X Factor Ella In Love Triangle?

Union J singer Dan is rumoured to have a crush on the 16-year-old sensation...

Things are moving pretty quickly for The X Factor contestant Ella Henderson.

At just 16 years old, she's already the favourite to win the show and is dating fellow hopeful George Shelley of Union J - and now she's reportedly at the centre of an awkward XF love triangle.

According to The Sun, District 3 singer Dan Ferrari-Lane has also admitted to having a crush on Ella, and there's tension between the two boys.

The paper reports that Ella and Dan were at college together and it's rumoured that he was hoping to become more than just friends.

But Ella has since [uuid=81441dd1-8875-4b1b-bab4-db5e57256e78]started seeing George[/uuid], and recently quashed rumours of a fling with Dan on Twitter.

She wrote: "'Ella and Dan get very close' ...REALLY?!!! Why don't we know about this? Hahaaaa."

And even though Dan responded by tweeting: "Always the last to know Haha! Thought we were trying to keep it under wraps? LOL... only messin," insiders say he's secretly holding a torch for the young singer.

An insider told The Sun: "Dan has a crush on Ella - but he can't own up to it now she and George are so joined at the hip."

The remaining contestants will be back on The X Factor stage singing live on ITV tomorrow night (13 October).
