James Jordan stuns fans with long hair as he looks unrecognisable holding baby Ella

James Jordan forced fans to double take as his completely unrecognisable appearance left them confused.

The former Strictly Come Dancing star, 42, welcomed his first child - a daughter named Ella - with wife Ola earlier this year.

But it seems as though dad life has taken a toll on James, as he appeared to look completely different from his usual groomed self.

A tired looking James shared a heartwarming snap of him holding baby Ella on his chest, but it fans seemed to be distracted by James' wild hair.

Sharing the adorable snap on Instagram, he jokingly penned: "Anyone that says 'Having a baby doesn't age you' is lying. #Fatherhood#wouldntchangeitfortheworld."

Following James' hilariously honest post, fans rushed to Twitter to comment on the new look.

One fan penned: "I think it’s the hair not the baby lol."

A second agreed, writing: "James you need to get a hair cut and go back to that smart man we loved on dancing on ice , but still love the photo of you both !!!"

Another wrote: "Good lord man, cut your hair."

While a fourth added: "That hair is ageing you lol don’t blame Ella!"

James and Ola became parents in February after a heartbreaking fertility battle.

Doctors warned Ola she only had a 50/50 chance she would get pregnant, but Ola conceived after her first round of IVF treatment in June 2019.

She previously told  Hello!  magazine: "I would love to be a mum with all my heart and I just thought it would happen naturally.

"James is also desperate to have babies and I just wish it could have happened by now. That's the one gift I would love to give him.

"I guess I just thought, like most women, that I could choose when the time was right for me; that I could have my career and then have a baby when it felt right. But for us it just hasn’t happened like that."
