Sharon Osbourne gave Simon an ultimatum, either he fired Danni Minogue or she walks. It turns out that a salary dispute had nothing to do with her leaving the show and that Danni was the real reason she no longer wants to return for the latest series of The X Factor.
Walsh told the sunday mirror:-
“It’s not contracts or money, it’s Danni. They don’t get on at all and she wasn’t happy with the situation. Sharon has walked off, she’s gone. Why didn’t they give Danni the boot instead?”
Walsh has also not confirmed if he will be returning to the show, he said:-
“I haven’t signed yet but I am negotiating, it’s a difficult situation. Sharon is a great friend, I talk to her everyday. She is devastated and so am I. I have absolutely no relationship at all with Danni. I have no idea how she is feeling about all of this because I simply do not talk to her.
