Gemma managed to raise the most heart rates out of all the girls - including boys like Jay, her ex Jacques, and her current lover Luca. However another man whose heart rate may have been raised for different reasons was her dad - who tuned in to the episode to watch his daughter's dancing.
The football legend posted on Twitter with a simple emoji covering its eyes.

Fans of the show became convinced that the name Michael Owen had been banned in the villa after two weeks of the former football star's daughter flying underneath the radar - with no one linking her to her famous father.
However a Love Island contestant who recently exited the villa later revealed why Gemma's dad has not been mentioned during the show - despite some fans dubbing this series "Gemma's Island."
Afia Tonkmor, who was the second person to exit the show after Liam Llewellyn, explained that people in the villa just don't care about Gemma's dad. Answering a question about if the islanders know who her father is on an Instagram Q&A, she said: "If people do know - I did know before I went in because I watched her VT - but if they do know they don't care, nobody really cares," she replied.
"I don't know who he is. I know he's a football guy. It was never, ever spoke about in my presence."
