X Factor star Bupsi Brown has set a new bar for pregnancy announcements...
Here at Closer Online we love a pregnancy announcement, so we were very excited when former X Factor contestant Bupsi Brown announced her pregnancy this morning.
The singer announced her pregnancy this morning via Instagram (Beyoncé, who?) with a truly beautiful picture of her gorgeous bump.
The snap was adorably captioned: “I promise to love and protect you until my very last breath… love Mama Bupsi.”
Fans were quick to flood the comments with congratulations, with one writing: “Yes! 💓💓 what a stunning photograph of you both you look amazing. Love and light mumma xx”
“Huge congratulations to you @bupsi and you will make an amazing mother! 💖💗💓xx,” wrote another.
Sassy AF Bupsi – real name Vicky Brown – became one of our fave ever X Factor contestants with her instantly iconic audition in 2015 when she climbed on the judge’s desk in front of Rita Ora and Cheryl Tweedy and sat on Simon Cowell’s lap.
Simon later became her mentor in the competition when she got through to the live shows in the Overs category. But after being eliminated in week one, Bupsi slated Simon for not really being around during the show.
Speaking to heatworld at the time, she said: “I’m not going to lie, we didn’t really see Simon. The other categories were quite lucky – I know the boys had contact with Nick [Grimshaw] – and I thought, really?
"And I saw Cheryl [Fernandez-Versini] in the house talking to the groups but I really didn’t get that [from Simon]. I don’t know if that was because we are the elderly’s and they think we’re all right and don’t need that parenting but we did. It would have been nice.”
We guess she won’t be asking Simon to be godfather then!
