Louis Walsh on X Factor: 'I didn't love it last year if I'm really honest'

Louis Walsh has admitted that he lost part of his "love" for the X Factor last year.

The Irishman was a judge on the show since its inception in 2004.

However, he was dumped for the 2015 series as newbies Rita Ora and Nick Grimshaw joined.

Speaking to RTE, Walsh said that he felt the time was right to leave.

The music manager said: "I loved doing the show for 10 years.

“I didn’t love it last year if I’m really honest with you. I liked it and it paid me well but I think I was just there too long and I was cracking up a bit."
