Unwell X Factor finalist Lucy Spraggan is rumoured to be so unhappy at performing cover versions on the show that she is considering pulling out of the TV talent show.

The singer/songwriter made history on the UK X Factor as the first ever finalist to perform an original song on the live shows. Subsequent weeks have seen the former busker perform cover versions including Kanye West's 'Gold Digger'.

Spraggan missed this weekend's show due to flu, but backstage rumours suggest she may be considering leaving the show due to unhappiness on the show.

"Lucy might quit – she’s tired of being told off. She doesn’t want to sing covers," said a show source to The Mirror. "She was loving it but she’s unwell, which is making her negative."

Twitter users were quick to voice their reactions to Spraggan missing the weekend shows - and gaining a pass to next week, suggesting that her week of parties and premieres may have impacted on her health.

Eliminated constestants MK1 previously cast doubt on whether Spraggan was enjoying her time on the show, suggesting that she was 'grumpy' backstage.

Talking to Sarah-Jane Crawford on BBC Radio Xtra, Simeon Dixon said; "Lucy Spraggan had so many bad days and it was hard to try to connect and talk to her."

Other half of MK1, Charlie Rundle agreed with her band mate "She sounded a bit grumpy. Don't get me wrong, she's talented. But a smile wouldn't go amiss, if you know what I'm saying."
