Fellow coach Ricky Wilson has already bowed out of appearing on the show when it crosses the televisual seas and Will.i.am may not return either.

Paloma has not hidden the online abuse she has received since she appeared as a coach on the show.

She said: "I’m quite fragile about it. I have moments when I don’t want to get out of bed because I don’t want to go back."

A spokesperson for the show told Metro that Paloma would not be leaving The Voice.

The final is on BBC One on Saturday, April 9.
