    Olly Murs has changed "a lot" since becoming a father of two

    The Troublemaker singer welcomed his second baby, son Albert, with his wife Amelia Tank last month and admits that he is "constantly worried" now he has expanded his brood


    Olly - who also has daughter Madison, 18 months, with Amelia - exclusively told BANG Showbiz at the 2025 Variety Club Showbusiness Awards on Sunday (19.10.25): "It's changed me a lot, definitely!

    "You all of a sudden - I don't know what it is. It's like, you unlock this, 'Right, I'm now a dad.' So you start thinking of things differently.

    "You want to protect your family. You're on your guard the whole time. Don't trust anyone. You're out in supermarkets. You're just constantly worried.

    "I remember my mum telling me, 'You're gonna be constantly worried for the rest of your life now.' But it's a great worry. And I'm loving seeing them grow and teach them new things."

    Olly explained that Madison "hasn't been affected" by the attention on Albert following his birth.

    Asked if caring for the two tots had been tricky, the 41-year-old star said: "I mean, it hasn't really been tricky, because, obviously, there's two of us, and there's two children.

    "Maddie's been with me, if not with me, she's with her mum. And then if I've got Albert. I mean, it's literally, we're man marked the whole time.

    "And you know what? Madison hasn't really been affected by it in any shape or form. She hasn't been jealous or she's just like, embracing the fact there's another baby in the room, which is great, and what we're really excited about is them just growing together and hopefully getting on really well."

    Olly explained that he particularly enjoys getting to cuddle his baby boy.

    The former X Factor star said of Albert: "He's doing fantastic. My wife's doing great. It's beautiful. It really is. And I'm getting lots of cuddles.

    "When you've had a really stressful day and you've not had the best time, and then you all of a sudden, you get that beautiful hug from your baby boy. It's pretty special."

    Olly also revealed that he is open to his children following him into the world of showbiz.

    The Dance with Me Tonight hitmaker said: "Definitely! Madison, already, she's got a little voice coming so, who knows?"
