Sirine Jahangir took to the Britain’s Got Talent stage in episode 6 (Saturday, May 16th) and wowed audiences with both her story and her singing.<\/p>\n
While many were interested in Sirine’s story, some viewers were curious to find out more about her parents, who we also met in the episode.<\/p>\n
So, who are Sirine Jahangir’s parents? Find out about her famous family here!<\/p>\n
Sirine Jahangir is a 14-year-old singer from North London.<\/p>\n
Not only did her performance of Gabrielle Aplin’s ‘Salvation’ wow the audience, her story moved them all to tears. Sirine started to lose her eyesight at the age of 5. Sirine and her parents realised there was a problem with her eyesight, as when dressed up in a pirate costume, wearing a patch over her right eye meant that she suddenly could not see – the vision had already gone from her left.<\/p>\n
Despite arduous and painful medical procedures over the next four years, by the age of 9, Sirine had lost the sight in her right eye. She was then fully blind.<\/p>\n
Music runs in Sirine’s family as the late pop star\u00a0Junaid Jamshed was her uncle.\u00a0Before his death in 2016, he would make trips to the UK to visit his niece and teach about music.<\/p>\n
Kafeel Jahangir is a 48-year-old\u00a0property developer. Ghizlane is 40 but less is known about her background.\u00a0The couple also have two\u00a0sons Zayn, 13, Aydin, 6.<\/p>\n
Although unconfirmed, it is likely that Kafeel Jahangir is a former cricket as well. We found that the cricketer Kafeel Jahangir’s birth date lined up with the property developer Kafeel Jahangir<\/span><\/a>. His birth date is May 22nd, 1971 which makes him 48.<\/p>\n Kafeel batted right-handed and bowled right-arm fast-medium. After setting an impressive cricketing record while at Aldenham School (between 1983 and 1989), Kafeel made his professional debut for Hertfordshire County Cricket Club in 1993. He retired in 2000 and made his way into property.<\/p>\n
