It’s February 17th, which can only mean one thing – it’s Dean Gibbons’ birthday! The former Hometown singer from Ireland turns twenty-three today.
Dean is best known for being one sixth of Irish boyband Hometown. The band had two number one singles in Ireland. These were ‘Where I Belong’ and ‘Cry for Help’. They also supported The Vamps, McBusted and Olly Murs on tour over the past two years. Unfortunately, the band recently decided to part ways to focus on their own ambitions. We wish them all the best of luck and cannot wait to see what they get up to next. It already looks like there may be some exciting things in store.
To celebrate Dean’s birthday, we have put together some of our favourite Instagram posts from the man himself.
1. First of all, here is Dean out walking with his Granny – we love the relationship Dean has with his Granny.
