Love Island fans have suspected they’ve worked out the ‘real reason’ behind Luca Bish’s tears as he was reunited with his parents on Sunday night’s episode.

Fishmonger and Love Island finalist Luca, 23, was seen breaking down in tears as both his and Gemma Owen’s loved ones entered the villa.

Luca’s mum and dad, Maria and Michael, joined Gemma’s mum Louise and friend Sarah as they made their way through the villa to for an emotional reunion with the Islanders.

As Luca watched the group of four make their way through the floral walkway from the villa into the sprawling pad’s garden, he became overwhelmed with emotion.

Welling up Luca said to his parents, who Nick Cave paid tribute to recently: “Don’t otherwise you’ll make me cry.”

As he sat down with his parents while Gemma got reacquainted with her mum and friend, Luca looked at his dad’s footwear and said: “I can’t believe you came in fish flops!”

“They’re for you actually,” Michael said while Maria added: “They’re trendy now!”

Luca giggled while sat by the fire pit with his mum and dad before he asked: “How’s it going?”

An emotional Maria then confessed: “We just… We miss you, sorry,” she said before welling up.

And Luca can be seen fighting back tears as he turned away to gather himself while his dad reassured him: “Not long now though.”

“I know,” an emotional Luca replied while his mum asked: “Do you miss home?”

And a tearful Luca said: “Yeah, course I’ve missed home,” while he blinked away tears.

As the scenes aired on Sunday evening, some sceptical fans shared their suspicions that Luca’s tears are over the fact that Gemma’s football legend dad Michael Owen didn’t travel to the villa for the episode.

One wrote: “Luca is only crying cos he can’t see Gemma’s dad #LoveIsland”.

Another added: “Luca is crying more cause he isn’t meeting Gemma’s dad #LoveIsland”.

“Yh Luca is 100% disappointed about the fact Michael aint there. Did u see the look he gave,” a third added.

And a fourth wrote: “Luca is angry deep down Gemma’s dad didn’t come #LoveIsland”.

Despite Michael, 42, being a no-show on Sunday night’s episode he did have a message for his eldest daughter.

Gemma’s mum Louise, who called Luca a Michael Owen lookalike, told 19-year-old Gemma: “Honestly, he is really proud of you, really proud.”

Michael shared his reasons for skipping the trip to the Majorcan villa

Louise added of the rest of the family: “They’re all loving watching you, they’re missing you like mad.”

Michael addressed his reasons for not heading into the Love Island villa after it was reported his work schedule is free for him to travel to Majorca for the Meet The Parents challenge.

peaking to Sky Sports’ At The Races after watching his horse Box to Box run, the football pundit was quizzed about if he will be making the journey to the villa. He explained: “My wife will do that duty. I’ll represent the horses and she’ll represent the daughter.”

He added: “I don’t know what I’ll get from Box To Box. But I know what I’m going to get from my daughter.

“I’ve fathered her for 19 years so I’m pretty sure what I’m going to get from her.”
