Love Island’s Gemma Owen warns suitors it will take a while for ‘guard to come down’

OHMYGOSSIP — Gemma Owen has warned potential suitors it will take “a while” for her “guard to come down”.
The 19-year-old star – the daughter of former England striker father Michael Owen – admits she is “fiery” and “quite protective”, but she doesn’t “fall in love quickly”.
Asked how her family and friends would describe her, she said: “I think they would say I’m very honest and a bit stubborn, straight up and a bit fiery. I can be quite protective.
“When you get to know me, I’m quite fun but it just takes a while for that guard to come down.
“They would say that I can take the mick out of myself quite easily!”
The international dressage rider and business owner has also vowed to be “very competitive” on ‘Love Island’, but insists when it comes to relationships she is not planning to “mess up something for someone” on the ITV2 dating show if they are in a “proper” romance.
When asked how competitive she is, Gemma said: “Sport has always been a big thing for me and my family. My dad was a professional football player.
“I’ve competed for Great Britain in dressage since I was 11 years old. I’ve travelled all across Europe competing in big arenas in big competitions.
“I would say I’m very competitive. [When it comes to relationships] I will always go for what I want. But at the same
time, I’m not going to mess up something for someone who is in a proper relationship or get in the way of a couple if they have a genuine connection.
“I wouldn’t do anything to another girl that I wouldn’t be happy with them doing to me.”
‘Love Island’ starts at 9pm Monday 6th June on ITV2, ITV Hub, Virgin Media Two and Virgin Media Player. Episodes are available the following morning on BritBox.
