RONAN Keating has spoken for the first time about his son Jack's arrival in the Love Island villa.
The Boyzone singer is giving his eldest his full support but admits it hasn't been easy watching the 23-year-old enter Casa Amor.
He told the Mail: "I won't lie, I've been nervous as hell.
"When I saw him walk into the villa my heart was beating out of my chest.
"I'm excited for him though, this is something he wanted to do, and I'll always support him and all my kids in their endeavours."
Last night viewers watched Jack get to know Gemma Owen, who also has a famous dad, retired footballer Michael Owen.
