Louis Walsh has said Will Young “a diva” after dropping out rival show Strictly Come Dancing for “personal reasons”.
The X Factor judge said Will should have powered on through the competition.
“Let’s be honest, Will is a bit of a diva,” he told the Sunday Mirror.

“He should have stayed – but it’s his decision at the end of the day.”
“I’d say Strictly is probably a very tough show – it’s probably taken its toll on him.”
Will quit after just three weeks on the live shows, despite his highest score so far of 31 for his salsa to The Pussycat Dolls song You Are My Destiny.
Will, 37, was reported to have been struggling with anxiety – and was said to be “fed up” with being told what to do by pro dance partner Karen Clifton.
