Gemma is the daughter of famous footballer Michael Owen who estimated net worth is £50million.

The brunette bombshell took to Instagram to share various videos inside her transformed cottage.

In one post the reality beauty showed off a before and after of her newly renovated kitchen which has now been kitted out with grey appliances with gold accents and fixtures.

But while Gemma’s home looks like a million bucks, it seems the renovation didn’t cost her a single penny.

The influencer and reality TV star revealed the makeover was part of a collaboration with a well-known design company, meaning she may have got the entire transformation gifted.

In exchange, Gemma has promoted the company on her social media accounts.

She captioned the video: “Cottage kitchen reno …

“I’m so in love with my kitchen transformation by the incredible team at @prestigedesignyorkshire who have shared my excitement for the project throughout. I’m so happy with the glow up, it’s everything that I wanted & more.

“@prestigedesignyorkshire {ad}”

Whilst, many followers were quick to praise the design, others were less than thrilled with the way Gemma managed to secure the renovation.

Some took to the comments to voice their frustrations, claiming it wasn’t fair that the wealthy star may have got the entire transformation free of charge or discounted.

“It's beautiful..I can't get my head around those being more than able to afford it being given it for free, can still so the #ad but give it to someone who is trying their best to get their home sorted,” one user commented.

Another added: “It’s the same with all famous not just her there’s no point saying it as they won’t pay miss nobody to mr nobody to advertise for them.

"So yeah it is annoying but it happens why does that one person deserve it over thousands of others trying just as hard either if you put it like that everyone is trying their best what makes say you deserve more than the lady next door ??” they continued.

A third penned: “It's life unfortunately money goes to money.”
