With this news, rumours have started about who could replace her and some media outlets are suggesting it could be Katie Price and Peter Andre. It all stems from a tweet which Katie sent, showing her interest in the show.

I would sooo present this how cool if me and pete did it ? — Katie Price (@MissKatiePrice) April 14, 2016

It's not the first time Katie has suggested herself for a presenting role, having previously tweeted about The X Factor earlier this year. I think we'll be taking this rumour with a pinch of salt.

I would defo present X factor @ITV @SimonCowell @TheXFactor now that would be interesting ???????
