ITV Love Island's Gemma Owen bonds with Casa Amor newcomer over famous parents

Love Island's Gemma Owen will grow close to a Casa Amor newcomer on tonight's show.

Michael Owen's daughter is currently coupled up with fishmonger Luca Bish on the popular dating programme. However, the show has been rocked with chaos by the introduction of the famous villa.

The girls moved into the second villa at the end of Friday's night episode which ended as they were introduced to the six new Islanders. Jack Keating is one of the new Islanders - and the 23-year-old is the son of popstar, Ronan Keating.

The Islander hails from Dublin and said his dad is looking forward to seeing him on the show. He added: "He will be watching when I’m on it for sure. He’s buzzing for me, me and my dad are very close, we’re best mates."

Gemma addressed her famous dad for the first time in the villa last week, but she and Jack will chat on tonight's show about their celebrity connections.

The Team GB dressage competitor is impressed by Jack's revelation that his mum is a showjumper and quizzes the Islander on his dad's background.

In a preview, Jack said: "You know Ronan Keating? That's the old man." Gemma is gobsmacked by the revelation before Jack explains he is a very family orientated person.

Jack added: "It would be something I’d definitely look for in a girl. I’ve got a big crazy family back home."
