(METP-13-07-10PF105) Picture: Paul FranksBy CATE MUNROPublished on Wednesday 14 July 2010 12:21THREE number ones, a MOBO award and four-times platinum album, JLS headed by Peterborough's Aston Merrygold have taken the music industry by storm - but fame has not changed him a bit according to his siblings.With Aston set to perform in a homecoming gig at the city's Embankment on Sunday, his younger brother and sister, Conor (17) and Courtney (16), have spoken of their brother's success, this weekend's concert, and how his rapid rise to stardom has affected the family.Courtney said: "We're a really close family and when Aston comes home everything's normal again. It's not all about JLS when Aston's at home, he's always interested in what everyone else is doing."Conor added: "Fame hasn't gone to his head at all."When the former Jack Hunt School pupil was catapulted to fame in 2008 after JLS became runners-up in the X Factor, some may have thought the older Merrygold sibling would be the object of envy for his brother and sister.But Conor said: "We've never been jealous of Aston. We all have our own things going on and to be honest, I have thought he was famous since he was on TV in the Fun Sun Factory. It's something you get used to."Both of them are very proud of their brother's achievements but admit to missing doing "normal" things with him which are not possible any more because of security.Courtney said: "It has been difficult at times when we've been out for meals as a family. We really appreciate all the support but sometimes people can be a bit intrusive when we're just trying to have family time."Both siblings have also had their own brush with fame as a result of Aston's success.Reluctant Courtney was approached by a screaming JLS fan demanding her autograph and photo at a concert at the Hammersmith Apollo, while Conor is starting to get recognised in his own right after working backstage and travelling with JLS on their tour earlier this year. He has also being doing work experience for the band's management company, Modest Management.He admits to relishing the female attention. He said: "I was in London recently for my friend's birthday and some girl recognised me as I got off the tube. It was weird but I enjoyed it."As excitement mounts ahead of Sunday's concert, there is little doubt that Aston performing on home soil means a lot to the family. Conor said: "I've seen Aston perform many times before but it's different in Peterborough. JLS have a lot of hardcore fans but the reaction of the home fans will be great."Hope this helps :)
