Ronan Keating 'not happy' with son Jack's Love Island comments

Jack Keating said his dad, Ronan Keating, was 'not happy' after he discussed his career on Love Island.

Jack entered the show during Casa Amor but, after failing to couple up with anyone, got the boot before he made it to the main villa. Though his time was cut short he managed to gain a lot of attention for being the son of the famous musician.

While Ronan gave Jack his full support, one comment didn't go down too well with the former Boyzone singer. During a conversation with Gemma, Michael Owen's daughter, the topic turned to their famous dads.

The 23-year-old was kind about his dad but went on to discuss the state of his career, claiming he was 'retired.' Speaking to the Daily Star, Jack said he was 'in the dog house' with his dad after the show.

Jack said: "He was enjoying it and loving it and was proud of me beside the fact I said he was retired halfway through the show.

"He was pretty delighted with everything else that I said. But no he was not happy one bit that I said that he said he almost fell out of his chair when he first heard that. I was definitely in the dog house for a little bit when I first got back."

Ronan recently discussed the comments and aftermath on The One Show where he clarified he was still working hard. He said: "He did drop the line that I was retired, that I was shocked about! I nearly fell off my chair! What? I'm doing The One Show next week, I'm in York tonight! No I'm definitely not retired!"
