Simon Cowell has revealed that after sacking Kelly Brook from her Britain’s Got Talent judging role earlier this week, he has offered her a new position on ITV2 spin-off show, Britain’s Got More Talent.

Speaking to The Mirror, Cowell described the 29-year-old as a “tough little cookie” and said: “I have spoken to Kelly on the phone and apologised.

“She was very pragmatic and very professional about it, although obviously a bit sad about no longer being a judge.”

Cowell added:

“I’ve offered Kelly a part on my ITV2 show. I actually liked her – she was good, she was fine,” he said. “The problem was not her. Britain’s Got Talent just doesn’t work with four people.

“She is a warm person, who looks great and is very enthusiastic and that is why I spoke to her about the ITV2 show. I hope she’ll accept.”
