Myles admitted he had a crush on Cheryl at Judges Houses
What did Cheryl say about Rak-Su?
Cheryl, who temporarily judged with Simon at the Judges' Houses this year, admitted she was a fan of the band as they performed.
Myles got all bashful and became red-faced as he made eye contact with the former Girls Aloud star.
As the boys left Simon couldn't help poking fun at him as he said: “You like her don't you?”
Myles looked embarrassed as Liam's other-half quickly said: “I'm taken, sorry!”
Simon then couldn't resist saying: “Anything can happen on this show!”
Why was Myles Stephenson warned off by Liam Payne?
Cheryl is currently dating former One Direction star Liam Payne who didn't seem impressed by Myles' flirty antics.
Liam appeared on the ITV show to perform his single during the first live show and quipped: "He fancies my missus so I’ve got to keep an eye on him!”
But Myles didn't take any offense as he told Now magazine: "Liam did indeed [make a little joke], he’s a lovely bloke, so down to earth, so humble, you wouldn’t think that he’s sold millions and millions of records. He’s such a down to earth guy and it’s an honor to meet him."

Myles secretly split from his long-term girlfriend Rebecca Bignell after reaching the live finals on The X Factor.
The pair had been "on a break" since late September after drifting apart to help him focus on the ITV show.
But now Myles is fully single after the couple - who had been friends for eight years and an item since April 2016 - permanently parted ways on November 7.
And The Sun has revealed how The X Factor singer has also been growing close to researcher Demi Kaye - much to the anger of the show's bosses.
A source said: "Their flirting has become a big talking point in the contestants’ house and has been noticed by some of the crew.
"It's against the rules and now bosses have given her a ticking off.
"Demi seems very taken with Myles’ charm and they’ve been hanging out together at the contestants’ house."
