The Voice competition is thinning out. Not only does each show narrow the field of contestants, but it was revealed on Monday’s episode that contestant Mor Ilderton had left.
It happened as his coach, Gwen Stefani, was introducing the contestants for her team’s next round of Knockouts to Mega Mentor Sting.
“We had Mor, who I stole, but he had to go home, so it’s just gonna be the two of them,” she explained to the “Roxanne” singer.

A rep for the show said there was no additional information available.
Ilderton’s departure on the final night of the Knockouts comes as a surprise, and only a week after Tanner Frick unexpectedly left Michael Bublé’s team. He had turned all four coaches during the Blind Auditions, but he chose to be on Reba McEntire’s team. After losing in the Battles, he was stolen and joined Team Bublé.
Fans speculated on social media that Frick had signed a record label.
In the case of Ilderton, he posted on social media last week that he would be releasing new music on Nov. 22.
Still, the show went on, with Bublé, McEntire, Stefani, and Snoop Dogg making the final decisions on their teams before the Playoffs begin Tuesday.
