Crucial Details Of The New Series Of The X Factor Have Been LEAKED

You've probably heard by now that there's a new-look judging line-up for The X Factor 2018. Yep, after 13 years on the show, Louis Walsh is out - apparently to see the world and write his memoirs...

Apparently it's a requirement for there to be at least one Louis on the panel at all times though, as he's been replaced by One Direction star Louis Tomlinson. Louis will be joining music mogul Simon Cowell as well as fellow new additions to the show Robbie Williams and his wife Ayda Field.

Some fans have been left confused as to why Ayda has been hired - seeing as she doesn't seem to have any connections to music other than being married to Robbie. However, after successful appearances on Loose Women it seems ITV bosses think she'll be a hit.

Now, we've got a further X Factor 2018 scoop for you as the judges' categories have reportedly been leaked. Apparently Simon will be mentoring the girls, Louis (that's Tomlinson not Walsh, remember) the boys, Robbie the groups and Ayda the over-30s.

The series is set to return on Saturday 1st September and is sure to be full of drama. We can't wait!
