Chester Love Island star Gemma Owen's chances of winning the ITV dating show have shifted after she coupled up with Davide on Tuesday.
The Italian stallion had to pick one of the girls to couple up with within 24 hours after his bombshell entrance on the opening show.
While Davide Sanclimenti, 27, spoke to Welsh paramedic Paige and dancer Tasha during his grafting, he ended up choosing Michael Owen's 19-year-old daughter.
A decision which seems to have impacted Gemma's odds of winning the show and leaving with the 50K, according to Betfair.
Love Island star Gemma Owen's odds of winning shift after recoupling
Before we had any couples to gossip about, Gemma's odds of winning the ITV reality show were pretty high.
Tasha Ghouri who is Love Island’s first-ever deaf contestant was, and remains, the favourite to win the dating show on 2/1.
She was closely followed by England legend Michael Owen’s daughter, Gemma, on 5/2 odds.
But since the recoupling, her chances have 'drifted', according to Betfair, and have fallen to 11/2.
Betfair spokesperson Sam Rosbottom said: “Gemma Owen’s odds to win Love Island have drifted to 11/2 from 5/2 since the show started as she continues to get a frosty reception from fans on social media. Davide Sanclimenti coupled up with Gemma towards the end of Night 2 and they are 16/1 to be the winning couple."
Mr Rosbottom added: “Davide’s decision to pick Gemma left Liam Llewellyn single, with the latter now the 15/8 favourite to be the first male eliminated. Gemma is 3/1 to be the first female to go, while Amber Beckford is the frontrunner to leave at 15/8. Looking at who could win, Tasha Ghouri is 2/1 to be the female winner as Luca Bish has the same odds for the male contestants."
Love Island love triangle between Gemma, Liam and Davide continues
The love triangle between the three islanders is set to continue into episode three.
Despite recoupling with Davide, Gemma pulls Liam for a chat to speak about the shock decision.
Speaking at the fire pit with Gemma, Liam says: “Tomorrow is a new day - I’ve got work to do!”
Gemma replies: “Me being in a couple with him hasn’t changed how I feel about you. I still want to chat to you. It’s still early days. But I can imagine it’s not a nice situation to be in.”
Liam admits: “You’re still at the top of my tree! I’ve got a good feeling about you. You are girlfriend material, the way you are and the way you carry yourself.”
With the arrival of two new girls - Afia and Ekin-Su - everything could still change.
