‘X Factor’ hopeful Lauren Murray has reportedly packed her bags and left the house shared by the contestants, following the elimination of her close friend, Kiera Weathers.
Lauren has also vented her frustration about Kiera’s departure on social media, claiming the contestants’ house “felt empty” without her and Seann, also writing on Instagram that she was her “best friend for the rest of my life”, adding: “I swear she has the kindest heart ever!”
However, Kiera was quick to point out that Lauren was still very much a part of the competition, and will still be performing in Saturday night’s third live show of the current series, alongside the nine contestants remaining in the series.
‘The X Factor’ continues this Saturday and Sunday, on ITV.
