Cher Lloyd looks worlds away from her X Factor days in stunning new snap as she reveals arm tattoos

CHER Lloyd looks worlds away from her X Factor days in stunning new snaps on Instagram.

She rose to fame in 2010 aged just 16 when she came fourth in Simon Cowell's talent show.

The Malvern-born beauty has transformed from teen to a perfectly-preened popstar.

She won chart success when her debut single Swagger Jagger was realsed in 2011 and she moved to the US.

These days the Malvern-born star is mum to daughter Delilah-Rae and often shares snaps of her quaint life.

The pop star shared new pictures of her having fun in the sun.

In one snap Cher wears her long hair tied back into a neat bun and accessorises with simple gold earrings.

In another the star allows her hair to fall around her waist as she sits in a park and shows off her arm tattoos.

She has been all loved up with Craig Monk, who she married in 2013 after a short romance.

Cher finished fourth in the talent show's seventh series and kicked off her solo career with single Swagger Jagger and debut album Sticks and Stones.

Cher admitted she wasn't a fan favourite when she reached the X Factor final in 2010.

“I was a beast! Everyone hated me," Cher told Fabulous magazine back in 2012.

"I was young and foolish. Part of me was trying to show I was strong enough to do it, and then I think it all got too much for me.

"I was angry with the way I was being edited and because of that I turned into this horrible person, with a terrible attitude.”

Cher swapped the UK for the States in 2014 and won a number 12 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with Want You Back.

But she split from her US label, accusing them of delaying her second album after her subsequent release only reached the top 70,

Cher moved back to the UK and welcomed daughter Delilah Rose in 2018.
