Cher Lloyd looks completely different from her X Factor days in new snaps

Cher Lloyd has totally transformed from her days on The X Factor, as the singer shared some stunning new snaps on Instagram.

Cher, 29, rose to fame in 2010 when she was just 16-years-old after appearing on the talent show and wowing judge and mentor Cheryl. Sadly, struggling to cope with the pressures of fame, Cher was soon branded the 'most hated teen' in Britain.

But the mum-of-one has changed from a teen diva to a sophisticated pop star. She is now married to London hairdresser Craig Monk and the couple share daughter Delilah-Rae.

Cher often keeps fans updated on her life and has recently posted some snaps of her new look.

In one picture, Cher wore her hair tied back in a neat ponytail and accessorised her look with simple gold hoop earrings. She wore a white top and opted for an elegant makeup look.

In another, the star enjoyed some time in the sun and let her hair fall around her waist as she sat in the park and showed off her arm tattoos.

Cher has also been posting pictures with her husband and four-year-old daughter.

Cher finished in fourth place on X Factor and kicked off her career with single Swagger Jagger. Her debut album was called Sticks and Stones.

She has previously admitted she wasn't a fan favourite when she reached the final of the talent show.

"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 and Craig married in 2013 after a year of dating.

They swapped the UK for America in 2014 and Cher won a number 12 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with Want You Back. She eventually parted ways with her US label and accused them of delaying her second album.

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