They've left by 'mutual consent'. Here's the official statement:

Brooks Way leave The X Factor by mutual consent

Brooks Way will no longer be taking part in The X Factor Live Shows.

After being absent from Saturday night’s first Live Show of 2016, Brooks Way and producers of The X Factor have decided by mutual consent that the group will leave the competition.

In a statement, Josh Brooks said: "Due to events in my personal life I've decided that it's best not to be on the show at this time. While not everything that has been claimed is true I would like to apologise to everyone involved."

An X Factor spokesman added: "Following the allegations relating to Josh Brooks, we have decided by mutual consent that Brooks Way should leave the competition."

Details of their replacement will be announced in due course.

They should never have been put through. There was no balance in an all male lot of groups. 4 of Diamonds outsang every single group. Louis and the two girls were mad about them and then he put that stupid joke act through. I am most annoyed as the producers should go through every contestants past with a fine tooth comb and if there is a WHIFF that something is going to come out about them they shouldnt get the place of another more deserving act. My first time on X factor forums
