"Love Island" stars Gemma Owen and Luca Bish draw criticism in a recent extravagant girlfriend proposal, and it looks like fans aren't the only ones that felt something off about it.

Luca Bish participated in the 8th season of the reality dating game show, "Love Island. He was later on crowned as the runner-up alongside Gemma Owen, daughter of pro-football player Michael Owen, on Day 58.

The new couple recently shared the relationship proposal on their social media. The plan proved to be grand as the poolside venue was littered with red roses and set up with lit candles.

Gemma posted a series of photos on her Instagram featuring highlights of the grand proposal. However, a source tells OK that the reality star may have felt a bit off with the "extravagant" public display of affection.

"She played along as she could see how much effort he'd gone to but it made her uncomfortable," The source told OK. "She was never keen on PDAs in the villa and she wished he'd kept it private rather than plaster it all over Instagram. It's making her nervous about their future."

The Plan Worked For Luca

Despite the alleged discomfort felt by Gemma, she still said "yes" to Luca's grand proposal. A second source close to Luca insists that Gemma was "blown away" by his extravagant gesture.

"Luca isn't big into social media and couldn't care less about likes. He doesn't take himself too seriously. He wanted her to feel special and she couldn't have seemed happier. She was totally blown away." The source explained.

The "Love Island" runner-up posted a video on his Instagram featuring highlights of their documented milestone.

Despite the success of Luca's plan, fans are left confused at the public display of affection as Gemma had specifically mentioned during their time on the reality show that she preferred to keep their displays private. Some "Love Island" fans expressed their thoughts on the new couple on Twitter.
