out who Gemma Owen’s celebrity father is.
Liam abruptly left the famous show after only five days, telling his fellow islanders that he “wasn’t 100% feeling it” and gave an emotional speech at the fire pit.
After entering the love pad, he confessed how astonished he was to learn that Gemma’s father is MichaelOwen as fans were granted a quick glance at his period following his exit.
He told Aftersun, ‘I can’t believe who that actually was. That’s mad.
‘I’m a United fan. I actually have one of his tops when he came to the club.
He continued, ‘That first night, we were chatting about football and her family. I was so close. I can’t believe I didn’t quite work it out.’
Liam returned to his hometown at Newport yesterday, and on Sunday night, he attended the spin-off program via a video link.
He expressed his gratitude for all of the wonderful words and support he’d already gotten from viewers.
He told Laura, ‘Yeah, it’s crazy. I didn’t expect the support. It’s been crazy.
‘It’s a big eye-opener for me how many people had my back.’
Love Island continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV.
