The popular contestant on this year’s Dancing with the Stars isn’t the only Boyzone baby rumoured to be going on the show with Jay Duffy, son Keith Duffy being hot on Missy’s heels at 7/1.

Nicola McGeady of Ladbrokes said: “With summer fast approaching, speculation is mounting over who might be entering the 2022 Love Island villa.

“So far, Missy Keating is the favourite, but only time will tell if Missy, and indeed any other Irish celebs will be headed for a summer of sunshine and romance!”

Another boyband baby, Lily McFadden, is in the running this year at the odds of 14/1.

The daughter of former Westlife singer Brian McFadden has admitted that she turned down an offer to appear on the last series of Love Island.

Missy might not be the only one potentially swapping the dancing shoes for swimwear this Summer as fellow Dancing with the Stars contestants Erica Cody and Jordan Conroy are also fancied among punters for the dating reality show.

Erica Cody is chalked up at 10/1 while Jordan Conroy currently sits at 16/1.

Chloe Ormond, a popular social media influencer and daughter of well-known TV and radio presenter Brian Ormond, is also popular with punters at 8/1.

Limerick model Shauna Lindsay is also in the mix for a summer of romance with odds of 14/1.
