Ronan Keating looked pretty uncomfortable during his latest telly appearance as he was quizzed about his daughter. The Boyzone singer and TV presenter was on Good Morning Britain on Thursday (May 19) to chat about his upcoming tour which is finally going ahead after being cancelled due to the Covid pandemic.
He also chatted to Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway on the ITV news programme about recently being honoured with a doctorate. Ronan, 45, received the honour from the Open University for his work in philanthropy and music and was joined by his wife Storm and two eldest children, Jack and Missy, for the ceremony.
But after speaking about his achievement and upcoming work plans, talk soon turned to Missy and he was asked about the rumours his 21-year-old daughter could be heading to the Good Morning Britain villa when the hit series returns to screens in June.

And it's probably fair to say he hasn't completely quashed the speculation. The Life Is A Rollercoaster singer squirmed in his seat as he was quizzed by the GMB hosts via video link.
Ben said: "I was very excited, as you know I am a watcher of television, to hear the rumour that Missy - your daughter - may be making her way onto Love Island Ronan Keating?" Kate then interjected and said: "She's doing so brilliantly on Dancing With The Stars already isn't she?"
Ben then continued: "Is there any truth? Will we be watching her on the new series?" Ronan then nervously replied: "I haven't heard anything but you know you never know, these kids are busy, all my kids are busy doing different things." He then insited: "I haven't heard anything myself at the moment," while appearing taken aback by the question.
Kate then probed further, asking: "How would you feel because I'm sure you love Love Island? But I wonder if it's different when you're a dad watching a daughter on it?"
"Ahhhhh love it," Ronan said sarcastically of the ITV2 show before adding: "Errrrrrm pass. I dunno how I feel about that one. I wouldn't be able to watch!"
Missy, who Ronan shares with ex-wife Yvonne Connolly, recently appeared on Dancing With The Stars where she and her dance partner Ervinas Merfeldas became the first contestants voted off.
The new series of Love Island was teased over the weekend after host Iain Stirling has revealed it will make its comeback next month. Since it first began back in June 2015, Love Island has amassed millions of viewers who watch the contestants fall in love whilst living together in an isolated villa in Majorca.
On Saturday morning (May 14) Love Island's social media pages shared a 'public service announcement' signed from the 'OGs of love', which appeared to take a swipe at rival dating shows.
