Ruth Lorenzo - X Factor 2008

It has become more than obvious since the X Factor live shows began, that judge Simon Cowell has a bit of a soft spot for Ruth Lorenzo.

But Spanish born Ruth has revealed hat she already has a boyfriend and is not interested in the music mogul.

“Yes, I think it is clear that Simon likes me. I like him a lot too. We see each other almost every day, at the house, but I can assure you I don’t get any special treatment,” she told the Daily Star.

“I couldn’t accept if he ever asked me out as I already have a boyfriend and I don’t think he’d like that very much!”

A source close to the show claimed that Cowell is “crazy” about the 25-year-old, saying: “The chemistry between Simon and Ruth is undeniable and clear for everyone to see. Simon’s face simply lights up whenever he sees [her].”
