Fearne has found 'the One' - Nov 27 2007
Fearne Cotton has apparently described her boyfriend Jesse Jenkins as "the One".

The 26-year-old - who is currently hosting the Xtra Factor - said they met in America and now Jesse, 21, splits his time between here and the States.

"We see each other every day," Fearne told New! magazine. "He lives with me when he's over here. It's perfect.

"Yes, he's 'the One'! We're best mates, we have a great giggle together and he's a top bloke. I've had some wrong 'uns in the past but I picked a good one in the end."

Asked if they would be tying the knot anytime soon, she added: "Well, I don't know about that just yet! I'm a bit young for all that."

The blonde said that one of her favourite contestants on X Factor is Leon Jackson.

"I really like Leon because he gets really nervous and I think that you get to see his vulnerability," she said.

"I think Rhydian is great, too. Career-wise he could be really successful and at this point I would put my money on him."

Fearne: No one can match Leona - Nov 8 2007

Fearne Cotton has admitted she thinks none of the contestants on the X Factor compare to last year’s winner Leona Lewis.

The 25-year-old, who hosts ITV2’s Xtra Factor, said: "I love Leona, I mean she to me explains why X Factor exists. She was a true talent that was found from nowhere and I think X Factor this year is going to find it very difficult to find someone up to her standard.

"I think this year the competition’s different in that it’s more entertaining, but I think she’s just the most amazing singer and she came on the show the other week and I couldn’t believe how great she was - she was amazing."

But the presenter, who hosted the Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women Of The Year Awards, praised opera singer Rhydian for "bringing something so magnificent to stage" and Hope, who she said would relate to kids.

She added: "It’s just been different every year, it’s not been worse or better and that’s why the show does keep going."


Fearne has the Xtra Factor? - May 9 2007
Fearne Cotton is being lined up to replace Ben Shephard as host of the Xtra Factor, according to reports.

The Sun says the pretty 25-year-old has been earmarked by ITV bosses to front the programme after her impressive stint hosting flop Love Island last year.

Ben, 32, quit the ITV2 X Factor spin-off last month amid rumours he was upset at being overlooked in favour of Dermot O’Leary to present the main show on ITV1.

A spokesman for ITV said no decision had been made on his replacement.

"We have not confirmed the host of the Xtra Factor yet and we will make an announcement when we do," he said.

Former Top Of The Pops presenter Fearne worked on the Brit Awards for both ITV1 and ITV2 earlier this year, and impressed with her stints on Comic Relief and Eurovision show Making Your Mind up for the BBC.

She is also working on an ITV1 show with best friend Holly Willoughby, which will see the pair finding dates for Britain’s lonely hearts.
