Jedward looked in good spirits on Wednesday as they headed out on a stroll in North London, following their public feud with Louis Walsh.
The identical twins, John and Edward Grimes, 32, appeared to have momentarily forgotten their anger, as they walked through Hampstead.
The Irish pop duo both sported matching black baseball from famous bands, with Edward opting for a My Chemical Romance cap and John choosing a Guns N’ Roses one.
Edward looked stylish, donning a navy blue varsity jacket emblazoned with a ‘J’, and skinny black jeans and leather boots.
While John cut an edgier figure in ribbed jeans and a leather jacket, teamed with casual trainers and a plain black shirt.

The brothers graciously stopped to chat to a passing fan on their stroll, after picking up a coffee.
Jedward seemed cheerful on their outing, after celebrating Louis’ fourth place finish in the Celebrity Big Brother final on Friday.
After the result was revealed, they tweeted: ‘F**k Yes Louis is not the winner #CBBUK Mission Complete. I think it’s time for a celebration roast and a dip in the hot tub’.
The twins had branded the music manager, 71, an ‘evil manipulator’ after he called them ‘vile’ on the ITV show.
Louis was previously Jedward’s manager between 2009 and 2013, after they shot to stardom on the X Factor.
But during his time in the house, he claimed that the ‘novelty’ act were ‘vile’ while boasting they secured him a lot of money, as he told Coronation Street ‘s Colson Smith they ‘made him £5m’.
When the scenes aired, Jedward were at former TOWIE star Gemma Collins’ home, where the trio hit back on social media with a fiery tirade.
Gemma quickly jumped to their defence on Instagram as she admitted she ‘couldn’t believe’ what was being said.

She posted: ‘Shocked to see what was said about my boys. They are the sweetest, talented, polite, educated, kind boys I’ve ever met hence why they are always in my company!! TEAM JEDWARD. #Jedward’.
While the boys insisted that ‘justice would be served’, as they launched into a scathing tirade on their own social media.
They accused the former X Factor judge of being a ‘cold hearted b****d who didn’t send flowers after their mother’s death’.
One of the tweets shared by the brothers claimed: ‘Louis Walsh is an evil manipulator who forced us into an office to pay £70k from our bank account to one of his own PR workers.’
Another said: ‘Louis Walsh b****d and talked about us to our best friend Tara Reid and then we fired him!’
A third read: ‘Louis Walsh is a cold hearted b*****d who didn’t even send us flowers when our mom died.’
A final tweet read: ‘Louis reopened these wounds all by himself being spiteful and disrespectful we aren’t going to have our character taken. Justice will be served.’
Fellow former X Factor contestants also leapt to Jedward’s defence after Louis’s comments, hitting out at him on X.

Katie Waissel, who has previously claimed that her stint on the show back in 2010 ‘ruined her life’, accused Louis of being part of a ‘manipulative and coercive’ environment behind the scenes.
In an impassioned tweet, the show star stood up for Jedward as she doubled down on her claims that a public inquiry should be launched into the programme.
Katie shared: ‘@planetjedward firstly, having met you both personally, I can unequivocally state that you are by no means ‘vile’ , if anything you are both absolutely the contrary to this! I stand firmly behind you in your corner, always…
‘What I wish for the general public to take from this, is that Louis Walsh, former XFactor judge, has confirmed and revealed on national television, the tip of the iceberg of abuse, manipulation and coercion that went on behind the scenes on the XFactor, of which myself and many others have spoken publicly about.
‘By stating he (Louis Walsh) made £5million off of Jedward, immediately after calling them ‘vile’ and stating that they made ‘great tv’, in itself, only but further confirms how the show was disturbingly manufactured and manipulated.
‘This is not the first time a former judge has disclosed contradictory and manipulated tactics to secure contestants, all in the while, completely unbeknownst to the contestants themselves.
‘All contestants were lead to believe they entered a singing competition, as did the general public.
‘There are serious and significant issues that need to be addressed, and further remedied, by all parties involved in the making, producing and broadcasting of the now cancelled show, XFactor, as well as a public inquiry to be held, to ensure the future of music and television is protected through their findings, to update policy, regulation, and legislation. #CBBUK #LouisWalsh #Jedward [sic].’

As one one follower suggested they would like to see Katie and Jedward enter the Big Brother house to confront Louis, Katie revealed she had already approached them, tweeting: ‘I verbatim asked production to give me just five minutes.’
Steve Brookstein, who won the inaugural season of X Factor in 2004 with Simon Cowell as his mentor, also didn’t hold back with his criticism of Louis, claiming he had now been vindicated in branding the star a ‘c***’.
He tweeted on Tuesday: ’20 years ago I said Louis Walsh was a c*** and only now people are realising it. Better late than never.’
In 2016, Louis described the duo as ‘the most embarrassing thing to happen to him’, despite boasting of making millions after Jedward’s first two albums went platinum in Ireland, while they also represented their country at Eurovision in 2011 and 2012.
Jedward hit back at the time, with Edward saying: ‘I think we are the most financially beneficial act of his career in the last 10 years.’
John added: ‘I don’t think he took us under his wing. I think we were already flying and he was like, “Oh I think I want a part of that”.
‘I think he got old. It’s like someone saying behind your back and you are like, ‘wait, I didn’t know there was a problem’.’
Meanwhile in 2021, the twins described Louis as a ‘two-faced b**** who uses powers for his own benefit.’

Ironically Louis defended the brothers during The X Factor in 2009 when Simon Cowell called them ‘vile’ – the same term he used in the CBB house.
He argued that they were ‘innocent children’ at the time, when Simon hissed that they were ‘vile little creatures’.
Elsewhere in the Jedward biography, Louis continues to fawn over his charges, writing: ‘You either have that special something or you don’t and I thought that they had it in spades… they are nice to everybody, from the people on the street to the people in the record company – and that’s why they have so many fans.
‘Everyone wants to work with them because they are just so hard-working and genuinely nice.
‘John and Edward make the people that they meet smile and they make them feel special – that is their secret and that is what sets them apart from a lot of people.
‘Their attitude is 100 per cent positive all of the time and that is why they are where they are now.’
He said: ‘They never complain and they just want to work, work, work – how would I ever regret taking them on?
‘The boys are a manager’s dream and they are having the time of their lives… I wish every act was like that and then there would be no trouble: Jedward are the best-behaved group I have ever came across in 30 years in the business.’
In 2016, Louis described the duo as ‘the most embarrassing thing to happen to him’, despite boasting of making millions after Jedward’s first two albums went platinum in Ireland, while they also represented their country at Eurovision in 2011 and 2012 (pictured in 2012)
