Singer Ronan Keating has become a granddad for the first time after his son Jack announced the birth of his child.

The Boyzone star, 46, welcomed his "cutie" granddaughter in a sweet post on social media.

It comes after Jack Keating, son of Ronan and his ex-wife Yvonne Connolly, 49, introduced his new bundle of joy to the world on Instagram last night.

Love Island contestant Jack, 23, shared a black and white photo of himself, with his baby daughter in his arms.

The 2022 islander captioned the image: "Welcome to the world my little [princess emoji]".

The Irish singer wrote: "Little cutie [heart emoji]".

Jack's mum Yvonne also commented about being a grandmother. She said: "I miss her so much already [pink heart emojis]".

Ronan and Yvonne share three children together, with Jack being the oldest.

The couple were married until 2015, where Ronan went onto marry Storm Keating.

The Australian fashion designer, 41, shares two children with Ronan.

They have Cooper, aged five and two-year-old Coco.

Storm also congratulated her step-son by leaving red heart emojis under his Instagram post.

The baby's name hasn't been announced yet.

However, the sweet news has baffled some Love Island fans.

Jack appeared on the ITV2 show in July last year, leaving fans wondering whether his baby was conceived before he entered the villa.

One user commented: "I know I’m bad at maths, but the math ain’t mathing on this at all!!! Love Island isn’t even 9 months ago yet. I mean I know accidents happen but…."

"So did he have a gf when he was in Love Island correct me if I'm wrong it said he was in the villa 8 months ago and a baby takes 9 ?!" another asked.

Jack hasn't posted anything about being in a relationship and it is not known who the mother of his baby is.
