The X Factor host has been left angry after his boss, Simon, spurred on romance rumours between Olly and his co-host, Caroline Flack, in the wake of Olly splitting from his long-term girlfriend.

We mean, to be fair, it was probably way, way too soon for Simon to be making such remarks.

The music mogul recently revealed that he kinda ‘shipped’ Olly and Caz, wanting them to get together because they have fab chemistry ‘n’ stuff, and Ols is not happy with the telly judge adding so much fuel to the fire.

Speaking on ITV’s Loose Women, the 31-year-old ranted: “It’s so silly because I’ve obviously just gone through a break-up with my girlfriend which has been quite sad and quite a difficult couple of weeks so I’m going to have words with Simon about that.

“But me and Caroline have always said a hundred times in interviews that we’re never going to get together, we’re just really good mates.

“Simon’s always just trying to stir it up, but we’re just great friends, but it’s been a difficult couple of weeks.”

We’re sure it has, babes, we’re sure it has - and no doubt headlines about Olly and Caroline getting it on were the last thing that the star’s ex wanted to see so soon after the split.

A source recently dished that the break-up was incredibly tough for Olly, sharing: “The split has just happened and it is very raw for Olly, he still feels numb.

“He always worried that his relationship would struggle because he’d always put his career first.”

Never mind, love, ater a whole load of ice cream and a few fab nights out with your friends, you’ll be back to your old self in no time.
