The powerhouse confessed that she was relieved to have escaped the clutches of the Black Eyed Peas frontman’s collective as her new home under her fellow Welsh native is “much friendlier”.
Speaking exclusively to Express.co.uk, 16-year-old Victoria exposed some home truths about life in Team Will.
“In Team Tom, everyone is so much friendlier with you,”she enthused. “You’re not seen as a threat to anyone or competition, it’s natural and it’s natural living.
“I wouldn’t go to someone and say, ‘You’re a threat, we’ve got to fight now’. In Team Will you’re friends with everyone, but you can feel tension there. It’s like you say, ‘You’re my threat or you’re my threat. I’ve got to battle with you and if you go further than me.’”

She added: “Everyone knows it’s a competition but as I see it, in Team Tom everyone welcomed me with open arms.”
Thankfully, Victoria was stolen by the legendary Sir Tom, though, he always knew that would be the case.
“I was waiting for Will to make a decision and I thought he’d definitely go for Victoria to be honest,” explained the 74-year-old crooner. “For me, [in the Battle] Victoria was the better singer. Honestly, nothing against Leah, but I couldn’t understand why he didn’t.
