Kelly Osbourne confirms Sharon X Factor return

Kelly Osbourne has confirmed that her mother Sharon will be involved in the current series of The X Factor.

It was previously reported that Osbourne would make her return to the show helping Louis Walsh during the Judges' Houses stage of the competition.

In a message on Twitter, Kelly wrote: "My mummy just came to see me on set before she jets off to Ireland to film xfactor with louis!! (sic)"

Walsh apparently had to clear Osbourne's return with Simon Cowell.
