Can you believe it's over a week since Scarlett Lee, Anthony Russell and Dalton Harris battled it out to be crowned winner of The X Factor 2018? Now obviously Dalton won with his James Arthur duet The Power of Love, but we're still so obsessed with runner-up Scarlett that we just had to get her on the Big Night In couch.

If you thought there was any tension between the two finalists, think again. They're basically BFFs, with Scarlett describing Dalton as her 'annoying brother.'

That's a compliment, right?

Chatting about the real Dalton, Scarlett told heat Radio's Emily Segal: "He's like my brother. Another annoying brother.

"We just annoyed each other all the time. We got along like a house on fire, and I think no one understands his character.

"One day, eventually, he'll come out and be like 'this is me' and everyone will laugh at him because he's hilarious. He's so funny, he gives my belly pains.

"I spoke to him yesterday. He sent me a picture of his award for being in the top 40 and I was like 'it's alright for some.' I'm so proud of him."
