Taking to Instagram, Jaymi typed out a message to his followers to reveal he would no longer be performing as originally planned. Jaymi said: "Guys I'm really sorry for those who were coming to see me but for personal reasons I'm unable to perform at Worthing Pride tomorrow. "I really hope you understand I never cancel unless it absolutely necessary." Read More on Jaymi Jaymi did not add any further details on why he had pulled out of the performance at the LGBTQ+ event. Last year, Jaymi's world came crashing down following the death of his partner, Olly Marmon, 33, who Olly is understood to have fallen through a small open second floor window onto a footpath in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire. Guests at the Hind Hotel rushed outside to try to save Olly but the stylist was later pronounced dead at the scene. Most read in Showbiz A source close to the pop star's family said the tragedy was "unbelievable" at the time. Union J star Jaymi had been in a relationship with hairstylist Olly since 2009 and they got engaged in 2014. X Factor star's fiance suffered head injury after falling from hotel window just weeks before wedding, inquest hears Emergency services rushed to the three-star Hind Hotel in Wellingborough, Northampton, after Olly fell at around 11.30pm.

Jaymi was one of the founding members of Union J in 2011 - although the group was originally a trio known as Triple J.

Well-backed Delacroix wins Coral-Eclipse thriller after ‘mind-blowing' ride from Ryan Moore
RYAN MOORE showed just why he is considered the best jockey on the planet with an epic winning ride on Delacroix in the Coral-Eclipse. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong during the race, but he somehow managed to run down the favourite Ombudsman in the final strides. Advertisement 1 Delacroix (right) wins a thriller in the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown Credit: PA And, judged by the deafening noise that erupted from the stands as he flew home for a last-gasp win, plenty of bets were landed in the process. Aidan O'Brien, who has just the eight Eclipse wins to his name, was just as dumbfounded as the rest of us as the well-punted 3-1 second favourite dramatically surged from nowhere to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. He said: 'I couldn't believe it, they went hard and then they steadied it, and then they went again. Ryan kept calm and came with one go at the leader, it was a masterful ride, it was mind-blowing. 'He said his plan changed about four times during the race, I thought he'd try to lead but it didn't work out and he ended up where he did. Advertisement 'You leave it up to him, he knows the horses, there is always a Plan A, B and C, I'd say that was Plan Z.' It was Plan Z because the original thought had been that Delacroix, who flopped as 2-1 favourite in the Derby last month, would try to grab the early lead in the six-runner field. But he ended up being shuffled back through the pack as French horse Sosie and outsider Hotazhell took it up, and the winner was running up a blind alleyway as they rounded the bend for home. And then, just as he was getting rolling, stablemate Camille Passarro nipped up on his outer and boxed him in, costing him precious momentum and room at a crucial point in the race. Advertisement Most read in Horse Racing Comment Exclusive Moore managed to angle him out, gather him together and unleash him with a sweeping run to catch 6-4 jolly Ombudsman was a ridiculously impressive win. It was the sort of escape act that would have made Harry Houdini proud. Moore said: 'He began OK, nobody really wanted to make the running and it was a bit messy. 'William (Buick) wanted the same position as me and he was on a bigger, stronger, older horse so I had to give way. Advertisement 'Ombudsman got first run on me but Delacroix is a very good horse with a mighty turn of foot, and he quickened up really well. 'It was a steadily run race for that class of horse, but his change of gear made the difference, it got him out of trouble. 'He was the only horse in the race who hadn't won a Group 1 but he has threatened to for a long time, he is a big, strong, beautiful horse so it is great to get this one.' Usually the master of understatement, that's about as effusive as Moore is going to get. This must be a good horse. Advertisement It was a brilliant race and the good news is he will likely meet Ombudsman again for round two at York in next month's Juddmonte International. That is very likely to be the runner-up's target as a philosophical John Gosden took the defeat on the chin. He said: 'I did warn people beforehand it could be a messy race and that's how it turned out, but he has run a brilliant race. 'We got caught a little bit wide and the winner has just come with one strong run and done us, but that's racing. Advertisement 'I don't think we were helped out by the tight gap between this race and the Prince Of Wales's at Ascot, it is only 17 days, so when you consider that he's run a great race.'

As well as the Avenatdor McGregor also owns a lime green Lamborghini as well as an army green version and he also keeps a bright white Lamborghini Huracan barged on his holiday villa on the continent. And like father—like-son it seems, as Conor's dad Tony is also the proud owner of a bright orange Lamborghini Huracan, the identical model as then one driven by Diojo Jota. RYAN TUBRIDY Pic: Brian McEvoy While Ryan Tubridy is more than a tootler-about-town than a speed-freak, the former Toy Show host did look like all his Christmases had come at once when he jumped behind the wheel of an orange Lamborghini Huracan for the 2013 launch of the annual Cannonball Road Trip. KERRY KATONA Pic: Instagram/Kerry Katona Well she may not be Irish, but she's Irish adjacent!
