Simon Cowell has signed X Factor finalists Reggie 'n' Bollie to his record label Syco. The duo, who finished second to Louisa Johnson in the singing competition in December, have said it is a "dream come true" to be working on their debut album.

Reggie and Bollie said: "We are so happy to be joining the Syco Music family and releasing our record with them. It is, literally, a dream come true for us to now do what we love for a living.

Cheryl has made no secret of her love for her act, and previously said they were "two of the most special people I have ever had the pleasure of working for and with," in an Instagram post ahead of December's X Factor final.

The duo will release their debut album through Syco later this year, and are currently in rehearsals for the X Factor live tour, which begins in Aberdeen in February.

Reggie 'n' Bollie follow in the footsteps of 2014 X Factor contestant Fleur East, who was also signed by Simon Cowell despite being a runner-up on the show.
