Cheryl Fernandez-Versini has revealed she is back in the recording studio just days after she announced her departure from The X Factor.

Fernandez-Versini, 32, this week told fans that she is “excited to be recording again”.

The singer teased fans by posting a black and white selfie from the recording studio.

She captioned the shot with a string of emojis which spelt the words: "New music coming soon."

Her last solo album, Only Human, peaked at number seven on its release in 2014.

Fernandez-Versini – who is dating former One Direction star Liam Payne – this week told fans she is stepping down from her role as a judge on the ITV talent show.

Announcing her departure she said: "I have had such an amazing experience being a judge on The X Factor. I have learnt so much and enjoyed nurturing talent but I’ve missed making music and am excited to be recording again.

"I want to thank everybody I have worked with along the way, especially Simon who I love to bits. I hope the show continues to produce stars and I wish them all the best."
