'X Factor' Eoghan, Diana 'an item'

X Factor contestants Eoghan Quigg and Diana Vickers have reportedly become "an item".

According to The Sun, the pair are now happy for people to know that they are in a relationship.

"They don't care who knows they're an item anymore," said a source. "They're always together and everybody knows they're a couple now."

The pair were spotted sharing a taxi back to their shared house in West Hampstead on Saturday night.

Quigg previously denied he was in a relationship with Vickers, claiming she was just his "best friend in the competition".

Vickers's boyfriend Chris Jones has insisted that he isn't concerned by the rumours of a show romance.

"Diana and I are very close," he said. "I'm not threatened by her friendship with Eoghan and I’ll support her all the way."
