X Factor’s Jake Quickenden: “Stevi Richie and Chloe-Jasmine WILL be in the CBB final!”

Stevi Richie and Chloe-Jasmine Whichello’s romance blossomed on last year’s* X Factor*, but since they've been in the CBB house, it's been a right rollercoaster ride.

But one person who has every faith in the couple being the last ones standing is one of their X Factor friends.

“I think they will be just fine and wouldn’t be surprised if they are in the final,” Mr Jake Quickenden told heat.

There’s nothing like a highly pressurised make or break situation for a reality relationship. The couple faced eviction last week after the American housemates got sick of their PDAs, and Big Brother eventually forced the couple to sleep in separate beds.

With all this drama going on, is it strange that some people still think the relationship is just a showmance?

Jake stuck up for his mates, adding: “In the [X Factor] house you could see there was a bit of a spark, I think they should just keep being themselves and show everyone it’s not a showmance.”

If Stevi and Chloe do take the CBB crown, maybe Jake’s support will pay off and he’ll be in the running for wedding singer!
