Cheryl confirmed her long-anticipated return to the X Factor as she posed for an official picture with Simon Cowell.

Her return as a mentor in the Judge's Houses follows a two-year hiatus from the show and comes almost 10 years after she first appeared on it in 2008.

She recently returned to the spotlight after giving birth to her first son, Bear, with boyfriend Liam Payne in March.

The former Girls Aloud star posed next to a smiling Cowell at his mansion in South of France.
