Hello all you Private Parters, welcome back to the podcast where nothing is off limits.

It’s Friday and we’ve got a HUGE guest for you this week. Today, Jamie is joined by an incredible talent, an X Factor winner, a platinum selling artist… It's James Arthur. 

James won the ninth series of the X Factor, which saw him catapulted into fame, selling the most successful X Factor winner’s single in the show’s history.

They discuss his life before X Factor, from voluntary foster care to living in a bedsit to being homeless and how the X Factor really was his last shot at success. 

He reminisces about the X Factor, the pressure that came with winning the show, and his downfall afterwards which resulted in him being dropped by his record label just a year after his victory. Plus he reveals how his comeback has made him stronger than ever.
