This year's X Factor has been a hotbed of romance – and now there's another love story to add to the mix!

Louis' group Only The Young were kicked off the show on Sunday, but band member Parisa Tarjomani has other things to distract her now that her moment in the spotlight is over.

The 20-year-old singer is reportedly in a "very special relationship" with former X Factor contestant George Shelley.

George's band, Union J, finished fourth in the 2012 series of the show and were also mentored by Louis. He and Parisa have been friends since meeting at the X Factor auditions that same year, and their relationship has slowly grown.

Now George has opened up about the bond between the two – and it sounds like things are getting serious.

"We are really close and we love each other to bits, and we admit we love each other to bits… It's something more than friends but we're not quite a couple yet, if you know what I mean," he said in a recent interview.

The 21-year-old admitted that the pair are taking things slow. "We have accepted that we love each other and we are really good friends. I think both of us are at the right stages in our lives to be in a relationship," he added.

We have to admit, they make a cute couple!

It’s bad news for Chery Fernandez-Versini and her fans today, as it has been reported that the star is most likely set to miss tonight’s instalment of X Factor.

According to reports, the judge is currently suffering from a highly contagious throat infection that could see her miss out on this weekend’s shows.

While bosses hoped that Cheryl would be able to struggle through, it is believed that her condition has worsened in the past 24 hours.

This will no doubt come as disappointing news to 17-year-old Lauren Platt, Cheryl’s last remaining act on the talent show.

The news comes just days after Simon Cowell revealed that he’s uncertain as to who will be returning to the X Factor judging panel next year.

The music mogul told The Sun: “One thing I say to all these judges now is that it’s only important to come back if you want to come back for the right reasons, which is you want to find stars, you want to mentor people.”

He added: “Yes, the money is always a factor. But Cheryl’s got a lot of money. So has Mel, and she has been after this job for five years.”

We’ll have to watch this space, we guess!

X Factor boss Simon Cowell knows his stuff when it comes to reality TV, so we're happy to take his predictions on board for this year's show.

When asked what three contestants he would tip for the final three, Simon chose only two out of his own remaining acts – and one of Mel B's.

With just four weeks left til the final, the music mogul said he reckoned Ben Haenow, Fleur East and Mel's contestant Andrea Faustini were all likely to stick around on the show 'til the end. 

He did leave out his third act, poor Stevi Ritchie, but it was hardly a surprise given that Simon voted against him in the last-minute choice between Stevi and Jay James on Sunday.

"I really really like both of you. Jay you’re the better singer, Stevi you’re the better performer," said Simon in Sunday's results show. "I hate to say this, but I’m sending home Stevi."

In the end Jay was knocked out by the public vote, with Stevi safe for another week. Kinda awkward, no?!

Whatever about Simon's predictions, whoever wins this year will have a tough time battling against Band Aid 30 for the Christmas number one spot. 

The Do They Know It's Christmas? re-make was introduced on the X Factor results show last Sunday, so it already has a few week's head start. However Simon says it really doesn't matter to him who makes the top spot. "It doesn't bother me. If anything's going to be [number one] let it be a charity single."

We wonder if he's quite so calm on the inside!

She is extremely loved-up with Stephen Belafonte, but Mel B has revealed that she experimented sexually with women in the years before meeting her husband.

Appearing on Alan Carr: Chatty Man, the X Factor judge raised the topic of heterosexual women who become lesbians, saying: “Yeah. I was one of those for a few years.”

Mel, who has been married to Belafonte for seven years, said that while she went through a “phase” of experimentation, she never identified as a lesbian.

“I would not call it that,” she said, adding, “I was just one of those ladies. Now I’m happily married.”

The former Spice Girl was previously linked with Playboy model Luann Lee, who claimed to have once enjoyed a romantic clinch with Mel in a disabled bathroom.

Lee made her claims in July of this year, telling The Sun On Sunday that the singer followed her into the bathroom and started kissing her, while husband Stephen Belafonte waited outside the door.

Mel has previously refused to address rumours regarding her sexuality head-on, once saying: “People call me lesbian, bisexual or heterosexual, but I know who's in my bed and that's it."

Cheryl Fernandez-Versini’s new ‘I don’t care’ attitude is winning her no fans, that’s for sure.

While we’re waiting with baited breath for Nadine Coyle’s response to being labelled as “full of sh*t”, one person who has made their feelings on Cheryl’s cattiness known is Olly Murs.

Everyone was surprised when Cheryl booted X Factor contestant Monica Michael from this year’s competition, criticising her for choosing one of Olly’s songs, Troublemaker, for her audition.

“I know what you’re capable of, I don’t understand why you would do an Olly Murs song,” said the judge at the time.

Now, Olly has hit back at Cheryl over the incident, saying that it left him “annoyed”.

The former X Factor host told Attitude magazine: “I was a bit annoyed because I think the crowd were loving it and she [Monica] did a really good job.”

He added: “It’s the best I’ve seen someone sing Troublemaker. Obviously Cheryl didn’t like it. I don’t think she likes the song.”

If she keeps going the way she has been, we don’t think she’ll remain the nation’s sweetheart for very much longer!

It looks like we have another X Factor romance on our hands.

While reports have claimed that Lauren Platt has her eye on One Direction star Niall Horan, word on the street is that love is in the air for her and fellow contestant Charlie George.

An insider has claimed that there is definitely more going on here than friendship, despite the fact that Lauren is already in a relationship.

The source told the Daily Star: “I wasn’t shocked. I think that everyone around could see that blossoming.”

Romance rumours emerged last week, with a separate source claiming that Lauren and Charlie had been seen sneaking into each other’s rooms at night.

While the pair slammed the rumours, stating that their relationship was nothing more than a “supportive friendship”, it seems like there could be more than meets the eye.

Things got very awkward on Twitter after Cheryl Fernandez-Versini performed on The X Factor last night. 

The judge was accused of miming her new single I Don’t Care on last night’s show with speculation she hadn’t sung live quickly going viral on Twitter.

Now, the singer has denied that she was miming with a rep telling The Mirror: “She wasn’t miming.”

However, even her fellow celebrities seem to think she was miming, with EastEnders' Jake Wood tweeting: “Cheryl Nandos-Panini miming on TVs biggest LIVE singing show is like turning up 4 the 100m Olympic final wearing lederhosen & hobnail boots.”

 Former pop star Dane Bowers also tweeted: “There are many reason to mime…fair enough and perhaps @CherylOfficial had one but not admitting it just looks silly on a show like this!”

Cheryl is no doubt feeling the nerves ahead of tonight’s performance of her new single, I Don’t Care.

We’re thinking husband Jean-Bernard’s amazing gift may just help her through it somehow, though!

The restaurateur was so keen to show his support for his new wife ahead of her big show, that he has reportedly splashed out on a very expensive piece of jewellery for the star.

According to the Mirror, Jean-Bernard has gifted Cheryl with a stunning silver necklace by French jewellery designer Messika, which he purchased at the very fancy Harrods.

Lucky Cheryl!

A source told the newspaper: “JB knows his wife is nervous. He wanted to buy her a gift she could take on stage and know he’s right beside her.”

What a sweet gesture!

We hope we’ll be getting a sneak peek at it later tonight.

Niall Horan has made no secret of his admiration for X Factor contestant Lauren Platt.

The Mullingar man even took to Twitter to announce that she was his favourite act of the entire series this year.

And now the pair have been caught up in romance rumours after Lauren revealed that they have planned to meet up!

Speaking to OK! magazine, Lauren revealed: “I’ve got Niall’s number – I think  me, him and my best friend are going to meet up.”

Hmm, could romance be on the cards for Niall and Lauren? Let’s hope the legion of One Direction fans don’t get wind of this!

Of course, it wouldn’t be the first time that a member of the boy band got close to one of the show’s contestants.

Niall’s bandmate Zayn Malik famously met fiancée and Little Mix star Perrie Edwards on the show, with the loved-up pair now planning their wedding for next year.

We’ll be keeping a close eye on what happens next!

If you ever happen to run into Cheryl, we would steer clear of calling her Cheryl Cole…

The X Factor judge changed her name following her marriage during the summer, and is now personally and professionally known as Cheryl Fernandez-Versini.

Unfortunately, one innocent employee over at The X Factor made the mistake of forgetting this – and was pulled up on it by Cheryl herself.

Annoyed that warm-up act Ian Royce introduced her to the audience as Cheryl Cole on Sunday night, the singer reportedly blasted Ian as ignorant and stated: “that’s not my name.”

Sinitta later addressed the awkward issue, saying: “Do not use the C-word in this building. The four letter C word. C.O.L.E.”

Poor Ian then revealed that he was getting hassle from Cheryl’s fans on Twitter, writing: “I’m getting destroyed on twitter by the @CherylOfficial fans … I got the name wrong … I apologised. Let’s all move on.. *Twerks*”

He also apologised to Cheryl's husband, Jean Bernard, tweeting: "I embarrassed the husband (JB) of @CherylOfficial a man I like very much and for that I am truly sorry … Me and my big mouth."

Cheryl was married to Ashley Cole from 2006 until their split in 2010.

Cheryl continued to use the name Cole professionally until this summer, so surely it is understandable somebody would make a mistake and there is no need for such an angry reaction!

Katie Hopkins seems to have finally felt the power of some of her cruel words yesterday as she was escorted from the X Factor set following backlash. 

The backlash came from the families of Stereo Kicks – the eight piece band that Katie has some major issues with, saying: “They look like teenage boys waiting at an STI clinic to find out some really bad news. ‘Oh my God, what have I caught? Who have I slept with?’”

Katie got some serious backlash from the families of the boys for her comments, as a source told The Sun: “The families began shouting and hurling abuse. One of them asked how she’d like it if people abused her children. Katie was rattled – and in the end security and her own chaperone sneaked her out the back way.”

It was also reported that Katie had never received such intense reactions for her words before – which is strange because they are probably some of the mildest words she has said about people in the past!
