“Aljaž and I have worked incredibly hard, and we were so excited to share our routine with everyone,” the statement continued.
“I am devastated not to be joining the rest of the cast on that famous dancefloor, but my focus now is on recovery. I’ll be cheering on all the amazing couples this weekend.”
La Voix has been one of the break-out stars of this series of Strictly, often making witty remarks to the judges or presenters which go viral on social media.
While regular episodes of the show are filmed at Elstree Studios in Hertfordshire, Strictly will continue this weekend with its annual trip up north to Blackpool, seen as an annual series highlight.
The six other remaining couples will compete and there will be live performances from Lewis Capaldi and Steps.
Former Strictly finalists Ashley Roberts, Danny Mac, Jay McGuiness and Layton Williams will also return for the special.
La Voix, who will miss out, is the alter ego of Chris Dennis, who said ahead of the show that he wanted viewers to get to know the man behind the drag act.
His character became a fan favourite last year while finishing as a finalist on RuPaul’s Drag Race UK.
In recent weeks, Strictly viewers have seen La Voix and her partner jive, waltz and foxtrot around the Strictly dancefloor.
The cabaret singer and entertainer has also previously appeared on ITV’s Queens For The Night and been a semi-finalist on Britain’s Got Talent.
