The current series of talent search show The X Factor could be judge Sharon Osbourne's last, a report claims.
A report in the Sun newspaper suggests Osbourne, who is very much part of the show's wallpaper, has become unsettled because of the female competition on the panel from new judge Dannii Minogue.
Minogue came on board in an effort to shake up the show at the beginning of this season and, unlike flop Brian Friedman, has cemented her place in the show.
"Sharon has been shuttling between LA and the UK while filming X Factor and America's Got Talent, so she didn't feel quite 'in' with everyone during recording," an insider told the Sun.
"And she's fed up with [Simon] Cowell trying to pit her against Dannii. She feels that it's time to move on."
Speculation about Osbourne's future on the show follows the saga surrounding fellow judge Louis Walsh, who was unceremoniously dumped by supremo Cowell after the last series.
A quick substitution for Friedman followed early on as Cowell, in true TV fashion, admitted that "we've made a mistake".
