ITV has confirmed The Voice Kids is being rested after seven series with the broadcaster.
Viewers had mixed reactions to the news on social media, with many fans suggesting they preferred this version of the singing reality competition to the show featuring adult hopefuls.
Hosted by Emma Willis, the most recent series starred will.i.am, Pixie Lott, Ronan Keating, and Danny Jones as mentors.
The 2023 run, which concluded earlier this month, saw identical twin sisters Andrea and Shanice Nyandoro – coached by will.i.am – triumph. They won a holiday to Universal Orlando Resort in Florida as part of their prize.
