What To Know

  • Belle Hassan is a contestant on Love Island: All Stars Season 3.
  • On Day 2, she mentioned that she has a famous dad.
  • She’s shared that her dad played a role in her being cast on Love Island.

Though it’s not as common on Love Island USA, the original Love Island has been known to throw a nepo baby or two into the villa, so it makes sense that the franchise’s all-star spinoff should include a few. In the lead-up to Love Island: All Stars Season 3, most of the conversation revolved around Jack Keating joining the cast. Not because of anything that happened during Love Island Season 8 — which he only appeared in for the Casa Amor segment — but because of his famous dad.

The topic of Jack’s dad, aka Ronan Keating from the UK boyband Boyzone, has predictably come up in the villa. On Day 2, when Leanne Amaning asked Belle Hassan if she’d spoken to Jack, the latter mentioned that she could relate to having a famous parent. “He does like a lot of British films and stuff,” the Season 5 alum said when Leanne asked for more details. “I don’t know if you would’ve seen him.”

It’s been over half a decade since Belle’s first Love Island go-around, so you may have forgotten who her dad is. Whether that’s the case or All Stars is your first introduction to Belle, Swooon has everything you need to know about Tamer Hassan — and his involvement in his daughter’s Love Island journey — below.

Who is Belle Hassan’s dad?

Back in 2019, Belle revealed that her reality TV career got started because of her dad. “I had a conversation with my dad, and he asked me if I wanted to do the show,” she told Closer Online. “I didn’t really think much of it, and before I knew it, one of his friends [got me in contact] with someone at ITV, and then I did the audition and started the application process.”

So, how does he have that pull? Tamer has acted in British classics like The Football Factory and The Business, which Belle noted are his most famous flicks. She also acted alongside her dad in both, per IMDb. In an August 2025 Instagram video, Belle teased that they have a joint project in the works, explaining that her dad is her “biggest fan.”

The 57-year-old actor also had roles in Batman Begins, Kick-Ass, and Snatch. Game of Thrones fans might recognize him for playing Khal Forzho, one of the Dothraki clan members, in 2016. Most recently, Hassan competed on Celebrity MasterChef in 2024. He appears to have taken up DJing in the years since, per his social media.
