Dermot recently discussed the reasons behind his shock exit from The X Factor in 2015. He left the ITV reality show before the 12th series and was replaced by Caroline Flack and Olly Murs.
He returned the following year, and recently said that the lack of certainty surrounding his future on the show at the time was frustrating given the time commitment required.
Last month, Dermot also weighed in on whether Ant & Dec should win Best Presenter at the National Television Awards this year.
The X Factor is expected to return to ITV later this year.
