Cowell: 'Eoghan and Diana are in love'

Simon Cowell has claimed that Eoghan Quigg and Diana Vickers are in love.

The X Factor supremo described the contestants as "two kids in love" at yesterday's press conference.

Cowell said that he "loved" last week's show, during which Quigg ran on to the stage during Vickers's final performance to embrace her, telling the press: "It's live TV, things like that happen, that's the fun."

The music mogul also confirmed a £1 million investment in the X Factor winner following reports that the contestants' contracts are "misleading".

'It's £150,000 to the winner and that's a lot of dosh," he said. "Add in the recording costs of between £300,000 and £500,000, videos are £200,000, £250,000 for advertising and £150,000 marketing. We make over £1 million commitment to the winner."

Quigg, boyband JLS and Alexandra Burke will compete in tomorrow's final.
