Love Island star Jack Keating's baby daughter's sweet name is revealed two months after the shock announcement he'd become a father for the first time
Love Island star Jack Keating' baby daughter's name has been revealed - two months after the shock announcement that he had become a father for the first time.
The reality TV star and son of singer Ronan Keating, 23, shares the little one with ex artist Keely Iqbal who he co-parents with.
On Sunday Keely took to Instagram to do a Q&A and when one follower asked her baby's name she replied: 'Maya Ann Keating'.
Jack announced in March in an Instagram post that he had welcomed a baby girl - confusing fans because he hadn't mentioned a child before.
Jack also appeared on the ITV2 show eight months ago at the time - meaning his baby daughter was likely conceived before his appearance on the show.
Keely confirmed the name during a chat with her followers for the Instagram Q&A session.
One fan asked: 'Does baby girl have a last name, daddy's, or is it double barrel?'
Keely clarified the name was Maya Ann Keating and revealed the sweet nod to her mother's side of the family with the middle name, Ann.
She said: 'Ann was my mum's name. She watches Maya from heaven.'
During the chat she also revealed that Maya weighed six pounds and four ounces when she was born.
Elsewhere she discussed how she has been getting on as a new mum, saying: 'Being a mum can be tiring but that's okay because our 3am chats are my favourite and this is by far the best job in the world.'
Jack has not been public about a romantic relationship since leaving the Love Island villa last summer but the mother was revealed to be artist Keely earlier this year.
Irish singer Ronan, 46, shares his eldest child Jack with his ex-wife, Yvonne Connolly who's also a mum to Missy, 22, and Ali, 17, from the couple's 12-year marriage.
The Magic Radio Breakfast host has been with his wife, Australian fashion designer, Storm, 40, since 2010 and the pair have children Cooper, five, and Coco, two, together.
Before entering the Love Island villa Jack said: 'I've been single for a long time, probably 4 or 5 years now and I've really been missing that spark that I haven't been getting on the dating scene like I've been dating for a long time.
'And I just thought why not? Hopefully, I'll get a connection with somebody and see what happens.'
The mother of Jack's newborn daughter is artist Keely.
Keely works as an artist designing custom trainer designs and greeting cards and kept her fans in the loop during her pregnancy by sharing various bump snaps.
She describes herself as 'Mummy. Artist• Sneakerhead' on her business' Instagram profile.
Jack insisted earlier this year that he was 'still single and ready to mingle.'
He spoke to The Independent in February insisting: 'I'm still single and ready to mingle. I'm on Hinge [the dating app], but I don't use it too seriously. I dip in every once in a while and I'm enjoying being single.'
Fans have gathered that Jack conceived his daughter before finding fame on Love Island, due to the fact he entered the villa eight months ago at the time of the birth announcement.
MailOnline contacted Jack's representatives for further comment at the time.
Fans also took to the comments of Jack's post to share their congratulations but noted that the 'math ain't mathing'.
One follower even said: 'I'm so confused. The maths isn't adding up'.
Another echoed: '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….'
A third added: '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 ?!'
A fourth accused: 'So you went on a show to find love not thinking about the girl you got pregnant'.
And a fifth agreed, writing: 'Someone was carrying your baby when you went on Love Island? You're joking.'
While a sixth explained: 'Yeah so he must of got the mum pregnant in June then went into LI (Casa) in July. Unless he waited until he came out of LI and baby's been born a month early.'
