Dermot O'Leary has apparently revealed that a certain someone will be making an appearance when X Factor hits our screens again.

"Cheryl's going to come back," he is reported to have told the Metro.

She did appear on the last series, but as a guest judge at Simon Cowell's judges' houses.

Recently, she has been busy raising her baby son Bear, with boyfriend Liam Payne, who used to be in One Direction.

So Cheryl fans will no doubt be delighted to hear she is planning to return to our screens.

When asked whether or not they could confirm this, a source at ITV said: "It's too early to comment on who'll be on the judging panel."

But who else would Dermot like to see on the panel?

"If it wasn't Cheryl, I would love Mariah [Carey]," he said. "It would be a whole new world of crazy!"

Dermot will be hosting the National Television Awards next week on Tuesday, which you can watch on ITV at 7:30pm.
