Two of the X Factor contestants have been getting VERY close

This could get awkward.

According to reports, X Factor contestants Grace Davies and Matt Linnen have slept together while staying in the official house. Like every other year, fans of the show get very invested in the finalists and aside from the live shows, there's always gossip about what's actually happening behind closed doors. This year is no different with Grace (19) and Matt (28) said to have hit it off over the last couple of weeks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTNd3qhgv8M However, it isn't likely to go any further with a source telling The Daily Star that they aren't dating, acting as if it never even happened.

"Matt and Grace aren’t dating – it was basically just for fun. "They now act as if nothing has happened".

The same insider went on to say that there are a lot of "attractive people" in the house this year and with the contestants living in such close proximity, it's no major surprise that some have been getting on better than others. However, some of the people in this year's X Factor are said to be worried that this could have a negative effect when it comes to their performance in the competition.

"Contestants are worried that people talking about flings will affect the votes - they’re petrified their fans will turn their back on them".
