‘I have made the decision to take a break from the best red chair on the planet.

‘It’s been six amazing years as a coach & it’s honestly been the best gig ever! I have nothing but good things to say about the show itself, & sharing the panel with such amazing coaches has been a pleasure.’

He then went on to reflect on his time on the show.

‘The best thing about the show is how positive it is & how much care and passion goes into making it a safe place for artists,’ he continued.
