ITV singing contest The Voice is back on our screens and coach Olly Murs has unveiled a brand new look. The Troublemaker singer showcased a new 'ripped' physique as he flexed his muscles in a video shared on his Instagram.

"Am ready and pumped for what’s coming," he captioned the video, leaving his followers floored. Footballing star Rio Ferdinand replied to Manchester United fan Olly: "Oiiiii." And former The Only Way Is Essex star Mark Wright praised: "Some shape kid."

Former Geordie Shore star and I'm a Celebrity winner Vicky Pattison gasped: "F*****g hell mate!!! You look class! Well done." The Masked Dancer presenter Joel Dommett exclaimed: "BEAST!" And musician Jessica Agombar told him: "Ripped."

Olly's bodybuilder fiance Amelia Tank revealed that she was behind the transformation, saying: "My master plan of getting you ready for a @pureelite_official show." And he replied with a zany-face emoji: "@tankintraining who knows they ain’t ready for me."

Proud Amelia shared before and after photos showing Olly in May and again this month. "Another leg op cancelled tour and months of recovery work but look at ya now. Done me proud," she told him.

henry_tank said: "Clearly the result of countless hours of hard work - looking SOLID." rojas_reds asked: "When did that happen?" And laurenhealy_x swooned: "Jees. What a fine man."

In June the former X Factor star, 38, got engaged to Amelia, 30, while the pair were enjoying a romantic getaway. The Dear Darlin' singer took to social media to post a sweet snap of himself and Amelia sharing a hug after the romantic proposal.

The happy news came after a difficult time for the Starstruck presenter. Earlier this year he anounced that he was having to cancel his summer shows after undergoing more knee surgery.

Last August he revealed that he'd had an operation on his left leg after, while singing at a racecourse in Newmarket, Cambridgeshire, a fragment of bone became lodged in the back of his knee after he jumped into the air. In February he told fans he had to focus on recovery after having more surgery.

"I am gutted to have to write this message but unfortunately I’ve had to undergo major new knee surgery again this week been trying my best to avoid having it done but the op was needed and it went well," he updated.

"I’m recovering in hospital but it means I’m having to cancel all my summer shows this year whilst I focus on my rehab. Refunds will all be available from your point of purchase and please keep an eye out for any emails from your ticketing agent over the next few days. I’m so bloody sorry but my focus now is on recovering and I’ll keep you all updated on how I’m getting on! Stay cheeky catch you soon."

On Valetine's Day he shared his love for Amelia, who he met in the gym, as he shared a throwback photo of the couple. "How it started vs How it’s going," he wrote. "Happy Valentine’s Day darlin. Thanks for taking that Uber to the gym that morning, my life would really suck without ya x"
