Ivy Grace believes that The X Factor UK is the biggest competition that could give her the stepping stone she needs to do good in the future. She has 2 ½-year-old daughter who is under the care of her parents in the Philippines.
UPDATE: Ivy Grace was forced out of competition over visa issues.
As part of Sharon Osbourne final six, she was ‘point blank refused a visa’ to fly to Los Angeles for Judges Houses competition.
A report from Sun said: ‘There has been talk of a past issue causing problems but no one but Ivy knows the reason.’
‘Unfortunately there was an issue with her application being approved which meant that she was not granted a visa in time and sadly had to withdraw from the competition," a report from metro.co.uk said.
