Remember Eoghan Quigg? He looks so different now we’d hardly recognise him

Lil heartthrob.

Who remembers Eoghan Quigg’s rise to fame on the X Factor? The 16-year-old who stole our hearts when he took to the stage of the talent show has left his singing career behind for pastures new.

The 26-year-old is now a presenter on Q Radio – hosting his own showbiz radio show which he started last year. Q Radio is based in Northern Ireland with their head office in Belfast. His show called Sunday Early Riser is on every Sunday between the hours of 2-7am.

And although Eoghan isn’t still chasing the X Factor dream, that doesnt mean he doesn’t look back on that era with the fondest memories. In his latest Instagram post, a little boy holds a mug that packs plenty of nostalgia – images of Eoghan in his competition hayday with the caption:

“You either really like that cup of tea or you’re mocking my 2008 ‘Vote for me‘ smile.”
