Show insiders have made no secret of their concerns about Cher Lloyd's ability to cope with the pressures of the X Factor.
But as the stick-thin teen filled up with a fruit salad and caffeine-filled energy drink today, it seemed the worries may have fallen on death ears.
Hopefully supermarket worked Mary Byrne, 50, will make sure the 17-year-old gets a balanced meal.
Single mother Mary stocked up with two large bags of snacks including sandwiches, boxes of Pringles and snacks.
The lunch comes just days after viewers saw Cher struck down with tonsillitis at the crucial judges' houses stage of the show, leaving her future in the competition in jeopardy.
Cheryl Cole went with her 'heart' and backed her early favourite. But with weeks of gruelling rehearsals and draining live shows to come, Cher will need to keep her strength up if she is to repay that faith.
Cheryl admitted putting Cher through to the next stage was one of the 'hardest decisions' she had made on the show, as the 17-year-old was overcome with tears during the judges' houses stage of the competition.
However, the decision sparked fury amongst X Factor fans, who felt that the judgement should have been made on the performance that was screened as part of the Judges' Houses stage at the weekend.
There were also concerns that the wannabe was too emotionally fragile to cope with the pressures of continuing on the show after she was seen to breakdown before Cheryl and her friend, Black Eyed Pea's Will.I.Am.
Claude Knights, director of charity Kidscape, said: 'She's too vulnerable - further exposure seems quite risky and foolhardy.'
