Jedward have recently criticized their former manager Louis Walsh for his derogatory comments about them on Celebrity Big Brother. Walsh, a former X Factor judge, referred to the Irish duo as 'vile' and a 'novelty act,' sparking a public feud.
Walsh disclosed that he earned £5 million while managing Jedward from 2009 to 2013. In response, Jedward took to social media to express their discontent, labeling Walsh as a 'cold-hearted' individual who failed to offer condolences when their mother passed away in 2019.
The twins claimed they terminated their professional relationship with Walsh due to his negative behavior and accused him of attempting to exploit them. They asserted that without their late mother's support, they wouldn't have achieved their current success.
Jedward further criticized Walsh for reopening emotional wounds and vowed to defend their reputation. Their strong reaction garnered support from reality TV personality Gemma Collins, who defended the twins and praised their character.
Collins described Jedward as 'sweet, talented, polite, educated, and kind boys,' countering Walsh's disparaging remarks. The public dispute has drawn attention to the strained relationship between the twins and their former manager, highlighting the complexities of the entertainment industry.
