It wouldn’t be a series of X Factor without the inevitable rumours about who is hooking-up with who behind the scenes.
And this year, the honour goes to Grace Davies, 19, and Matt Linnen, 28, who have reportedly been getting hot ‘n’ heavy at the contestants’ mansion.
Ooh-er.

According to Daily Star, the singers have already enjoyed a steamy hook-up in between rehearsals but it’s nothing serious.
“Matt and Grace aren’t dating – it was basically just for fun. They now act as if nothing has happened,” said a source.
“Nobody has done anything wrong, at the end of the day Grace and Matt are both single.”
The insider described this year’s series as the “sexiest ever” and hinted there could be further hook-ups between the hot contestants as the live shows progress.
“There are a lot of attractive people in the house so some contestants are bound to be hooking-up.”
Of course, a good ol’ X Factor romance is nothing new…
Previous contestants to find love on the talent show include Chloe-Jasmine Whichello and Stevi Ritchie, while rumours abound of romances between Diana Vickers and Eoghan Quigg, and Sam Callahan and Tamera Foster to name a couple.
Then we have Ryan Lawrie and Emily Middlemiss who were dating before the show and are still happily together afterwards.
And there’s obviously Cheryl and Liam Payne – while they only started dating at the end of 2015, they did meet for the first time in 2008 when she was a judge and he was just an aspiring school boy singer.
Oh, and Liam’s former One Direction bandmate Zayn Malik, who had a fling with Rebecca Ferguson before going on to get engaged to and split from Perrie Edwards.
And Harry Styles, who, of course, hooked-up with the older Caroline Flack.
So, yeah, X Factor romances = nothing new!
However, one couple who are definitely NOT dating are Leon Mallett and Alisah Bonaobra – despite those random Photoshopped pictures doing the rounds on Twitter showing them holding hands.

An amused Leon told DigitalSpy: “To be fair, she’s probably the person I’ve spoken to least in the house. We had a laugh about all the rumours though – but I think that’s the only time we have spoken!”
Probably a good ice breaker, though!
