Former S Club 7 singer Rachel Stevens is the latest judge to join 'The Voice of Ireland'.

It comes after The Saturdays member Una Foden was announced as the third judge to join the TV show.

"I'm delighted to be a part of the fantastic team behind the Voice of Ireland, I love the show and I can't wait to sit in that chair," Una said.

"I know the talent that Ireland has to offer so that button is going to see a lot of action," she added.

While Rachel said "I'm a big fan of The Voice so I can't wait to join the team of coaches on the Voice of Ireland this year."

"I'm sure it will be great fun, but most of all I'm looking forward to listening to the great vocal talent that Ireland has to offer each week and to securing a team of people who have excited me enough to make me push that button for them," she added.

The search for the next voice will begin shortly, when filming of the blind auditions starts, followed by the battles in November.

The show airs on our screens in January.

Singers Niall 'Bressie' Breslin and Kian Egan will be taking their seats on the spinning red chairs, along with Una and Rachel.

The two new judges have 11 chart topping albums and 24 singles between them.
