Ronan Keating's two words of advice to son Jack before Love Island appearance

Ed Balls has proven himself to be quite the Love Island fan during his recent stint on Good Morning Britain. The former Labour politician has been co-hosting the ITV news programme for a number of weeks alongside Susanna Reid.

OK!'s much-loved columnist, comedian Judi Love has once again given us her highly-anticipated verdict on Love Island. Writing in her column, Judi predicts secret sparks flying between Gemma Owen and Casa Amor newbie Billy Brown.

EXCLUSIVE: ITV’s popular reality TV game show Love Island is in the spotlight once again. The polarising dating program, back on UK screens for an eighth season, remains appointment viewing for its many fans. For others, the format still raises concerns.

It's hard to believe as to what's now become an institution, but Manchester's Hard Rock Cafe first opened in the city more than 20 years ago.

Gemma Owen is 19 years old.And can we just say something? When we were 19 we were having cereal for dinner at uni and learning how to iron without burning the house down. Compare those classy images to Gemma Owen's reality of being a 19-year-old international dressage rider for Great Britain, living an ultra glam showbiz lifestyle and dating a string of older hunky men (we say 'older', one of them was Jacques O'Neil, who is exhibiting the emotional maturity of...can we just say Jacques?)Gemma Owen, who is Michael Owen's daughter (again for you rock people), has been hitting headlines for her age (she turned 19 in May) before she even appeared on our screens.

Love Island villa to support son Jack. The Boyzone singer spoke out on BBC The One Show. Ronan said: "The bottom line is to just be yourself and I hope the people at home will see that and warm to him, because he's my boy.

Casa Amor is back for another year and with it comes the drama and tension as the Islander’s relationships are put to the ultimate test – and it has even tested some of the boys' friendships. This year, in a twist from previous series', the Love Island girls were whisked away to Casa Amor to meet the new boys and the boys stayed in the villa to meet the six new girls.The villa has only split in two for a few days and already it's given so much drama, including Andrew Le Page's head turning and Dami Hope getting very close to a bombshell.

Love Island star Gemma Owen has opened up on her relationship with famous footballer dad Michael Owen, admitting it's "love-hate" as she giggled away with Ronan Keating's son Jack.The international dressage rider, who also revealed she knew bombshell Billy and claimed he was a "player", has kept her famous family on the down low for much of this year's series so far, and it was even shared by Ikenna Ekwonna that the grand reveal happened off-screen. But with a fellow famous child entering Casa Amor, it was the perfect opportunity for Gemma and 23 year old Jack to trade stories about their lives and privileged experiences growing up. Getting to know each other during a dip in the house of love swimming pool, while 19 year old Gemma's beau Luca Bish, 24, was back in the original villa, Gemma quizzed Jack: "So your dad was in..." "He was in Boyzone," the red-headed Irish bombshell replied easily.

The Love Island contestants are set to face their biggest relationship test yet as Casa Amor returns. After Friday night's episode saw Antigoni Buxton and Charlie Radnedge dumped from villa, the remaining girls were then whisked off on a 'girls night out'.

Amanda Holden has revealed she has decided to ban her eldest daughter Lexi Hughes from ever appearing on Love Island in the future. The Britain's Got Talent judge, 51, made the comments after discussing how her daughter, 16, had become "obsessed" by the latest series of the ITV2 dating show. She explained her decision saying that Lexi may have gotten ideas to be a future islander after seeing how Michael Owen's 19 year old daughter Gemma had got on since entering the villa.

Love Island viewers finally got the 'famous dad' bombshell moment from Gemma Owen, but it wasn't all it was hyped up to be. There was a lot of disappointment on Thursday night's episode of the show, with her supposedly big reveal as Michael Owen's daughter being barely worth mentioning - as most of the Islanders apparently already knew.

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield were back at the helm of This Morning today with yet another interesting line-up of discussions, interviews and celebrity guests. Following the recent news that John Lewis will now offer Botox and fillers at six of its UK stores, a member of the show's crew was given Botox live on air.

Love Island star Tasha Ghouri's family has responded to online trolls making fun of her deafness. The model and dancer – making history as the first deaf contestant on the show – has been on the receiving end of some negative comments over her condition, with her loved ones urging fans to "lead with love".

They're currently residing in Majorca as they attempt to find love, but this year's Love Island stars also have incredible homes back in the UK and Ireland. The 2022 Love Island cast are currently living in a brand new villa over in Spain, and many were noticeably blown away when they arrived and took a tour of the sprawling property.

Made In Chelsea favourite Sam Thompson has predicted an interesting turn of events when it comes to this year's series of Love Island.The 29-year-old reality star turned to his 1.4 million Instagram followers on Tuesday night to share his theory that contestant Gemma Owen is relying on her famous footballing father Michael Owen to ensure she stays in the show for the long-run. Speaking to girlfriend Zara McDermott in a vlog whilst watching last night's episode - which saw the original line-up's Amber Beckford and Ikenna Ekwonna brutally dumped - Sam jokes: "Gemma, just knowing she wasn't going to get picked." Zara - who is best known for having appeared on the 2018 series of the best-loved dating show - agreed: "Gemma knew as soon as they said there was going to be a dumping tonight, Gemma was so relaxed!"
