Ortisé is best known for being a member of the band JLS, which came to fame on the 2008 series of The X Factor.
The band finished the show as runner up to winner Alexandra Burke, but went on to worldwide fame and success afterward.
Ortisé entered The X Factor in order help cure his mum’s illness, who is disabled from MS.
Ortisé had been caring for his mum since the age of 12 and hoped to make enough money to fund research into the condition.
