Love Island bombshell Jack Keating is believed to have had his baby daughter with artist Keely Iqbal, after it was announced he had welcomed his first child on Thursday 9 March.
In the surprise post, the 23 year old, who is Irish singer Ronan Keating's eldest son, was over the moon to reveal he had become a dad.
But fans were completely taken-aback as not only had Jack not gone public in any relationships since Love Island, but he also appeared on the show only eight months ago.
Now gorgeous brunette Keely has responded to a series of comments congratulating Jack and the mother of his child, with some addressing her directly, which seemingly confirmed the adorable tot is hers.
One person wrote: "@keelyiqbal she is your double through and through.
"Congratulations both. PS its about frickin time. At least its out now."
"Congratulations @keelyiqbal and @jackkeating11," another praised.
While a third gushed: "Little angel, happy for you both," prompting Keely to reply with a heart emoji.
"Congrats to you and @keelyiqbal soo proud of you!" another person added excitedly.
Keely's Instagram page is full of snaps from her pregnancy and in her bio, the star listed her roles as a "mummy," "artist," and "sneakerhead".
Jack opted to keep his news completely under wraps throughout the pregnancy, though close friends and family are thought to have known for a while.
But after the former reality star took to Instagram to reveal his news, Keely responded to the flurry of messages congratulating the pair for "finally" sharing the announcement.
While it's unclear if Jack was ever in a relationship with Keely, or still is, fans remain puzzled over the timing of his Love Island appearance last summer, when he spent time getting to know Gemma Owen in Casa Amor during the show's stint in Mallorca, Spain.
What's more, Jack recently told The Irish Independent he was on the dating app "Hinge, but I don't use it too seriously".
The TV star also joked he was "single and ready to mingle," adding that he dips in to the dating app "every once in a while".
He claimed he was "enjoying being single" and didn't mention anything about a recent break-up either.
Jack will be appearing on an episode of Dinner Date on ITV later this month.
