Real-life couple, Alex & Sierra, won X Factor on Thursday night much to mentor Simon Cowell’s delight. After it was announced that they had won the competition and the $1 million prize, they talked about it affecting their relationship.
Alex Kinsey said he doesn’t think the win or being in the competition together has changed his relationship with longtime girlfriend Sierra Deaton.
"I don't think it's changed at all," he told MTV News. "We still really like each other, so things are going well. At least I really like her." Deaton added the experience has “made us stronger.”
Kinsey also talked about what fans should expect from the Florida couple on their debut album, saying it will definitely be "original songs.”
He admitted, "We don't really know exactly where we're gonna go with it. I think what you've seen on the show is definitely a taste of it, but we're excited to get with producers and songwriters and see what Simon thinks we should do, and go in whatever direction feels right."
Alex & Sierra beat out finalists Carlito Olivero and Jeff Gutt to take Season 3 of the Fox show.
