X Factor viewers will now doubt the Irish lad because of his super young looks and spiky blonde hair.
But these days, he’s rocking a smarter brunette haircut after getting a hair transplant in 2020, bulging muscles and a sleeve full of tattoos.
Eoghan and Amy have been together since 2015 and bought their first home together in 2019.

During an interview with This Morning in 2016, Eoghan spoke of his time in Simon Cowell’s showpiece: ‘I was 16 then, I was a kid, I was still in school.
“It was a big change for me, but one of the best experiences of my life.”
‘I moved back and did the whole education thing [after the show]I went to uni and now I’m back after my break, performing.’
Eoghan famously enjoyed a romance with fellow X Factor star Diana Vickers, calling their fleeting liaison “the best experience” of his life.
Simon had planned to sign Eoghan with his record label Syco after his time with The X Factor, but ultimately decided against it.
The teenager later joined RCA Records and dropped his eponymous debut album in 2009. However, it reached number 14 on the UK chart and its single 28,000 Friends reached position 96, leading to Eoghan being scrapped.
Eoghan tried to represent Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 with The Movie Song, but came in second.
