Love Island bombshell Jack Keating’s mother has responded after some nasty online comments from viewers.
The 23-year-old Dubliner entered the Casa Amor villa last week and wasted no time getting to know the girls.
In the most recent episode, viewers watched Jack share a bed with Tasha and chat to Gemma Owen by the pool.

Jack and Gemma discussed family and what it was like to have a famous dad. Jack is the son of Boyzone frontman Ronan Keating while Gemma’s dad is footballer Michael Owen.
Jack’s mum Yvonne Connoll is also very well known as a model and TV personality.
Taking to Instagram ahead of Sunday night’s episode, she thanked her 37k followers for their “positive” comments and hit out at some negative ones on other social media platforms, reports Irish Mirror.
“After the teaser I’m looking forward to watching Jack tonight on Love Island.
“Thank you so much for all your comments. All positive (can’t say the same for other platforms!)
“So many people wishing Jack well and rooting for him. It means so much. My heart.”
Love Island airs at 9pm on ITV2.
