X Factor stylist Grace Woodward says that ex-squeeze Matt Cardle is struggling with his voice just hours before The X Factor final tomorrow night.
Former painter and decorator Matt just about pulled through last week's performance after suffering from a bout of tonsilitis, which is yet to clear up.
'His voice isn't quite up to scratch so we'll just have to see how he does,' Grace, 33, told Ruth Langsford on This Morning.
'It's sick building syndrome - everybody at Fountain Studios is suffering and ill so we're all gonna make a huge effort.'
Fashionista Grace - who recently dumped Matt, 27, because of his flirting ways - is adamant that coughs and colds will not get in the way of the final showdown.
'As Simon [Cowell] has said, it's going to be the biggest finale ever,' she promises, 'we've been working 24/7 to make it that way and we're all exhausted to be honest.'
Catch The X Factor final this Saturday at 7pm on ITV1.
