LOVE Island’s Gemma Owen did a major dig at her so-called “best friend” tonight, while Adam Collard caused turmoil in the villa.
The 19-year-old dressage champion was quick to make a hateful comment about Ekin-Su Culculoglu27, after she offered to give Adam a tour of the villa.

As the Turkish actress leads the Newcastle around the complex, Gemma joked that Ekin-Su should always be the new boy’s “number one girl”.
The comment shocked viewers at home, as it rather seemed as if the two women had grown closer in recent weeks.
But as she spoke to the other girls, she criticized her so-called boyfriend for always being the first one to pounce on every new guy who came in.
This didn’t go unnoticed by fans, with one saying, “I thought Ekin and Gem were friends?”
While another commented: “Gemma threw Ekin under the bus then didn’t she!”
Adam made quite an impression in the villa tonight, making moves on Gemma and Paige Thorne†
The Welsh paramedic even hinted that she might be interested, suggesting she could take revenge on Jacques O’Neill for kissing another girl on the show’s Casa Amor stage.
But in a sneak peek from tomorrow night, it looks like Adam’s interest in Paige will fade cause quite a stir in the villa†
Fans were shown a short clip from the next episode where Jacques started talking about Adam and yelled, “Who the f***’s huh?
“Just another guy who’s been on the show? He’s not f***ing anything, mate.”
It came when Gemma said to her ex, “Oh, he was just butchering you,” causing Jacques to jump to his feet.
Meanwhile, some viewers also pointed out that there was a good reason Gemma may not have recognized Adam just as quickly as the others when he entered the villa.
As one viewer put it, “Gemma was 15 when Adam Collard was on Love Island.”

Another joked: “Gemma has no idea who Adam Collard is. She had to go to bed at 9pm when season 4 started.”
A third tweeted: “The last time Adam Collard was in the villa, Gemma was 15.”
Gemma, who is now 19, reacted in a matter-of-fact manner when the former Love Island star came in.
The girls cheered, “He looks like Adam Collard,” but she simply replied, “That’s because he is.”
The Newcastle personal trainer appeared in the 2018 series, but many were shocked that he is still relatively young.
Many thought he should be in his 40s by now, given the time that has passed since he was last on the show.
However, he is not even the oldest person in the Love Island villa this year – only 26 years old.
