X Factor bosses threaten to kick Ottavio Columbro and Bradley Hunt off the show
Pair warned to tone down their wild ways following reports of boozing and sex romps at boot camp
THE X Factor bosses have threatened to kick Ottavio Columbro and Bradley Hunt off the show if they don't tone down their wild antics.
The pair are said to have been among the contestants involved in a booze-fuelled boot camp party, and we can now reveal producers have given them an ultimatum over their bad behaviour.
The pair were thrust into the spotlight with their dramatic X Factor audition, which was marred by a spat over uncooked chicken, but ultimately landed them a place in boot camp.
However, the post audition stage has been blighted by reports of wild partying, heavy drinking and saucy sex sessions, and The Sun Online can now exclusively reveal Ottavio and Bradley have been reprimanded.
An insider told us: "Ottavio and Bradley were warned to clean up their act or they will be kicked off the show."
It follows reports about the outlandish antics of some of the acts at boot camp.
The second stage of The X Factor process was held at Alexandra Palace in north London, with more than 100 acts taking part.

A lavish party was held for the participants, and was kicked off by The X factor judges Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherzinger, Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh.
The judges only made a brief appearance at the bash, and the reported the party descended into debauchery as the contestants knocked back booze.
A source told the publication: "Some contestants went wild at boot camp treating it more like an 18-30s holiday.
"There were wild late night parties with contestants snogging and sleeping together.
"One girl in particular was all over the boys and slept with at least three different people.
"No drinking was allowed before 9pm but after that people were getting drunk."
A representative for The X Factor told The Sun Online there was alcohol at the bash, but contestants were limited to two drinks each.
The spokesperson said: "A welcome party was thrown for contestants where anyone over 18 was allowed two drinks.
"No one was ever encouraged to misbehave and all acts are auditioned on the merit of their performances and nothing else."
The pair have been embroiled in controversy since their audition, which involved a Jeremy Kyle-style row over a chicken dinner.
Bradley also previously auditioned for the show back in 2014 despite previously denying the claims in a Facebook Live chat with The Sun Online.
They previously appeared on the show with fellow wannabe Rylan Clark-Neal back in 2012, and subsequent attempts in 2013 and 2014 were not aired.
The pair have also been regular on the reality show circuit, with Bradley even appearing on Britain's Got Talent singing a song about chicken.
Alongside that, Bradley and singing partner Ottavio have also appeared on Judge Rinder, Strip Date and Coach Trip.
