Inside JLS' Aston Merrygold's stunning home with wife and kids away from London

It's no secret that Aston Merrygold has enjoyed a successful career in the spotlight, after shooting to fame on The X Factor in 2008 with JLS.

The 35-year-old singer has appeared on several TV shows, launched a solo career and is currently touring with his boyband across the UK. Away from the limelight, Aston tied the knot with his long-term girlfriend Sarah Richards last year. The couple, who are parents to sons Grayson and Macaulay, are expecting their third child in 2024.

Aston and Sarah's beautiful family home in Hertfordshire has cropped up on Instagram several times in the past few years, revealing their modern tastes and spacious quarters. Inside, the couple have created a cosy yet airy lobby with white walls, shiny wooden flooring and high ceilings. The welcoming hallway leads directly to a lounge area, that has been elegantly decorated in a monochrome theme with geometric design on the back wall.

A huge white corner sofa adorned by grey cushions is the main feature of the sitting room, with the rest of the room painted black for a cosy feel. The kitchen, which also serves as a dining area, echoes this monochromatic theme, with dark wooden cupboards and a large glossy black island. The stylish marble flooring is also visible, along with bifold doors that open out onto their lush garden.

Sarah has even given fans a glimpse of her bedroom, which is again painted white with black furnishings including a charcoal leather bed frame and an antique-style Tiffany lamp. She also has her own walk-in wardrobe, filled a rack of fashionable clothes and a plush grey stool.

Sarah and Aston's sons Grayson, five, and three-year-old Macaulay, enjoy a playroom equipped with a TV, a chalkboard and a large mirror. Another view of the recreational space reveals thick grey carpets and a white chest of drawers, which are likely crammed with the boys' toys, and a fancy-looking exercise bike.

Outside, Sarah and Aston have a large garden with a round netted trampoline and an impressive climbing frame, complete with a slide, swings and a tree house. A high fence and towering trees surround the grassy yard for extra privacy and safety, ensuring that the famous family can relax in their own outdoor space without the fear of being disturbed.

Aston originally hails from Peterborough, where he and his six siblings were raised by their Irish mother and Jamaican father. Despite now being extremely well-off, the musician has always been savvy when it comes to his finances.

"With more money, does become more problems. You can live a lavish lifestyle, but that's a lot of lavish bills....nothing is free," he told Rob Moore in 2018.
