It's all going to be okay everyone! Panic over! Kelly Rowland will be returning to The X Factor in time for next weekend's shows. Yay!
If you have been following all the dramatic events unfold on Twitter today, you’ll know that there has been a lot of speculation about whether Kelly Rowland will ever return to the show, despite her revealing that it’s a rare virus keeping her away for the judging panel this weekend.
But with more and more news hounds gossiping about whether it’s actually her feud with Tulisa Contostavlos that has caused Kelly to stay in LA, her people have decided to put the record straight – and as we anticipated, Ms Rowland’s absence is merely temporary.
“Kelly is making great progress and is expected to be on a plane back to the UK to take up her place back on The X Factor judging panel next week,” her spokeswoman told us.
“Rumours of her quitting are completely untrue. Her doctor has said that she needs a few days so we're confident that she will be flying back early next week following her latest check-up. She remains in contact with her girls and is fully supporting them this weekend."
Phew! Here at Heatworld, we're huge fans of the Kelster so we are very glad to hear she'll be returning very soon. Oh and this also means Alexandra Burke will only be guest judging for one weekend… well she can't 'put it down' like Kelly Rowland, can she? We look forward to having you back Kel'.
