As the Love Island drama heats up, it would seem Gemma Owen‘s odds of winning have cooled as audiences slammed the contestant as ‘spoilt’ and ‘rude’.
Michael Owen’s daughter also failed to impress viewers in the latest episode on Tuesday when she called herself ‘old-fashioned’ while chatting to Italian hunk Davide Sanclimenti, 27.
According to Ladbrokes, the dressage rider has ‘tumbled to third-favourite’ despite heading the pact before the series premier on Monday.

Speaking on behalf of the betting company, Alex Apati told The Sun: ‘Punters may have scored an own goal in backing Gemma Owen for success in the villa.
‘Having headed the betting before Monday’s series opener, she’s tumbled to third-favourite, behind the popular Paige and Tasha.’
Tuesday’s episode saw Liam Llewellyn dumped by Gemma and left on his own when Monday’s bombshell contestant Davide coupled up with her.

However as Twitter was a flurry of rage about the islanders’ age difference – Gemma being 19 and Davide, 27 – many on social media also branded the young athlete a ‘brat’.
One said: ‘Gemma has no tact lol she is just rude. No home training.’
Another added: ‘Gemma Owen giving off spoilt brat vibes.’
Elsewhere a user quipped: ‘We have eight weeks of watching some spoilt rude brat – no thank!! Gemma needs to get booted out ASAP.’

A fourth tweet also remarked that they hope Davide goes for one of the two new bombshells set to enter the villa.
‘Kind of hoping Davide goes for one of the new girls and dumps Gemma I just get spoilt teenage brat vibes from her,’ they said.
Another user wrote: ‘I really really don’t Gemma attitude, she comes across so rude and cocky.’
Meanwhile a tweet also remarked that they felt her young age shouldn’t be used as a defence.
‘I really don’t know how you all are seeing Gemma as anything but rude,’ they said. ‘I feel like you all are using her age to defend how she acts saying “oh she’s young but mature and goes for what she wants” NO she’s rude and entitled and expects things.’
Viewers also took to Twitter to voice their confusion at Gemma – who was born in 2003 and turned 19 in May – calling herself ‘old-fashioned’.

It comes as on Tuesday, ITV2 viewers were given a taste of what’s to come as Afia Tonkmor and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu were unveiled as shock new contestants.
Afia – who works as a Lounge Host at a Private Members Club in London – explained that signing up for the show felt like a ‘once in a lifetime’ opportunity but believes she is still single because she tends to ‘fall in love too quickly.’
The 25-year-old said: ‘It just seems like a once in a lifetime opportunity to meet someone, have an amazing summer, just have so much fun, and have a bit of a summer romance as well.

‘Nothing like cockiness! I’m looking for a serious man and a serious relationship. I’ll bring the whole package to the villa – drama, tears, laughter, joy, and love.
‘I’m looking for the love of my life. I’m not there to make friends. If someone wants to have an argument with me, bring it on.’
