Gemma Owen appears to make subtle swipe at her Love Island ex Luca Bish

Gemma Owen appeared to make a subtle dig towards her Love Island ex Luca Bish after saying she "tried it" and "didn’t like it" in a new Instagram post.

The former Islander, 19, had only just posted about having "no regrets" this year, but seemed to share her dislike about one particular moment.

In a sweet selfie, Gemma posed while wearing a brown roller-neck jumper and clutched onto a glass mug of hot chocolate.

She captioned her post: "Tried it, didn't like it". Although she didn't say exactly what she was talking about, some have suggested it may have been about her relationship.

"Don't forget your heart," said one follower. "This caption definitely is not about hot chocolate," said another – referencing the chocolate emoji in her caption.

Another fan replied: "Ignore all the negativity gem we all love you so much and we’re here supporting you every single step of the way."

Gemma, the daughter of Michael Owen, announced her split from Luca, 23, last month – three months after leaving the hit-ITV2 dating show.

Since their split, Gemma has been focussing on her career after collaborating with PrettyLittleThing and has kept tight-lipped about her feelings surrounding the break-up.

However, speaking at a recent event, she said: "These last few weeks, as going through any breakup, it’s not nice. It’s not a nice time.

"Having to deal with the press and other people’s opinions, and people thinking that they know what’s going on when they don’t, that’s been challenging," Gemma added to Goss.ie.

Gemma added that she was doing "OK" and is "getting through it" by ensuring she is busy.

However, Gemma has been supported by her Love Island co-star pals as she said her girlfriends from the series have been "lovely".

She gushed: "Every single one of them has sent me a message, being there, telling me if I never need a call they’ll be there."

The reality star said the support from pals has made things "a bit easier" following the split.

One Islander who is supporting Gemma is Paige Thorne, as she recently told the Mirror: "I texted Gem to make sure she was all good, just showing her my support and letting her know that I was always there if she ever needed to chat."

She added: "Obviously, coming out of the relationship in the public eye is difficult enough anyway, so she knows I’m there if she needs me and she’ll reach out."
