"It's just been a really amazing season, too short," she shared with Entertainment Tonight ahead of the live semi-final on Monday. "It's mine and Blake's last season [together]... I can't even get the words out of my mouth 'cause it sucks."
She added: "I never in my lifetime would've pictured me doing something like this, and it's been one of the most fun things I've ever done. I love being a coach, I love watching the contestants grow, I love having an impact, it is super inspiring for me. And then, on top of it, I meet my best friend here, that's gonna be forever mine."

Blake shocked his fans when he announced his permanent exit from the show in a statement on Instagram, stating that the 23rd series would be his last. The country singer said he'd been "wrestling" with the decision for a while, adding: "It's time for me to step away from The Voice after next season.
He added: "This show has changed my life in every way for the better and it will always feel like home to me. It's been a hell of a ride over these 12 years of chair turns and I want to thank everyone at The Voice from NBC."
