Four of Diamonds are a all-female group who competed in Series 13 of The X Factor as part of the Groups category mentored by Louis Walsh.
Originally eliminated at Judges' Houses, they were re-instated in Week 2 of the live shows following the withdrawal of the duo Brooks Way. They were eliminated in Week 5 after losing the sing-off to Saara Aalto, finishing in 8th place.
The X Factor[]
The girls successfully auditioned for Series 13 describing their sound as a cross of 60s mixed with a 90s vibe and made it through to bootcamp. From there they made it to the Six Chair Challenge and successfully made it to Judges' Houses mentored by Louis Walsh. It was at this point that they were eliminated.
However, they returned to the show when Brooks Way were eliminated due to assault allegations. It was also revealed that they had been formed on the show.
In Week 3, they landed in the Bottom 2 alongside Relley C but were saved 3-1 by the judges. The following week, they landed in the Bottom 2 again alongside Gifty Louise but were saved 3-1 by the judges.
In Week 5, they found themselves in the Bottom 2 for the third consecutive week, this time alongside Saara Aalto and were eliminated in a majority vote.

Trivia[]
- In Week 3, Relley C received more votes than Four of Diamonds which meant if the result went to deadlock, Relley C would have been saved.
- In Week 4, Louise received more votes than Four of Diamonds which meant if the result went to deadlock, Louise would have been saved.
- In Week 5, Aalto and Four of Diamonds received more votes than Sam Lavery in the main public vote. This meant that if Aalto won the lifeline vote or if there was not a lifeline vote, Four of Diamonds would have faced Lavery in the sing-off and in that scenario if the result went to deadlock, Four of Diamonds would have been saved and Lavery would have been eliminated.
