So why did Blake Shelton leave ‘The Voice’ in the first place?
“I did this for 23 seasons without missing a single season, you know?” Blake explained. “I know how you feel, Pat Sajak!” Sajak hosted Wheel of Fortune for 41 years. Starting this fall, the legendary Vanna White will co-host, unfortunately alongside Ryan Seacrest.
“Because that’s how I was starting to feel,” Shelton admitted. “If you’re on back-to-back seasons, there’s really no time for anything else, you know?”
He then reasoned, “If you didn’t want to have a family and a life so much, you could do it, but something has to give. It was time for The Voice to be something that gives.”
