It looks as if Paloma Faith is done with BBC One's floundering singing competition The Voice.

The star took to her Instagram page for a rather cryptic message on the subject. "Last night I went down with the ship power dressing in possibly my last foray into reality tv shows. I may not be built for them but I am definitely built for getting lost in music. Caught in a trap. No turning back," she wrote.

The sentiment isn't entirely surprising; The Telegraph reports she has already spoken out about the level of online abuse she's received after becoming a judge on the show. "I'm quite fragile about it," she stated. "I have moments when I don't want to get out of bed because I don't want to go back."


Her spokesperson, however, told The Metro that the star won't be leaving the show anytime soon; which presumably means she'll return when the series moves to ITV1, following a massive ratings decline of 3.4M.

Both of the remaining acts Faith was mentoring on the show, Jordan Gray and Heather Cameron-Hayes, were eliminated on the 2 April show.

The finale of The Voice airs on BBC One 9 April, at 7.30PM.
