X Factor boss Simon Cowell has reportedly asked pregnant judge Dannii Minogue to return to the ITV talent show, after she gives birth this summer.

The 38-year-old star is due to have her first baby in Australia this July and will therefore miss the show’s auditions, however The Daily Star reports that Simon wants to use celebrity guest judges for that time and then plans for her to re-join them at Boot Camp in September.
