I am betting that X Factor auditionee is wishing that he hadn’t bothered auditioning for The X Factor now.

He was seen on last Saturdays show crying about being raised in foster care and not knowing his real family, however his Dad was quick to point out in last weekends newspapers that he was in regular contact with his son.

Alan tried to defend himself in a statement last week, but today his mum and ex-girlfriend have added their stories to the mix and it does not paint a pretty picture of the singer.

“I have been a good mum to my son. I adore him but he has hurt me beyond belief,” Alan’s mum Debbie told The People.

She claims that she saw her son just a week ago before he went on holiday with friends.

“I gave him a kiss and wished him all the best,” she explained. “Then he suddenly said, ‘I might be on the telly next Saturday and it might upset you, but don’t worry about it’.”

Alan’s ex-girlfriend Alison Jennings has also spoken out about her fury when Alan told The Mirror that he may not be the biological father of their five-year-old daughter.

“I know 100 per cent she is his - and he knows it too. I will even do a DNA test to prove it,” Alison vowed. “Alan moans about how he was supposedly let down by his mum and dad. But the only person abandoned in reality is our daughter.”

An X Factor spokesman said: “Alan claims Alison once told him the child is not his.”
