why fergie left black eyed peas

Fergie left the Black Eyed Peas primarily because she wanted to focus on being a mother. The group members have explained that she stepped away to devote herself to motherhood, which they respect as a hard and important job that she prioritizes. There are no hard feelings between Fergie and the group; they continue to support her and maintain a friendly relationship. Her departure also allowed the band to introduce a new singer, J. Rey Soul. Fergie has been focusing on her solo career and personal life, including co-parenting her son and managing her record label after her divorce from Josh Duhamel.
