X Factor’s Danyl Johnson has insisted that he didn’t bully Stacey Solomon during his time on the show.

Danyl was eliminated from the ITV1 TV show last night and had previously been accused of reducing his fellow competitor to tears with his personal jibes.

However Danyl denied the rumours and told The Daily Mail:

“There might have been speculation about fights but it just wasn’t true. Stacey and I would laugh about it. It was funny.

‘And if I had been a bully or anything like that I would have been kicked out by X Factor bosses because they certainly wouldn’t have stood for it.’
