Jedward’s John Grimes has opened up about trolls commenting on his weight gain amid his TV comeback on Celeb Ex On The Beach.

The pop singer, 34, who found fame with twin brother Edward on The X Factor in 2009, told fans he could not wear his once iconic skinny jeans ’24/7′ after explaining his more mature physique was being compared to his trimmer pop heyday. 

John took to Instagram with an empowering post as he stripped off his sparky red sequinned shirt to show off his chest and abs. 

He penned: ‘Here I am before going into [Celebrity Ex On The Beach] I feel a lot of people that watch reality TV expect everyone to have the perfect beach body well’

‘I’ve got a natural body and I’m happy with how I am so to have people commenting about my weight and comparing me to how I was back in the day hurts I can’t wear skinny jeans and be Jepic 24/7,’

Before adding: ‘I’m just chilling on the show and being my most stripped back self so here’s to keeping it real and that should always be enough’.

John reportedly left Celeb On the Beach bosses furious after ruining the show’s new series with a huge spoiler after he confirmed his relationship on Instagram last week.

John shared with his followers that he has rekindled his relationship with his ex-girlfriend Sarah Carragher after reuniting on the show in Tenerife. 

In the trailer the couple are seen sharing a steamy kiss but their relationship was left on a cliffhanger. 

But on Friday, John posted two sweet photos of himself and Sarah standing in front of Tower Bridge at the shows launch party. 

Captioning the snap, John wrote: ‘Here’s to a new chapter and making memories with the best girl xxx.’

By going Instagram official with Sarah, the X Factor star has ruined the mystery of the series making his storyline ‘pointless’.

A source told The Sun: ‘John posting that he’s back with his ex was terrible timing as it makes his whole storyline on the show pointless.

‘Cast were asked to keep a bit of mystery around who got back with their ex and who hooked up with who so people tuned it, but clearly John was so thrilled he just went ahead and posted without thinking.’

They added: ‘Bosses are fuming but it’s not like he did it on purpose.’

Daily Mail have contacted Ex On The Beach and John’s representatives for comment.

Ahead of the new dramatic series John opened up to the Daily Mail about his relationship with Sarah. 

The singer admitted going on the reality dating show has helped himself and Sarah ‘deal with love life regrets’ as they are now in different places in life. 

Speaking to the Daily Mail about coming face-to-face with Sarah on the show, he said: ‘It was a really good feeling because we always got along even after we weren’t together.

‘She has tried dating different people and so did I, but then at the same time you don’t know all you had until they’re gone. 

‘I know it’s a classic saying, but then you realise that she’s come all the way out here [to Tenerife where the show is filmed] and she’s taken time off work to be here, so that speaks volumes for me.’

John insisted going on the dating show has helped ‘deal with his love life regrets’ and he has now gone about the relationship differently. 

‘I’m sure a lot of my exes have regrets for not doing enough to keep me around, you know, I’m a keeper’, he joked.  

‘I think going on this show dealt with those love life regrets though because it gave me the chance to be reunited with an ex and then go about it differently in the way that you possibly didn’t before.

‘So you put yourself in the right space to go, well, I’m in a different place in my life and maybe I didn’t make the moves that I needed to or put a label on it back then. So now here I am, going back differently.’
