Rachel Adedeji has suggested that she may have left the show because of bad X Factor editing.

In an interview with The Mirror, Rachel said that viewers knew very little about her in comparison to her fellow female competitors, Lucie Jones and Stacey Solomon.

She said: “Viewers didn’t know who I was to begin with, whereas other contestants, like Stacey and Lucie, have back stories. I have one, but it wasn’t broadcast as much as the others.

“It never got to me because I came to sing, and I thought people just voted on our performances. But it shows it is not just about singing.”
