Love Island's Gemma and Luca profess love for one another – but fans aren't convinced

ok.co.uk:

Love Island's Gemma Owen and Luca Bish have finally professed their love for one another and uttered those famous three words.There's only one problem – Love Island fans are less than impressed and some are even suggesting the 19 year old didn't even mean it.

The romantic exchange was started by fishmonger Luca, 23, who uttered the words "I love you" but rather than get the response he wanted, Gemma responded: "That’s actually mad to hear that." Luca persevered and nudged his partner to try another answer which resulted in her finally saying: "I love you too." Sitting in the Beach Hut afterwards, Luca left viewers teary eyed as he admitted it was "one of the best days of my life".

Although most believe Luca was being honest others have slammed Gemma for not loving him back. One viewer said: "As a body language expert who is not an expert Luca and Gemma don’t like each other and Gemma did not mean that pls." A second said: "Gemma does not love this man." Another fan said: "Gemma fought that “I love you” back with everything she had." A fourth suggested Luca had pressured Gemma into saying it, writing: "Now, do we think Gemma REALLY wanted to say it already, or was mr.fisherman [Luca] kinda pushing it a lil…idk if i’m sold sold." Later in the episode Gemma admitted to her fellow girls that when Luca asked to see her she was thinking, "Oh s**t".

But sitting in the Beach Hut she went onto tell viewers that she was "really happy" and the girls reaction "was really nice to hear".
