Former X Factor teen star unrecognisable as he announces partner expecting fourth child

Eoghan Quigg was just 16 years old when he first appeared on screens in the 2008 series of The X Factor. He made it to the semi finals in the show and is now a radio presenter in Ireland.

The former teen star, who is now 30 years old, has announced he's expecting a second baby with his girlfriend, in a series of cute family videos and snaps on Instagram. Eoghan lives in Derry with his partner Amy, their baby daughter Emmy Belle, who was born in April 2021, and Amy's two children from a previous relationship.

Eoghan looks very different from his X Factor days. Gone is his spikey and messy blonde and brown hair for a much older and sophisticated slicked-back look. Eoghan now also sports a beard and some impressive tattoos.
