Michael Owen says he won't be going into the Love Island villa if his daughter is still on the show when the contestants are visited by their parents.
Gemma Owen has been in the current series since it started and is coupled up with Luca Bish.

She has also been coupled up with Liam in the opening days of the series before pairing off with Davide.
But Michael told Sky Sports Racing he'd rather head to the race-course than over to Majorca.
"My wife might do that duty. I can represent the horses and she can represent the daughter."
The former Liverpool and Real Madrid footballer tweeted an emoji earlier in the series when Gemma was taking part in the heart-racing challenge.
Love Island continues tonight on Virgin Media Two at 9pm.
