The Voice UK has revealed their new line-up of judges going forward.
This comes after Olly Murs and Anne-Marie were sacked from the popular singing show.
Olly had been a coach on the show since 2018, while Anne-Marie joined in 2021.
Now making The Voice UK history, Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones will fill the third coaching spot in a double chair.
LeAnn Rimes will fill the fourth spot.
The country singer said: “I’m truly excited and grateful to take on the role of coach on The Voice UK and to be joining an epic panel of coaches.”
“Being able to work with and nurture emerging, vibrant talent in the UK represents a new chapter of my heart felt connection with the wonderful fans I’ve had deep ties with for decades.”
“I’m looking forward to offering my heart and guidance, sharing what I’ve learned through my own musical journey, and discovering the extraordinary talent that the UK is renowned for.”
Tom and Danny added: “To be making The Voice UK history as the first ever double chair combo is going to be epic and we’re both ready for the challenge. And of course, we couldn’t ask to be in greater company than our fellow Voice family members Emma, will, sir Tom and LeAnn. Roll on the talent!”
After being dropped from the show, singer Olly said: “I’m gutted. I got the call last week to say I won’t be back on the show, and it’s a bit of a shock, to be honest. I didn’t really expect that to come.”
“But I don’t want to sit here like other artists might, and shine and gloss this up and say, ‘It was my decision’. I don’t want to do that.”
“I don’t want to bulls**t my fans or bulls**t people who watch the show, and say, ‘Oh, it was an amicable decision to leave — I’ve got lots of things on next year, I can’t do it any more’.”
“No. Genuinely, I accept their decision, and they’ll find someone great, I’m sure. But am I going to miss it? Yeah.”
“Did I want to leave? No,” Olly admitted. “Will I still watch the show? Of course, but it’ll be sore thinking that could have been me . . .”
