Love Island: Jack Keating reveals he was second choice for hit show after sister Missy

Jack Keating has revealed that he was second choice for Love Island, after his younger sister Missy turned it down.

He left the show on Friday after failing to find a romantic connection with any of the girls in Casa Amor.
