Olly Murs and Caroline Flack confirmed as hosts of The X Factor 2015

Olly Murs and Caroline Flack have made all of our dreams come true…they’re coming back to The X Factor and will be hosting the show when it starts again later this year.

That’s right, everyone. Caroline’s incredible legs are coming back to primetime television. CRACK OPEN THE CHAMPERS.

We reported last month that Olly and Caroline were coming back and tonight, ITV bosses confirmed the news, with Olly saying: “I'm incredibly excited and proud to be returning to The X Factor alongside Caroline.

“I love the show and it kick-started my career in music which has given me the opportunity to do what I love. I already have the best job in the world and it's about to get better - I can't wait to get started and be part of finding some amazing new talent!”

Caroline added: “I'm beyond excited about presenting The X Factor with Olly. To have the privilege of doing this with someone who makes me laugh out loud is a massive bonus!

“I'm also incredibly lucky to have the best tips and support from my showbiz big brother Dermot. I'm not sure how I can live up to his long term residency but I know I can't let him down!”

The duo – who hosted The Xtra Factor together for two years from 2011 – will be on stage together and will no doubt have the same amazing chemistry we saw before. Big boss Simon Cowell’s equally as chuffed.

“I am absolutely delighted Caroline and Olly are both returning to The X Factor,” he said tonight. “When they were on Xtra together, they were a brilliant double act. Since then, Caroline’s gone from strength to strength – and Olly has become one of Britain’s biggest stars. So now I’m looking forward to them fronting the main show.”

Despite the on-going speculation, Olly and Caroline kept their news on the low, bar that time Olly gave the game away. On 12 April he seemed to get a tad overexcited during a gig in Dublin, telling fans they’d soon see him on the TV before making an X sign with his arms.

We don’t think we could be anymore excited right now – Olly and Cazza are back!
