Barlow 'set to quit X Factor'

Gary Barlow is reportedly planning to quit ‘The X Factor’ after the current series.

The ‘Take That’ singer – who claimed he was “embarrassed” to be a judge last weekend after his act Carolynne Poole was booted off the show in favour of controversial performer Rylan Clarke – is said to be preparing to reunite with his bandmates for a new album and tour so he won’t have time to work on next year’s series of the show.
