Reports are coming in this afternoon that Anthony Russel has been kicked off the X Factor Live Tour after a cleaner found suspicious looking small plastic bags in his hotel room.
It is believed that these bags were drug-related.
A source has told The Sun:
"He's off the tour completely and he won't be coming back."
"All the other performers are gutted because Anthony is a lovely bloke. But he's got these demons he can't control at the moment."
A spokesperson for the tour also confirmed that Anthony had left for "personal reasons."
Anthony took part in the X factor back in 2018 and was mentioned by Louis Tomlinson to the final round of the show.
