Simon Cowell has allowed 'X Factor' contestant Eoghan Quigg to use his private jet to travel home to Derry to meet his new baby sister.
According to the Daily Mail, Cowell made the gesture after Eoghan became upset earlier this week when he was sent a picture message of baby Chrissie Mia.
A source said of the trip: "It will be a flying visit, as Eoghan is in the middle of rehearsals for this Saturday's show, but he is over the moon."
"Simon called him up personally with the surprise and that set poor Eoghan off again, but this time they were tears of joy."
