It has just been revealed that Dermot O'Leary has left The X Factor. Dermot took to Twitter just after the news broke thanking ITV, Simon, The X Factor family and the viewers.
He also wished his successor the best of luck. Dermot took over from Kate Thornton in 2007 and has played a massive part in the shows success. It hasn't been confirmed who will take over.
I'd like to wish the team all the best for the future, especially whoever takes over from me.

You're about to be the conductor on the most brilliant, runaway train in showbiz. Good luck you'll love it.
