The pop manager and former X Factor judge has doubled down on his comments about Cheryl Fernandez-Versini. The pair have revealed a strong dislike for each other since Walsh left the show, with the boyband mogul telling The Sun on Sunday today:

Cheryl’s got a job. Why won’t she let Nicole be on the panel this year? Why won’t she allow Simon to have Nicole on the panel? There’s your f**king story. That’s the truth.
