TETNEY X Factor star Ella Henderson's mentor Tulisa is believed to have been axed from the hit ITV talent show.
National media have reported that the self-proclaimed "female boss" was given the news by series producer Richard Holloway – and that she wasn't best pleased.
As reported, the N-dubz star worked closely with the talented teen throughout the series last year and Ella has long said she classes Tulisa as her "friend" who she "looks up to."
Currently on the X Factor Live tour in Ireland and unable to comment on this latest news, as the youngest contestant in last year's competition, Ella said she welcomed the guidance of her mentor.
