The 50-year old stated: 'We have routines every day. Today we go for a meeting and then we head back to the house for [X Factor] interviews for our VT and then hopefully we’ll have a few hours later on when I can go back to the hotel and just relax.”


"This is why Louis put me up for two nights. Because it is those two nights – believe it or believe it not – they just give you… you often hear people say that a change is as good as a rest – well it definitely is in this case."

She added: “Because just being here, your mind rests, your body rests and you’re able to cope more with what you’re learning and what’s going through your head and all the cameras in your face and that lot.”
