The X Factor judge Dannii Minogue said she will be back for next year’s show, despite rumours saying she is going to be sacked from the show and replaced by Robbie Williams. 

The 37-year-old has said: “The producers and Simon tell me I am returning, so that’s all I believe. So unless I hear differently, then I’ll be back.”

Despite her fall-out with judge Louis Walsh, which saw her in tears live throughout one show, Dannii is keen to keep the current line-up, as she believes that the panel is strong and works well with Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and Cheryl Cole. 

“We have different opinions – it’s very important.” Dannii says. 

The 37-year-old is taking her rugby player boyfriend Kris Smith home to Australia to meet her parents this Christmas - ”I can’t wait to show Kris around Australia. I’m so excited. Initially he was coming for a two-week break, but who knows, he might just take one long holiday and stay with me the whole time!”

Cheryl who is a judge alongside Dannii on the show has put previous marriage troubles with footballer husband Ashley Cole, after reports he was unfaithful, behind her this Christmas.

Cheryl has said: “I’m a real Christmas person. It’s such a family time and I love getting festive. I’d like to fill stockings with romantic and thoughtful presents for Ashley!
