Publish date: 2024-05-09

Niall Horan embarked on a tour to promote his album, The Show, and also filmed episodes of the NBC show for season 24. With so much on his plate, scheduling conflicts were bound to happen. Country duo Dan + Shay are temporarily replacing the coach on The Voice.

Why is Niall leaving The Voice?

Niall Horan is leaving The Voice because of other work commitments temporarily. He left the rehearsals on season 24, but don’t worry, he will be back for the knockout performances before his upcoming departure.

He already had to step away from filming season 24 due to his concert schedule. When he couldn’t make the knockout rehearsals, Niall said: “I’m on a bit of a festival run, I’m all over the place so I can’t be here.”

Niall has admitted he is “staying away” from watching The Voice US after “struggling” to make “hard decisions” as a coach, as per The Mirror. He also joked in April he was “leaving” – but now, it’s reality.

Who is Dan + Shay replacing?

Dan and Shay are replacing Niall Horan next season on The Voice, and they had a practice run for season 25. The One Direction star told Dan + Shay over FaceTime the mentoring sessions would be “good practice” for the duo.

The country pair is the first-ever coach duo on the show. After Team Niall’s first three Knockout hopefuls took the stage, John Legend exclaimed: “Dan + Shay are coaching the hell outta these artists!”

Dan and Shay were joined by newly minted mega mentor Wynonna Judd in tonight’s rehearsals. The duo are two close friends who formed a country duo in 2013 and have over 10 billion global career streams.

Who are the coaches for season 25?

The season 25 coaches on The Voice are Dan + Shay, Reba McEntire, John Legend, and returning season 23 coach Chance the Rapper. Dan + Shay revealed themselves from behind masks of Niall’s face.

“I know you’re coming on here for season 25, so it’s good practice for you guys,” Horan said to Dan + Shay. “I’ll send you all the info on the team. I’ll send videos, I’ll introduce you to them.”

Chance The Rapper’s return comes from his desire to “give platforms to young artists”. He told NBC Insider that he “wanted to be part of the process” for those who “need the right spotlight”.
