Olly Murs and Caroline Flack to host The X Factor
- Published
Olly Murs and Caroline Flack have been confirmed as the new presenters of The X Factor.
They are the first pair to host the Saturday night show, replacing Dermot O'Leary who announced he was leaving after eight years.
The pair will be used to the show as they co-hosted The Xtra Factor on ITV2 for two years from 2011.
Olly was a contestant on the show back in 2009, when he came second to Joe McElderry.
Caroline is no stranger to TV talent shows either; after winning last year's Strictly Come Dancing.
X Factor boss Simon Cowell said he was "absolutely delighted" that they were returning to the show.
The new series of The X Factor returns this autumn.
