Aston Merrygold used to turn down sex five times a day during his days as a boyband star in JLS.

The singer rose to fame with the group after competing on The X Factor in 2008 and they went on to have successful careers as pop stars.

He told The Sun: “I lived every 21-year-old man’s dream and was having the time of my life. That’s the only way I could put it. I got offered sex at least five times a day.

“We couldn’t walk anywhere because we would have girls throwing themselves at us.”

Aston has now finished his time with JLS after they split in 2013 and is currently competing in BBC ballroom dance contest Strictly Come Dancing.

And the singer, whose girlfriend Sarah Richards is pregnant with their first child, has vowed to not fall foul of the Strictly curse, which has seen celebrities split from their partners after appearing on the show.

He said: “I get the Strictly curse but I’m sure half the time it comes from a seed that gets planted somewhere from a fifth party and becomes embedded. Like someone reads a comment on Twitter and goes, ‘Oh, what have I done?’

“But not this year. I think everyone is more than happy and concentrating on there dancing.”
