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." 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 plunged more than 30ft from their second floor hotel suite. 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. 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. Olly's family shared photos of the star, along with tributes to their 'spiritual, gentle soul' who was 'beautiful both inside and out.' Jaymi was one of the founding members of Union J in 2011 - although the group was originally a trio known as Triple J. They auditioned for the ninth series of The X Factor, becoming Union J after fellow contestant George Shelley joined Jaymi, and bandmates JJ Hamblett and Josh Cuthbert. The foursome came fifth in the competition, which was eventually won by solo singer James Arthur - beating Rylan into fifth, in the same series as Ella Henderson. The group signed to Sony Music subsidiary RCA Records, releasing debut single 'Carry You' in June 2013. Their self-titled debut studio album followed in October 2013 and peaked at number 6 on the UK Albums Chart. They left RCA Records in April 2014 and signed with Epic Records. A second LP, named 'You Got It All – The Album' came out the following December. George left the group in 2016 before Josh walked out two years later - leaving Jaymi and JJ as a duo, before the pair officially disbanded in 2019. They announced a reunion show at London Palladium in 2022 to celebrate Union J's 10th anniversary and a comeback tour - only for Jaymi to sensationally quit ahead of the gigs. 5 Jaymi rose to fame in Union J Credit: Getty Images - Getty
