Jack Keating<\/a> issued an apology after an awkward exchange during Monday night’s Love Island All Stars<\/a> final.<\/p>\n

Presenter Maya Jama<\/a> was forced to step in and encourage both Jack and Kyra Lizama to “move on” after a tense confrontation as the latest series of the reality dating show came to an end, the Mirror<\/a> reports.<\/p>\n

In a drama-filled finale – as the likes of Sean and Lucinda, Scott and Leanne, Ciaran and Samie, Yamen and Whitney and Zac and Millie all waited to learn their fate in the ITV2 competition – tempers raised as eliminated Islanders returned to the South African villa<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tempers soon flared between the former Islanders as Kyra Lizama called out Curtis Pritchard<\/a> over a video posted on Valentine’s Day<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Kyra didn’t stop there, however, as she continued to confront Dubliner Jack. While facing Jack on the other side of the villa, Kyra said: “That was not right of you to speak on my business! You can keep my name out of your mouth”, sparking applause from the crowd in attendance.<\/p>\n

This ultimately led to an apology from Jack, the son of Boyzone star Ronan Keating<\/a>. He said: “I shouldn’t have said that and looking back on it now, seeing how it came out and stuff like that.<\/p>\n

“I probably meant it in a more playful way in the moment, I apologise and I shouldn’t have said that and yeah, I f**ked up.”<\/p>\n

Love Island host Maya then intervened in an attempt to cool the tension, adding: “Okay, accountability, he’s sorry, let’s move on!” to which the audience clapped.<\/p>\n

It is believed Krya was referencing the recent comments Jack made about her and Curtis on a podcast appearance.<\/p>\n

Taking to X, formerly Twitter<\/a>, viewers were quick to share their thoughts as one person said: “Obsessed with Kyra dragging both Curtis and Jack on live tv #loveisland #loveislandallstars.”<\/p>\n

A different account posted: “Absolute f**king cinema, Kyra standing on business, clocking Curtis and Jack on live tv, had these two men gagged, give her the 50k instead #loveisland #loveislandallstars #loveislanduk.”<\/p>\n

While another viewer added: “Yes Kyra!!! #LoveIsland” with clapping emojis.<\/p>\n

Ciaran and Samie came out on top in the Love Island 2026 final, scooping \u00a350k as they were crowned winners after earning the most votes from the public.<\/p>\n
