X Factor judge Dannii Minogue is reportedly intending to raise her child in her home country of Australia.

The singer revealed this week that she and partner Kris Smith are pregnant with her first baby.

A pal of the couple told the Daily Mail: “Dannii will keep her apartment in London but wants to bring up her child in Australia.

“She is very close to her family and wants her mum and dad to spend as much time with the baby as possible.”

So what does this mean fpr Dannii’s X Factor role? The ITV talent show runs for almost six months out of the year and we don’t see how Dannii could raise her child in Australia, while acting a as judge on a British reality TV show.
