X Factor hopefuls John and Edward Grimes are gaining momentum in their quest to win this years X Factor.
Not only have the twins got the backing of superstar Robbie Williams but top bookie Paddy Power have also powered in behind them.
The generous bookie was at the Spa Hotel in Lucan today to present John and Edwards father, John Senior, with a 1,000 euros bet at odds of 50/1 on his sons winning this years contest.
All winnings from the bet will be donated to the Grimes familys chosen charities of choice, The Marie Keating Foundation and the ISPCA.
At 50/1 the twins are outsiders in the betting to win this years X Factor but if they do go the distance, theyll net a whopping 50k euros for charity.
Even if the brothers fail to win Paddy Power will donate the stake money to their two favoured causes.
Paddy Power said:
We think the lads are great fun and we jumped at the opportunity to get behind them. Hopefully Robbie Williams support will give them the X Factor they need to go on and win!
