Minogue: "I've never been happier"

Dannii Minogue has revealed that she is very happy in her love life and professional life.

The 37-year-old is currently dating model Kris Smith.

She told The Mirror: "I’ve never been happier.

"I am just so, so in love. For the first year, we’ve been working out how to be together because our jobs are so crazy and all over the place.

"But I know he’s The One."

Minogue also said that she is getting on well with her fellow X Factor judges.

She said: "The biggest difference this year is that Louis is not being mean to me. He got too involved last year. But on the first day of work this time around, he was really cute.

"He came up and apologised, saying, 'I got too involved and had no perspective left. Please don’t let me do that this year'.

"So I said, 'OK, it’s a deal'. We’ve been giggling together all the time on set ever since."

Minogue shrugged off rumours of rivalry between herself and Cheryl Cole, saying: "We’re having fun. And oh gosh, I love seeing what she’s going to turn up wearing to work every time.

"She’s just so cute and tiny but we can’t swap outfits - I wouldn’t fit into any of hers! I think we have very different personal styles which I think is good. We need to be in different stuff."

The X Factor returns tonight at 7pm on ITV1.
