Kelli Young family consists of four members. Kelli Young and her husband Iain James have two twin kids.
Originally hailing from London, England, Young is best known for being a singer. Young’s most prominent role was as not only a member but the lead singer of the British pop group Liberty X, which she was a part of from 2001 to 2007.
The group was a product of the reality television show Popstars where Young and her four members Jessica Taylor, Michelle Heaton, Tony Lundon, and Kevin Simm were the runner-ups. While the winners of the show formed a group called Hear’Say, the five teamed up as Liberty X.
The group released three albums from 2002 to 2005 called Thinking It Over, Being Somebody, and X. Liberty X first broke up in 2007, then came back together for a series of reunion shows in 2013 and 2014.
Since 2017 Taylor, Young, and Heaten have toured as a trio mainly around music festival circuits and pride events.
Kelli Young Husband
Kelli Young husband Iain James is a singer and songwriter from Bristol. Also known as Sparkx, James was once a part of the British boyband Triple 8.
In fact, the singer got his name Sparkx while he was a member of the group. Triple 8 is best known for having two successful singles named Knockout and Give Me A Reason. The songs charted at number 8 and 9 on the UK charts, but sadly the group never released an album while James was in it due to disputes with their label, Polydor.
James left the group in 2003 and was eventually replaced by Stewart Macintosh in 2005. Since leaving the group, the singer has turned into a songwriter for other artists. Though he has worked with a number of artists like One Direction, Olly Murs, and Leona Lewis, James is best known for writing many songs by the British girl group Little Mix.
Some of the group’s most popular songs like Wings, DNA, and their mega-hit Shout Out To My Ex were all co-written by James.
Kelli Young And Iain James Married Life
Kelli Young and Iain James have been married since September 1, 2011. The couple has managed to keep their lives private throughout their career.
One of the reasons why it has been so easy for them to do so is because James had largely stepped out of the spotlight by the time they got together in 2006 and Young too would follow suit a year after their relationship started and remain out of the spotlight for over a decade, with intermittent appearances here and there.
As such, much of their relationship has been shrouded in mystery. Though Young is back in the spotlight now due to touring with her group since 2017, during the decade they were apart, the most she did was perform a cover of Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas Is You.
As for James, he has been too busy behind the production boards to talk about his relationship in public or even on social media. The most that has been dug up about their love affair is by gossip completists who want to know what happened to the members of either groups since their dissolution.
Kelli Young Children
Kelli Young children are twin boys that the singer had with spouse Iain James in 2012. The couple has been intensely private about their kids.
Not even the children’s names are known and neither of the couples has posted a single picture of them online aside from their backs being seen on Kelli Young’s cover banner on her Twitter account. However, both Young and James have talked about being parents, and even how proud they are of their children.
Based solely on that picture, we can surmise that the children take more towards their mother than their father as they share her ebony skin despite the father being a caucasian. Since they are twins, we can assume that they look similar.
The most that the singer has talked about her children in media is mentioning that she gained a lot of baby fat when she was pregnant with them, and that she worked very hard to lose that fat in order to be able to perform with her two current group-mates.
Kelli Young Parents
Kelli Young parents include her mother who is of Bajan ancestry. Young was born to her parents on April 7, 1982, in Derby, England.
Not much is known about Young’s parents except her mother’s ancestry. Being Bajan means her mother is affiliated with the nation of Barbados, which is an island in the Caribbean.
