The former footballer, 42, whose 19-year-old child is currently competing in the reality show ITV2, had previously stated that the difficult position is his “worst nightmare”. And now, Glasgow City FC’s Paul Proud has resigned from the club, having deleted his Twitter account following the reactions. Fuming: Michael Owen blasted a football coach who wrote on Twitter that he was looking forward to seeing his 19-year-old daughter Gemma “hit” on Love Island (photo in June 2022) He had written about Gemma: “I look forward to seeing her crumble”, followed by a long line of laughter, bravo and emoji “ok”. Former Liverpool striker Michael soon replied: “What a good example to set by a man in your responsible position.” A not-so-proud Paul went on to tell the Sun: “My account has been deleted and I resigned immediately, so there is no story to show.” He claimed that the post was written “for fun”, had “gone out of context”, but eventually did the “right thing” to get away from the club. Family: The former footballer, 42, whose 19-year-old is currently competing in the reality show ITV2, had previously stated that the difficult position is his “worst nightmare”. Michael was out of the country earlier this week when teen Gemma made her debut on Love Island. The former England star had not watched a single episode of the controversial dating show until he turned on his television in time for Wednesday’s episode. There on the screen was his “pride and joy” fooling around in a bikini before cramming into bed with Italian stallion Davide Sanclimenti, eight years her senior. “It’s not something a father wants to watch, right?” he told the Daily Mail with some devaluation. Cringe! He had written about Gemma: “I look forward to seeing her crash”, following an extensive series of laughter, bravo and “ok” emoji Admitting that he was a little confused by the rules of Love Island, especially one who sees contestants who are just beginning to share a bed, Louise’s wife was ready to offer comments and analysis. His account suggests it must have been as if he were explaining the offside rule to an ignorant footballer. I said to Louise, “Do they really have to sleep together, like in the same bed?” She said yes. I said, “I did not believe that.” “My Pride and Joy”: Michael was out of the country earlier this week when teen Gemma made her Love Island debut (2005 photo) He watched with clenched teeth, but wants to stress that it could have been worse. “Fortunately for me, there was no physical contact. Gemma had her back to the press. “There was a gap between them. I thought, “Good girl.” No father wants to see physical contact, right? I definitely do not. “If there is physical contact, I think I will throw something on the screen. I do not want to see kisses. “Do not make me see kisses!” Eek! The former England star had not watched a single episode of the controversial dating show until Wednesday’s episode aired (photo by Gemma and Davide Sanclimenti) He insisted that Gemma, the eldest of his four children, did not even want to kiss. “It simply came to our notice then. “I did not know anything about the show, but the concern was that he would have to kiss this guy and that guy and the next one. “I was away, so I did not see the first episode, but her mom told me that there was a chance she would have to dance – a dance around or something – that Gemma would be uncomfortable with. “But I guess the more she is in, the more relaxed she will be about such things.” Maintaining classy: Watching with clenched teeth, but wants to emphasize that it could have been worse (Gemma pictured)
