Caroline Flack has announced she's left The Xtra Factor.

The 34-year-old presenter has decided not to return to host ITV2 spin-off of 'The X Factor' for a fourth series, but insisted she would always be a fan of the show.

Confirming the news on her Twitter and Instagram profiles tonight (11.06.14), she wrote: "I have a lil announcement (sic)."

She then posted a picture of her statement, saying: "Heyyyyyy! After three brilliant years of hosting Xtra Factor its time to pass the baton. It's been incredible and I'll never forget it (sic)."

She jokingly added: "How can I when I am married to Louis Walsh? It's all he ever talks about at home.

"I wish the new team all the best and look forward to watching the new series."

The brunette beauty, who was previously linked to One Direction singer Harry Styles, began presenting the series alongside former contestant Olly Murs in 2011.

The 30-year-old singer worked on the show for two seasons before Matt Richardson took over his role.

The news comes one day after Mel B confirmed she will be replacing Nicole Scherzinger and appear alongside Louis, Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole on the judging panel this year.

Auditions are set to kick off in Manchester next Monday June 16.
