“I’m really close with my nan. I was brought up by my nan, along with my parents and my granddad.
“He’s not here anymore, but my nan’s nearly 92. I usually spend loads of time with her.
“I’ll usually stay there three nights a week, but because we’ve been working so much, I’ve just not been there the last six months.

“At least I’m able to speak to her and stuff with my dad, on FaceTime, whatever. If it was just a week, like a holiday or whatever, then fine. But a week in darkness is probably going to seem like a month.
“There’s a lot of time to get in me head and worry how she is and other things.”
When asked if he’s scared of the dark, the pop star, who is dating former EastEnders star Maisie Smith, said: “I’ve always been a lights out kind of guy.

“Even when I was a kid, I never had a door cracked. You know what I mean? With the bathroom light on. I was never like that.
“Although, the house I lived in in Salford got broken into 12 times in eight years. And a few of those times it was pitch black and we were home.
“We’d looked down and couldn’t see he was there, I suppose that was a bit sketchy.
“I think after the 12th we moved out. That was the cut point for me mum.”
Scared of the Dark airs Sunday, April 16 to Thursday, April 20 on Channel 4 at 9pm
