It’s been confirmed that one of Michael Owen’s daughters, Gemma Rose Owen is part of 2022’s Love Island series.
Gemma is actually the eldest of former England, Newcastle and Liverpool star Michael’s kids.
Who is Gemma Rose Owen?
Gemma Rose Owen, born on May 1, 2003 is Michael Owens eldest child.
The now 19-year-old is set to become famous just like her ex-footballer dad, as she prepares to enter the 2022 Love Island villa.
We’ve seen Gemma out and about with Michael at the races – perhaps unsurprising, as she’s revealed she is a keen equestrian and international dressage competitor.
Previously, he praised his eldest – then aged 18 – for launching her own collection of swimwear. He wrote on Instagram: ‘Pretty damn proud of my daughter for launching her new @ogbeachwear brand.’
Gemma was also recently in the news after she was wrongly mistaken online for an OnlyFans model named Jill.

Michael also has a 16-year-old son named James Michael Owen, who was born on February 6, 2006.
James has Stargardt disease, a rare condition which causes degeneration of the retina in the eye. Michael publicly shared this information in 2019, saying his son was ‘clinically blind’.
In an interview with The Times, Michael said: ‘He will never be a footballer. My son’s got an eye condition. I’ve never said this. I don’t want a big headline.
‘Clinically, he’s blind. He’s got Stargardt disease, a degeneration of his retina. I used to go and watch him and bollock him about his positioning. He can’t see the ball until it’s five yards away.
‘As much as every father wants their son to play, it is almost a relief to me.’
His two youngest daughters are Emily May Owen, 14, and Jessica Owen, 12. They were born in October 2007 and February 2010.
Occasionally, Michael does share photos of his four children on his Instagram page.
