How has your childhood crush aged?

[Wannabefarmer]

David Duchovny was my first crush 😍 I had posters of him and the X Files all over my bedroom. I've just started watching Aquarius on Netflix and oh my god, he's still gorgeous! I actually think he looks better, but that may be because I've aged 25 years as well and am no longer into men in their 20s!

Mine was Phillip Schofield...still looks ok, but I feel like he becomes more smug and insufferable with every passing year, I turn over if I see him now!

Mine was Peter Egan from Ever Decreasing Circles.

I have seen him recently in Unforgotten and also Afterlife where he is reunited with Penelope Wilton!

Still a good looking bloke, technically old enough to be my Dad as he was born a year before my Mum. Dh doesn't understand it

Mark Owen. Not good.

Aww, I loved Peter Egan too! He's only 30 years older

Sean Astin. I loved him in The Goonies. So cute! And then when he was in Stranger Things, I thought yes, I still would!

He's pretty sexy in Californication! 😍

One has had a complete mental breakdown, and been sectioned. One has admitted paedophilia. One turned out to be gay. Several of them have died.

Pierce Brosnan is still looking good, though. :-)

Badly

Mine was Richard armitage but only with facial hair. It’s odd, I can’t say he’s aged badly (or indeed much) but somehow he just really not attractive at all nowadays.

And also that dude that played Buffys first vampire boyfriend, not sure what happened to him.

Morten Harket. I still would.

I loved Oliver Tobias in the 1981 children's show Smuggler. Just checked and he still has his hair which I suppose is a plus.

Nicky Byrne (Westlife) still beaut

I discovered Richard Armitage in The Stranger on Netflix and would definitely say he's attractive now!

David Boreanaz was accused of sexual harrasment

Real life? Badly. All the boys that were really good looking in our teens seem to have aged badly and look haggered.

Celebrity? Taylor Hanson. Hasn't changed. But I'd rather have Zac these days, he's bloody gorgeous.

Richard Armitage is lovely! The only time I haven't liked a look of his was Guy of Gisborne with the long hair in the final series of Robin Hood.

Pierce Brosnan.. I fell in love with him aged 12 when he was Remington Steele I still fancy him...

Real life.. the LOVE of my 13 year old self is now a porky smug, thrice married posh car salesman. Found him on FB and was sadly disappointed!!!

Donny Osmond.

Not my type at all now.

Andi Peters .... still looks the exact same as when he was in the broom cupboard

And Keifer Sutherland. Still very very handsome.

I think I picked well!

But my actual real life first boyfriend now looks extremely pitiful and I really just ... wouldn't.

David Hassehoff, circa Knight Rider. And no, no I wouldn't

Adam Ant. Just.No.

John Taylor, how can he be 60 and still that gorgeous.

Oh god, Morten Harket is honestly one of the most beautiful beings that has ever lived.

Mine was Roger Black. He's still pretty good looking. I also had a stonking crush on Tim Roth in the mid-90s - he's not aged so well.

Axl Rose has aged very, very badly.

Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys was my crush, he's aged really well I think, still looks so good

Another vote for Morten. He’s a beautiful man.

Richard Dean Anderson.... has not aged well

My childhood crush is still gorgeous and I sometimes FB stalk him and feel 16 again
