Overview
- Multiple outlets reported on Saturday that Maya Jama has held meetings with ITV producers and is in advanced talks to replace Emma Willis as host of The Voice UK.
- The Sun and downstream outlets say Jama has been reportedly offered the role but has not accepted while she and her management weigh other UK and US opportunities.
- An ITV spokesperson gave a cautious statement that the broadcaster is in discussions about talent for series 15 and will make any announcement in due course.
- The search for a new host follows Emma Willis's exit after 12 years to join the BBC's Strictly presenting team and comes as coaches Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones are also reported to be leaving.
- If confirmed, the hire would need to be settled quickly because production starts in the autumn, a change that could reshape the show's on‑screen lineup and scheduling commitments.
