There was heartbreak last night last night for the Island’s X-Factor hopeful – after Simon Lynch was knocked out of the TV reality show.
Last night saw the boys left in the contest whittled down to the three who’ll go on to compete on the programme’s live shows – and Simon didn’t make the list.
The 23 year old featured in a nailbiting countdown on Sunday before Nick Grimshaw announced he wouldn’t be going through.
Afterwards, however, Simon was still his cheerful self.
