This season of American Idol has seen three people drop out of the competition so far.

On the April 2 episode, contestant Sara Beth Liebe bowed out of the competition after revealing that she was struggling being away from her three young children. “This opportunity is really rad, but this is actually gonna be my last performance ’cause my heart’s at home,” she told the judges before exiting the stage.

The next night, 23-year-old Kaya Stewart (daughter of Eurythmics singer Dave Stewart) also suddenly left the competition after she became ill. “I always want to give my best, and I’m not giving my best here,” the singer said before leaving the competition.

Finally, 19-year-old Beckett McDowell (aka Beckett Rex) left the show after making the Top 26, leading to Paige Anne getting a second chance to compete. “I’m not going to say why I didn’t continue in the competition, but I will say that it was my choice,” Beckett shared on Instagram.

Now that we’re down to only 12 contestants, we don’t expect to see any more people drop out of the competition, but who knows how things may shake out?
