A source told The Sun: “Andrea and Ben have put on weight and it’s becoming a problem.
“Andrea’s always been a bit cuddly, but if he wants to be a serious pop star he needs to be in better shape.
“Ben is not exactly fat, but he’s getting a bit of a belly and it’s becoming harder and harder for the stylists to hide it.”

The wannabe pop stars have allegedly been put on a strict gym regime to shape up ahead of the final.
“We have spoken to them both and said the need to seriously think about whether they want a career in pop music,” the source continued.
“They need to cut out biscuits and get to the gym. That isn’t a suggestion, that’s an order from the very top.”
But Andrea especially doesn’t seem to bothered.
He previously said: “The physical form has never been a problem for me. I have always been proud of my belly, acquired with years of carbs.”
