The rumours were close.
Simon Cowell will not appear as a weekly judge in the UK version of The X Factor, but ITV said it was “talking about ways in which he can have an on-screen presence later in the series”.
Cowell is busy preparing the US X Factor due to start screening in September.
ITV said Cowell would continue to be “an enormous presence backstage” on the UK Series and that it would be in constant discussions with him to ensure the show “continues to evolve”.
Other judges for both versions of the show have yet to be announced.
Last year Cowell ended a long-run as a resident judge on American Idol, in order to launch The X Factor which is worth far more money to him given he is the show’s creator.

He should come over here and judge our Xfactor, it will be boring without Kyle and his ” tell it like it is ” judging.
