Shane, who has always shaved his head, has now grown out his dark hair. Earlier this week he appeared on This Morning and left fans stunned with his new look. Admitting his new look also confused The Good Ship Murder's crew and co-stars, Shayne said: "Nobody recognised me [while filming] because of my hair, because I used to have a bald head."
Host Alison Hammond gushed she "loved" the singer's new look, but viewers weren't convinced with some saying Shayne looked like a extra from period drama, Bridgerton. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one said: "Shayne looks so different to his Aidan on Corrie days," while a third suggested: "Could be a double for Bridgerton." The X Factor singer had been enjoying a break from the spotlight after getting engaged to former Hollyoaks star Sophie Austin.
The couple share six-year-old daughter Willow May and son Reign Thomas Austin, who turned one in June. Yet Shayne is keeping busy as The Mirror exclusively revealed Shayne is ready to return to music and impress his kids. He has been laying down tracks in the studio and plans to launch a comeback tour. Earlier this year, he shared: "This year is going to be a big year for me. I’m releasing new music, headlining my first solo tour in 11 years and starring in my first lead role in a big TV series.
"It just feels like now is the right time to focus on my music career and show people what I have been working on. I see it as more of a return than a comeback. I’m 39 this year and in such a beautiful place – I am engaged to an incredible woman and have two beautiful kids. I want them to see me on stage and to see what Daddy can do."
