"I know The Voice switched to ITV, but I'm not going to BREXIT The Voice UK. I'm happy to make ITV my home now. I love the UK."
Boy George's brief stint on the show saw him notably claim he once slept with Prince - a claim he later denied - and bore witness to a fiery exchange with fellow judge Paloma Faith, which subsequently left the New York singer in tears.
Presenter Emma Willis confirmed she will return to The Voice in its new ITV guise, but fellow host Marvin Humes has also confirmed his departure form the series.
