Michael Owen is currently Pundit
However, the Englishman still had a lot of money tied up in his wealth. Owen currently owns Manor House Stables, a 160-acre horse racing training institute located in Cheshire. In addition, he is the owner of the ‘Michael Owen Management Company’, which focuses on managing young players and their careers. Owen has also been a BT Sport pundit since 2014.
Wife
The pair met in primary school in 1984 and became childhood sweethearts at Howardon High School in Flintshire, Wales.
The pair became engaged in 2004 on Valentine’s Day—which is also Lewis’ birthday—when he proposed at their home.
Originally, they set out to get married at their home, but decided against it due to rules and had a small private ceremony before being blessed at their home in front of a lot of guests.
Louise is described as “not your typical WAG” and has a passion in rescuing horses and has grounds in her home where she can keep horses and Michael keeps cars.
She began riding at the age of seven when she and brother Andrew took weekend lessons, before her passion grew into helping out at equestrian school and practicing friends’ horses.
Daughter
Take a Tour Around the Brand New Love Island Villa
Love Island is officially back with a fresh set of contestants and a new villa to boot.
However, one contestant has already garnered more attention than the rest – Gemma Owen, daughter of former England football star Michael Owen.
Gemma is the youngest contestant to ever join the island at just 19 years old. She is an international dressage rider for Great Britain and competed at the 2021 European Championships. He is also a business owner who launched his own brand OG Beachwear earlier this year.
Transfermarkt
As a player, Michael Owen appeared against Arsenal more than any other club in his career, and he may have had a fairly good sense of what made the Gunners tick during that period.
However, in a statement that is bound to ruffle some feathers in north London, the former Liverpool, Newcastle, Stoke City, Real Madrid and Manchester United striker says Mesut Ozil is not enough to lead the Gunners to the title.

Writing on the sports social network Sportlobster (H/T Metro’s Massimo Mariani), Owen recently commented that inconsistency is the main reason behind his doubts in Ozil’s ability, stating:
Arsenal do not have the class of player to go toe-to-toe with the main title contenders.
Despite people constantly telling me that Mesut zil is world class, his inconsistency means that we get the seldom glimpse of true quality.
Their oddly good performance is usually followed by a half dozen poor performances.
Arsene Wenger will undoubtedly be among the number of people who disagree with Owen’s view, who will benefit strongly from the arrival of his £42.5 million summer takeover.
