It took about two seconds for Belle to remind everyone she has a famous dad on Love Island All Stars, but who actually is he? Here’s everything you need to know.
She dropped the bombshell in a conversation with Leanne. They were talking about Jack’s dad being Boyzone’s Ronan Keating, and Bella said she can relate because her dad is famous too.
Leanne had no idea, and Belle revealed her dad is an actor who has been in a lot of “gangster films”, but that’s as far as the conversation went. It turns out, her dad is a pretty big deal.

Belle and her dad have always been super close
Speaking to The Tab about her dad before going on to All Stars, Belle said: “My dad is so supportive, but he knows what Belle is like when she’s single. I fancy everyone. My dad is honestly my best friend, and one of the girls.
“He’ll be excited about the gossip on the show, but nervous about me being let loose. Before the show, he told me to just be myself, have fun and he’ll be here waiting afterwards.”
When she went on Love Island the first time around, his favourite episode was the heart rate challenge, which is slightly strange considering she was in her underwear. I think she means because she stepped out of her comfort zone. “He was actually so proud of me,” Belle said.
