Kylie Minogue has revealed that she will be leaving The Voice in order to fulfil tour commitments.

The singer was bought in to this series of the show in order to help boost flagging ratings but has admitted that her schedule for her upcoming tour will leave her without any time to take part in the next series.

She told The Sun” "I'm touring later this year and the timings wouldn't work.

"We started filming in November last year and I'm on tour in September, October and November this year ... I have loved doing the show although there have been parts that have been really emotional."

When asked if she would be interested in returning if the BBC were to be flexible with her, she admitted that she would have to think about it.

A spokesperson for the BBC said: "We are aware of Kylie's commitments and are looking to accommodate them."
