Sorry X Factor Hopfuls! Gary Barlow To Hold Judges House Round In Europe Not US

It looks as though Robbie Williams won't be welcoming Gary Barlow in LA for the X Factor judges' houses round following the claims that the Take That frontman will be staying in Europe for it.

Maybe he should book an Irish castle before Louis Walsh gets to it...

The star has reportedly requested to stay in Europe in case he has to rush off to be by his wife's side when she gives birth.

Speaking of Gary's request, an insider told The Sun: "Gary's daughter is due to arrive at exactly the same time the judges' houses are set to be filmed.

"He is really torn - he wants to be with his acts but he knows he can't miss his daughter's birth.

"You could see Gary making a hospital dash on the show. This really is reality TV", the source added.

It looks as though Gary will have to decide pretty soon where he wants to take his hopefuls to after Xtra Factor host Caroline Flack revealed on Twitter that today would be the day the hopefuls find out if they've made the judges house round.

She tweeted: "Today is a big day for our contestants. We find out who is going to judges houses. #bootcamp day 4!!!!!"
