They didn't waste any time, so.

The show has barely gotten off the ground – but two X Factor contestants aren’t hanging around when it comes to matters of the heart.

Yup, bootcamp has gotten off to a particularly noteworthy start for Russell Jones and Hayley Norton.

The Sun reports that the duo have already enjoyed a night of passion together – something which is mildly worrying producers of the reality TV show.

Russell is 25 and is Welsh. On Saturday he impressed the judges with an energetic version of I Wanna Be Like You from The Jungle Book.

Meanwhile, Hayley is 21 and is Irish: she’s from Belfast and was seen on Sunday’s airing as part of a duo called Descendance – her mum, Debye, making up the other half of the act.

An X Factor source told the publication: “Russell and Hayley met each other at boot camp at Wembley Arena in London and there was an instant attraction between them. Emotions were running high and they took things back to the bedroom.

“Their night of passion was quickly the talk of boot camp and they did little to try and hide it.

“It’s not clear if it’s going to develop into a full-blown romance but they are definitely having fun with each other.”

Hayley has already shared a snap of her and Russell together on Instagram; she captioned the post “I found a swanky boy”.

The show source did highlight however “while romances are not banned on the X Factor it can be frowned upon by show bosses”.
