Let’s get to know more about Jack Keating, shall we? (Picture: ITV)

Jack Keating entered the Love Island villa as part of the Casa Amor bombshells, with fans shocked to learn he was the second Islander with a famous family this year.

The singleton has been getting on well in the villa so far and doing the rounds, getting to know the girls.

He’s bonded especially well with Gemma Owen, with the two sharing stories of celebrity dads.

So while the islanders are learning more about Jack, it’s only fair we do the same.

Who is Jack Keating?

Born in Dublin, Ireland, Jack – the son of Boyzone star Ronan Keating – works in social media marketing.

He’s one of five children, with his siblings including Missy, 21 (who was initially rumoured to make a Love Island appearance), and Ali, 16, who Ronan shares with ex Yvonne Connolly, and Cooper, five, and Coco, two, who the singer shares with his wife Storm.

Prior to his entrance into the villa, Ronan, 45, threw his support behind his eldest, admitting that he was, however, ‘nervous as hell’ too.

‘When I saw him walk into the villa my heart was beating out of my chest,’ he said.

He added to MailOnline: ‘I’m excited for him though, this is something he wanted to do, and I’ll always support him and all my kids in their endeavours.’

How old is Jack Keating?

After entering the villa, he made a beeline for 19-year-old Gemma in Casa Amor – although it seems unlikely that her head will turn from Luca Bish.

The two quickly got chatting, though, sharing how important family is to them.

Jack told Gemma: ‘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 professional dressage competitor herself, replied: ‘Oh ok, oh wow! So your mum is a showjumper? So what does your dad do?’

Jack told her his father is ‘a singer’, leaving Gemma to question: ‘A well-known singer?’

Jack answered: ‘Yeah he is, you know Ronan Keating? That’s the old man.’

How to follow Jack Keating on Instagram

Jack’s Instagram handle is JackKeating11 – his follower count is already climbing since he first appeared on the show, as to be expected.

He typically posts snaps from boujee holidays – with destinations including France and Turkey – or pics with his pals.

Catch all the action from the villa Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub. Episodes are available the following morning on BritBox.
