NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Jack Keating, son of ex Boyzone star Ronan Keating, is now a father. The 23-year-old 'Love Island' star shared the surprising news on his Instagram on Thursday night. "Welcome to the world my little Princess," he wrote in the caption of the first photo he posted of his newborn daughter.

Since leaving the 'Love Island' villa last summer, Jack has not made any mention of a romantic relationship, and the mother of the child remains unidentified. This is the first time that father-of-five Ronan, 46, has become a grandfather, calling the newborn a "little cutie."

In the pictures, Jack appeared to be a loving father looking down adoringly at the child he was holding in his arms. As Paige Thorne wrote, "Congratulations hunny!!," his friends and other 'Love Island' celebrities were eager to offer their congratulations. Storm, Ronan's second wife, and Jack's biological mother responded to the post by adding a string of heart emojis. The Irish singer and his ex-wife, Yvonne Connolly, 48, share their oldest kid, Jack, as well as Missy, 22, and Ali, 17, who were born during their 12-year marriage, reports Daily Mail.

Other followers commented, "You are going to be the most amazing Dad, love you Jack xxx." Many others started pouring comments like "Congratulations brother!!" "Awww congratulations" "Congratulations Jack , you’ll be the best Dad" "Couldn’t be happier. So proud of you," and so on.



 

MailOnline has gotten in touch with Jack's representative for comment. Jack recently asserted, "I’m still single and ready to mingle" in an interview with The Independent. "I’m on Hinge [the dating app], but I don’t use it too seriously. I dip in every once in a while and I’m enjoying being single," he continued. "People think my account is fake. I’m verified, but they still believe I’m a catfish who’s stolen someone else’s photos. I’m like: 'Trust me – I’m the real deal."'

A little bit about Jack Keating

On Thursday, 9 March, Ronan Keating's oldest son Jack surprised everyone by sharing a sweet Instagram post announcing the birth of his first kid. To the joy of his fans and followers, Jack seemed to be completely enamoured with his daughter as he held her close, embracing fatherhood. The announcement came just 8 months after Jack surprised viewers on the 'Love Island' 2022 season when it was revealed that he was one of the six single boys entering Casa Amor, as per OK.co.uk.

The 23-year-old divides his time between Dublin and London, where he is a dedicated rugby player and works in social media marketing. Jack stated that he has been "dating for a long time" and that he has been single for almost five years. He continued, "I’ve been single for a long time, probably 4 or 5 years now and I’ve really been missing that spark that I haven’t been getting on the dating scene, like I’ve been dating for a long time."

Jack and his well-known father Ronan have a close relationship. Together with George Tasker, Josh Samuel Le Grove, Deji Adeniyi, Billy Brown, and Samuel Agbiji, Jack entered Casa Amor, the second villa on 'Love Island.'
