As OK! previously reported, Levine left The Voice in 2019 after spending 16 seasons on the popular show. At the time, he explained that he wanted to focus on time with his family.
"I was ready to not be doing it anymore ... for a little bit," he shared in a 2019 interview with Howard Stern. "When it all naturally happened, I was like, 'Okay, this feels right.' For better or worse, the moment in which we decided to walk away felt really good. This was the right time for me to go."

Adam Levine left the show to spend more time with his family.
"For eight-and-a-half years, I was so busy — [I] had the band, [I] had The Voice," he continued. "I was beyond fortunate to go through all of it because it was a life-altering experience being on that show ... and then it got to the point where I got married, I had two kids, and I wanted to spend time with them."
