Kevin McDaid is known as one of the members of the British boy band V, alongside Antony Brant, Aaron Buckingham, Mark Harle, and Leon Pisani. V was founded in 2003, and eventually disbanded in 2005.
McDaid was born on March 7, 1984 in Nigeria, and he was raised in England in Newcastle upon Tyne. At present, he is working as a fitness coach, and is also the co-owner of Jekyll + Wild, which is a nurseries and gardening store in Clapham Old Town.
Moreover, McDaid is gay, and he was previously in a long-term relationship with Westlife member Mark Feehily. The two of them got engaged in 2010, but decided to eventually part ways.
In 2017 interview with Attitude, the personal trainer opened up about sex, expressing:
“I think gay men can get a hard time when it comes to sex. I think there is a time and a place for sex to be taken seriously and understood. I also think that between consenting adults, sex should be whatever they wish it to be. Sex is fun, as long as it’s safe.”
Aside from being a fitness coach, business co-owner and boy band member, McDaid is a photographer as well, and not to mention a hands down EXPERT at thirst trapping. It’s also worth noting that he does it with barely any imagination needed… 😉

Well, I guess even Instincts minimal research can teach me something new – at least about UK/Brit pop music. I always thought WILL YOUNG was the gay (and former) Westlife member but it turns out to be this guy’s partner from a decade ago! So, there’s that.
It’s interesting that in most stories about Fehely, McDaid is called a ‘fashion photographer’ but I’d still be a lot more interested in hearing him sing. I discovered Young about a decade ago when an (older) friend of mine asked me to burn him some CDs with new music he might like, for his now year round home in Northern California’s redwoods – as there are no real radio stations out there other than very Top 40 commercial radio or dinosaur rock ‘classics’ and ‘oldies.’ Anyways, Young has a good voice, I’m not fond of his choice is songs or type of pop, but good voice so I saved some of his albums for myself and burned a few of his songs for my friend, who became a Will Young fan before he passed away last year.
I know some of the music I have enjoyed the most in the past few years (such as Year and Years early songs) have turned me on to queer musicians, which is a neat thing that some sites now cover music and it’s not all just pop divas. So always a good thing.
