Mae Muller's chances of winning the Eurovision Song Contest have received a boost from bookmakers, just as she came clean about a 'technical issue' that blighted her second rehearsal on Saturday.
After she supported Little Mix on their Confetti tour last year, it was announced at the start of March that Mae would be the UK's act for Eurovision this year, after speculation had linked the likes of Birdy and Freya Ridings to the honour as well.
Mae already knows she has a guaranteed place in the final in Liverpool, with her not compering in either Eurovision semi final 1 on Tuesday, May 9 or semi final 2 two days later. The UK are always in 'the big 5' along with France, Germany, Italy and Spain, meaning they don't have to qualify for the grand finale.
