“American Idol” contestant Wyatt Pike has left the ABC reality competition despite making the top 12. On Monday’s episode, the first live show of the season, host Ryan Seacrest announced that Pike had dropped out.
“Before we get to the results, I have to tell you that finalist Wyatt Pike will not be competing in the competition,” said Seacrest. “He had to drop out — but we wish him the very best.”
There was no reason given for Pike’s abrupt departure, though a rep for “American Idol” told People that Pike left due to “personal reasons.”
Pike, a Utah native, hinted in an Instagram post a few days ago that he was already back home: “Something to feel this through: home,” he wrote. “Thankful for the rollercoaster I’m on today.” See the post below:
