Aston Merrygold wants to start a boy and girl band of JLS Juniors as he welcomes son

Aston Merrygold has just welcomed his newborn son but he's already thinking about how the little one can follow in his musical footsteps.

The singer 32, is hoping that baby Macaulay will join the rest of the JLS boys' children in forming a JLS Juniors band.

Macaulay is the seventh baby born to the four band members, with Marvin and Rochelle Humes' impending arrival set to be the eighth.

Speaking to OK! magazine, Aston's fiancée Sarah Lou Richards said: "We need a tour bus now just to take all the kids out. I am excited to get them all dancing.

He added: "We have a boyband and a girlband now."

Aston and Sarah are also parents to two-year-old Grayson.

Marvin and Rochelle share Alaia-Mai, seven, and Valentina, three, with one on the way.

JB Gill and his wife are parents to Chloe, six, and Chiara, two.

Oritsé Williams is dad to son Omre, five, with his ex girlfriend AJ Azari.

JLS are due to go on a reunion tour in November and Aston admits things will be different this time around now they have kids.

He added: "The idea of it is great. We haven't been on the road together for such a long time, and we're ridiculously excited.

"But we know it's not going to be the same for us, especially with Marv's baby due around then.

"It's just going to be different but we're so happy to be working together again. Some people might want to be home more than away now.

"The girls are worse off, because we're going to get more sleep!"
