It'll be all change at the The Voice UK next season with new presenters and judges too.

This will be Emma Willis' last year hosting as she has now joined Strictly Come Dancing as a presenter.

Alesha Dixon and Stacey Solomon will take over as presenters and in the big red chairs, Danny and the two Tom's will be leaving too.

Read on to find out more.

Alesha shot to fame as a member of girl group Mis-Teeq and has served as judge on Strictly Come Dancing and Britain's Got Talent.

She has previously hosted The Greatest Dancer and the Eurovision Song Contest.

Stacey came second on The X Factor in 2009, and is now known for hosting Sort Your Life Out and appearing on reality show Stacey & Joe with her husband Joe Swash.

Singer Cheryl and rapper Aitch will join as coaches sitting in the show's famous giant red chairs.

Cheryl launched her career with pop group Girls Aloud and later had several chart hits as a solo artist. She has recorded several songs with fellow judge Will.I.Am.

She also served as a judge on ITV's singing competition The X Factor.

Aitch is an award-winning Manchester-born rapper.

Destiny's Child singer Kelly Rowland will remain on The Voice coaching panel.

And so will Black Eyed Peas frontman Will.I.Am who has been on the show since its first series.

This comes after Sir Tom Jones said he had been dropped as a judge from the series, despite saying he wanted to stay on.

He said he'd been offered a smaller role.

A spokesperson for the show said: "We have loved working with Sir Tom Jones over the past nine years on The Voice UK.

"While he will no longer be a full-time coach on series 15, we continue to talk to Sir Tom and his team about his involvement in the next series."

Earlier this year, it was reported that McFly stars Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones would also not be returning to The Voice, after they shared a chair as joint coaches for the last two series.

The changes will take effect from the next series, which began filming on Friday.

The series currently airing on ITV was filmed in 2025.
