X Factor finalist Chris Leonard has revealed his brother is hoping to watch his live show debut – from the Lebanon.
The Meath singer’s sibling Stephen is on peace-keeping duties with the Irish Army, but is desperate to see his big moment.
He said: “I know he’s trying to look up ways to see if he can get the show there.
“He’s hoping to be able to watch it on the internet. He doesn’t want to miss it.”
