Tom added, "I have known Kylie for a long time so it is nice to have someone you know personally giving you help.
"It is reassuring having a friend as well as such an experienced professional. It was tremendous working with her when we were both coaches on The Voice UK in the past. She is an accomplished artist and a really lovely person."
