This Morning host Rylan Clark-Neal left fans stunned after sharing a 10- year-old photograph of himself on Instagram in which he looks totally unrecognisable.
The throwback snap was taken in 2009 and shows Rylan posing on a beach in Ibiza.
The popular presenter, who shot to fame on The X Factor in 2012, captioned the snap: “10 years ago me just did his first live set at @mamboibiza . What an honour. 2009-2019 x”.
The picture shows Rylan dressed in a low-cut blue T-shirt and jeans, with his bleached blonde hair styled into a quiff.
The star is also seen sporting a blond goatee in the decade-old photograph.
Rylan’s throwback photo sent shockwaves through his fan base, with many commenting on his dramatic transformation 10 years on.
The presenter has admitted having “bits and bobs” of cosmetic surgery done over the years, and has spent more than £25,000 on veneers for his teeth.
And while he was born with red hair, he’s been dying it a variety of colours since his teens.
His throwback picture was flooded with comments within minutes, with many encouraging him to lighten his hair again.
One wrote: “Omg Rylan you look gorge with that hair x”, while another said: “You could go light-haired again… so handsome.”
Other comments came for the star’s famous teeth, with many saying his smile was perfect before he had dental treatments.
One fan wrote: “Why did u have veneers - your teeth looked absolutely fine as they were?”, while another said: “Absolutely nothing wrong with his teeth to begin with”.
It’s not the first time Rylan has treated us to a pre-telly transformation throwback.
Earlier this year, he shared a snap of himself from 2007 posing alongside Richard Newman and Lea Walker at the Queen of Nations Beauty Pageant.
Dressed in a white shirt and jeans, Rylan looked virtually unrecognisable without his trademark tan, dark beard, pretty pout and gleaming pearly whites we have all become used to.
