X Factor: Ella Henderson takes time to thank the Telegraph for support

SHE might have been flat out all week preparing for tonight’s live show, but X Factor starlet Ella Henderson still managed to take time out of her busy schedule to thank people back home.

The talented teenager has sent a hand-written card to the Grimsby Telegraph newsroom, saying “Thank you so much for the support! It really means a lot! Thanks! Love Ella x”

A big thank you: The handwritten note sent by X Factor hopeful Ella.

Ella, 16, from Tetney, will join the other 10 remaining finalists – including Cleethorpes-born Micky Parsons of District 3 – on the live stage tonight for Club Classics week.

And she revealed on Twitter that her performance will be somewhat of a milestone – her first time dancing on the show.
