ImageMagick “dyld: Library not loaded” Libfreetype.6.dylib

I was trying to install ImageMagick recently using HomeBrew, I was able to install the software however when I tried to run any commands I was receiving the error

ImageMagick reported an error: dyld: Library not loaded: 
/opt/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib Referenced from: 
/opt/local/bin/convert Reason: Incompatible library version: 
convert requires version 14.0.0 or later, but 
libfreetype.6.dylibprovides version 10.0.0

I tried to update a whole bunch of things but struggled for a few days, the solution ended up being the need to update X11 (XQuartz). I installed the update, restarted my Macbook and the issue was fixed. The download is sizeable but it is definitely the solution to the problem.
