But Gemma Owen and Luca Bish put on a united front on Friday, as the 19-year-old dressage champ shared a loved up post from the filming to Instagram.

Meanwhile, Luca went for a pair of black trousers and a complementing shirt, adding Christian Louboutin trainers.

While the first shot showed the new couple beam at the camera, Luca laughed as he grabbed Gemma’s leg in the second, while the beauty pouted and fell into his arms.

And further solidifying that the couple are very much ‘on’, the Brighton native tagged Gemma in an Instagram Story on Friday evening, as he attempted to sell her on his home city.

‘Am I selling Brighton to you yet @gemowen_1?’, quipped Luca as he posted a video of horses.

It marks the first photo shared of the couple together on Gemma’s account in a week, after fans spotted an apparent snub towards Luca by her family.

The dressage rider’s account handlers have avoided sharing any mention or photos of the fishmonger in the run up to the final.

And following Gemma and Luca’s second-place finish, Luca’s family were quick to congratulate the couple, posting a snap of them together with a gushing caption.

It read: ‘Thank you SO much from the bottom of our hearts for all of the support you’ve shown this gorgeous couple. So excited to continue watching your journey from the outside. You really did win by finding each other.’

This was in stark contrast to Gemma’s Instagram, which noticeably only posted solo snaps of the brunette beauty in the lead-up and following the final, with beau Luca noticeably absent.

Sharing a solo snap of Gemma clad in a nude ruched gown, her loved ones penned the caption: ‘Words can’t describe how proud we all are of Gemma.

Notice something? While each of the Love Island’s female finalists’ social media accounts featured a tribute to their couple, Gemma’s was simply a solo snap

‘She has shown the nation how mature, honest and classy she truly is. From the bottom of our hearts thank you for all the love and support…Gemma is going to be SO overwhelmed.

‘We are passing this back to Gemma now… We have loved running her account and being part of her @loveisland journey. We can’t wait for what the future holds.’

Eagle-eyed fans at home were quick to notice this, and took to Twitter to suggest that Gemma’s family were not overly fond of Luca and that they were doing ‘damage control’ to protect Gemma’s brand.

Despite Gemma finally sharing a snap of Luca, it seems there is still trouble in paradise after the couple got into an argument on Thursday night.

Luca admitted to a squabble at the Love Island reunion while they headed home from Elstree Studios, both looking sombre as they were snapped in the car.

Across Sunday and Monday, viewers were able to vote for their favourite couple to be crowned as winners and go home with the £50,000 cash prize – which for the first time ever wasn’t offered as a ‘split or steal’ deal.

And final voting figures released by ITV have revealed that fan favourites Ekin-Su and Davide, both 27, secured a staggering 63.69 per cent of the public vote.

They won the ITV2 dating contest by a landslide as runners-up Gemma and Luca secured just 14.47 per cent of the viewers’ final votes.

Gemma and Luca followed behind as runners-up, while Indiyah and Dami came in third place and Tasha and Andrew were fourth.

After Ekin-Su and Davide’s landslide victory, the Essex-based actress has already been tipped to become the show’s highest earner in history.

She has already scooped £25,000 in prize money, and a source has told MailOnline she’s already being inundated with lucrative offers, meaning she could surpass multi-millionaire Molly-Mae Hague, 23, who was runner-up on the 2019 series, to become the show’s richest ever star.

Ekin-Su, who entered the villa on the third day as a bombshell, has already had a taste of the spotlight, having starred in Turkish soap operas and reality shows before entering the Love Island villa, and the brunette is now set to cash in with an estimated £1 million payday.

A source close to Ekin-Su told MailOnline: ‘We’ve never seen the likes of the deals that are already coming through the door. It’s not just your typical reality TV fodder.

‘She’s absolutely inundated with lucrative offers from brands and they’re prepared to pay big money to get her onboard. She’s going to be the new Molly-Mae Hague!’
