Fans might struggle to recognise this member of a beloved boyband from the 1990s as he looks quite different more than two decades since their debut in the music industry.

The singer, now in his forties - who still performs as part of the group - rose to fame as one fifth of the band, who went on to enjoy success and had several chart-topping songs.

He however no longer sports a clean-shaven look like he did earlier in his career. He instead now has a bushy beard, which features hints of grey, and has a different hairstyle. Some fans may still recognise him from their youth though.

It's Scott Robinson, now 43 - best known as a member of Five. The band also included Ritchie Neville, now 43, Sean Conlon, now 41, J Brown, now 46, and Abz Love, now 43.

They formed in 1997 and went on to achieve chart-topping success, becoming a standout band in the decade. They however later disbanded in 2001, after four years together.

Their debut album topped the charts in 1998. They released follow-up albums in 1999 and 2001. Their upcoming fourth album, Time, is set to be released later this month.

The band are known for songs like Keep On Movin' and Everybody Get Up. Other singles released by them included Let's Dance and a cover of Queen 's We Will Rock You.

Scott, Richie, Sean and Abz reunited in 2012 - a decade after the group first disbanded. Abz left the band again in 2014, but the other three are still performing together.

And aside from his work with the band, Scott is now also a presenter for Radio Essex. He fronts the drivetime show on weekday afternoons with his co-host Chris Brooks.

Now a husband and father, Scott often posts about his family on social media, including sharing selfies of himself and his wife Kerry Robinson - whom he married in 2001.

The couple are understood to have four children together. They are parents to Brennan, 21, and Kavan, 16, as well as eight-year-old twins Bobbi-Rayne and Kaydi-Rose.
