Love Island spoilers: Ronan Keating’s son Jack reveals who his famous dad is as he gets close to Gemma Owen
RONAN Keating’s son Jack reveals who his famous dad is in Love Island tonight as he gets cosy with Gemma Owen.
The 23-year-old is one of six of the ITV2 show’s new lads arriving in the notorious Casa Amor.
He tells Gemma, who is the daughter of Michael Owen, about his ex-Boyzone star father, who also hosts The One Show.
In Casa Amor, Gemma and Jack are relaxing by the pool when the conversation turns to family.
Jack says: “My mum and my little sister are big into show jumping and everything like that. I know you’re big into it as well.”
Gemma, who is a dressage rider, says: “Oh ok, oh wow!” before asking: “So your mum is a showjumper? So what does your dad do?”

Jack’s mum is Yvonne Connelly, who had three children with Ronan before they split in 2015.

During their conversation sat on the bean bags, Mollie says: “I thought I’d pull you for a chat and just see what you’re about.”
They soon realise that they have a lot in common.
Mollie says: “Guess what? My last name’s Salmon.”
Luca says: “No, it’s not!”
Mollie continues: “I swear to you. Luca Bish, Mollie fish!”
Desperate to know where she stands, Mollie asks: “I’m semi-closed, yeah…
