An anonymous source said to be close to Jacqueline is reported as telling the newspaper’s website: “She couldn’t keep it a secret and has been telling pals she’s so excited and can’t wait to show off her amazing voice.”
And an insider from The X factor is also quoted as confirming: “Jacqueline has met bosses for talks about joining the show and they are ongoing.
“The final line-up hasn’t been confirmed yet and the decisions are still to be made.”
However, the report also suggests Jac – married to ex-TOWIE cast member Dan Osborne – may be getting her hopes up.

A separate unnamed person said to be in the know about arrangements for the spin-off celeb show has apparently tipped Jacqueline not to make the cut to the news outlet.
The insider claimed that multiple Inside Soap award winner Jac is on a “long list of really talented celebrities” and is “unlikely” to appear.
ED! has approached Jacqueline’s reps for comment.
