Claudia Fogarty's famous father Carl Fogarty kept a straight face as he watched Casey's Casa Amor antics on Love Island.
Casey had immediately shown an interest in Claudia when she entered the villa, with the pair immediately hitting it off and quickly deciding to couple up. On After Sun tonight, the family was filmed watching the dramatic Casa Amor recoupling, which saw Casey end up deciding to stick with Claudia rather than couple up with one of the new bombshells.
As they sat down to watch it, Carl could be heard saying "here we go" as the family all crowded around the TV. Casey's family admitted they were unsure what he might do whilst Claudia's mum said it must have been hard for Cynthia.
"Pick her, you know you want to," Carl said as he watched Casey make his decision. Carl kept a straight face as Claudia returned single, whilst her mum said he couldn't "mess around" anymore and he needed to stay loyal from now on.
Claudia previously admitted her dad was excited for her to join the show.
"He was really for it. My dad said he was really proud and to take the opportunity to find someone that’s not a d***head, that’s exactly what he said to me," she said, before adding of his rules: "Absolutely no sex on TV he said. He hasn’t really watched it before so it’s going to be a bit of a shock. I just said get a blind fold on, shut your eyes, if you don’t like it, turn it off."
Claudia's dad is well used to reality TV, having appeared on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here, and before she headed into the villa, he gave her some advice on what she could expect being front and centre on TV every night.
She said: "My dad just told me to be myself, he said the one thing you can’t do is hide who you are, he said he loves who I am and everyone else will love me. My dad wins everything he does but for me it’s not about winning it’s about finding love.
"It was so nice to see how many people loved my dad and for people to see the real him. My dad will be proud to watch me, but he will also be nervous. He said he’s excited to see me on TV as opposed to him - he’s passed me the baton."
Claudia seems comfortable in a pairing with Casey now, and she will no doubt hope he gets her dad's seal of approval.
Asked how a potential boyfriend could impress her dad, she said: "To be able to ride a motorbike! No, in all seriousness he just wants me to find someone that is driven and settled. If I can find someone that my family loves too, that would be amazing."
