The 27-year-old has written a series of tracks for her former mentor, including the song 'Because You're Beautiful,' which Dannii reportedly absolutely 'loved.'

'She was rocking out with her big belly doing air guitar,' Ruth told The Sun, of the recently heavily-pregnant Dannii.
'She said she loved it. I said if she wanted to sing it, she could have it. So we got in the studio and it was so much fun.'
Dannii's upcoming album will mark the first time that the new mum has hit the charts since her 2003 offering, Neon Nights.
