Now, the baby-faced pundit’s daughter Gemma is set to sizzle on our TV screens this summer as a contestant on Love Island.
19-year-old Gemma will look very different on the nation’s TV screens to when we saw her in a mini Newcastle kit as a toddler in her famous daddy’s arms.
The former international dressage rider and swimwear business owner is in it to win it in the famous villa as she reveals she’s just as competitive as her footy star dad.
But Gemma admits former England and Liverpool star Michael, 42, isn’t exactly “buzzing” ahead of her stint in the Majorcan love nest, and has banned her from scoring on the ITV2 hit.
But Gemma isn’t the only footie girl in a league of her own…

As a teen, she worked in theatre and TV and made her film debut in La Rabia in 2008.
