Gwen Stefani is leaving The Voice in 2024 and won’t be returning. Both the singer and Niall Horan will be replaced by Dan + Shay and Chance The Rapper in a major show switch-up. As a result of her departure, Gwen has been working on new music alongside looking after her three boys.
The Bananas singer is following in her husband Blake Shelton’s footsteps, who left The Voice previously. Gwen Stefani was out of the winners run when all of her singers were eliminated before the season finale. However, that’s the last time she’ll be competing on the NBC competition as a coach.

Gwen leaving The Voice in 2024 – Debunked
Gwen is leaving The Voice, with more time to focus on music after spending the holidays with Blake Shelton, and her sons. She’s “excited” and “worked on it for a long time,” she told Entertainment Online.
“I’ve finally landed in that place where I’m obsessed, where I can’t stop listening, so I feel like I’m somewhere,” she added. As a mother of three, Gwen said finding time for creativity can be difficult.
“I’m trying to find little pockets of time to make music and it still never gets old,” she shared. Shelton announced his departure in season 23, as he wanted to spend more time with Stefani’s kids at home.
Gwen Stefani is not returning to The Voice
Following her appearance, in which Gwen never won The Voice, she is not set to reappear in season 25. Shelton joked while on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in November 2023 that Gwen only done it for money.
He said: “And then the very next announcement was, ‘Gwen’s coming back!’ Maybe she doesn’t want too much family time, I don’t know. Money talks, OK? Money talks in this industry.”
Shelton and Stefani will now spend quality time together in Oklahoma. The judge will also reflect on a big anniversary in 2024 as next year marks the 20th anniversary of her debut album, Love. Angel. Music. Baby.
Major shake-up sends two coaches home
It’s not just Gwen leaving The Voice but her fellow coach, Niall Horan. Although Gwen was left with no singers on her team for the recent season, Niall had two wins during his time on the show.
Makes sense that two of the successful singers need time out to focus on other ventures, but fans are hopeful they return one day. “I hope he [Niall] comes back as coach after his world tour,” said a viewer.
“This coaching quartet alone is reason enough to miss the ones that are leaving after this season #TheVoice #VoiceSeason24Finale, penned a fellow fan.
