Senior executives of the X-Factor show have banned Nicole Scherzinger from joining Simon Cowell on his month-long Mediterranean holiday.
Sources revealed that X Factor judges Nicole Scherzinger, Gary Barlow, Sharon Osbourne, and Louis Walsh were due to board Cowell's yacht where he would discuss the finalists with them and reveal what categories they have, the Daily Star reported.
They were expected to film scenes for the new series, but the recent baby news has led the ITV bosses to cancel it as they wish to steer clear of the scandal.
Cowell is reportedly going on a month long holiday with female pals, Sinitta, Jackie St Clair, and Mezhgan Hussainy in the Mediterranean to take some time off as his pregnant gal-pal, Lauren Silverman settles her divorce.
