When Wolf Winters took to the stage for his blind audition on The Voice, he had no idea he was about to become embroiled in the biggest scandal of the season.

And on Tuesday, the 31-year-old singer broke his silence on the matter, telling WHO magazine exactly what it was like to be at the centre of the bitter feud between coaches Guy Sebastian and Kelly Rowland.

'On stage, it was a little bit odd and we go on there not having a clue as to how many spaces are left on each team, so when Guy turned I legitimately thought I was through [and that] nothing was wrong,' he said.

After Kelly jumped up and accused Guy of cheating, the confrontation became so intense the program's executive producer was forced to step in.

'It felt like I was up there forever,' Wolf said of the moment the trio decided his fate.

Tense: 'Everyone kind of perked up and then things started to get a little bit weird,' Wolf said of the moment Kelly Rowland jumped up and accused Guy, who had turned his chair, of cheating because he already had a full team. Pictured Guy, Kelly and Boy George

Guy was eventually allowed to add Wolf to his team despite already having the maximum number of artists.

As a penalty, the Angels Brought Me Here singer will be forced to cut two competitors from his team during the Battle Rounds, while fellow coaches Kelly, Boy George and Delta Goodrem will only lose one each.

Despite having a greater chance of being chopped in the Battle Rounds, Wold said he was just 'so happy' to be given the opportunity to continue.

Heated! The confrontation became so heated, the program's executive producer was forced to step in. It was eventually decided that Guy could have Wolf despite already having a full team, but would lose two of his singers in the Battle Rounds

The drama started on Monday's episode when Wolf took to the stage to perform a dark rendition of Simon & Garfunkel's The Sound of Silence.

After Guy, whose team was already full, turned his chair, a showdown ensued between him and Kelly, who still had a spot to fill.

'Wait, you can't do that!' Kelly cried out, prompting fellow coach Boy George to say: 'You're full. You can't have this man anyway.'

Guy then tried to encourage Kelly to recruit Wolf, to which she replied: 'I'm looking for something specific. How're you going to tell me what to look for my team?'

She then complained: 'You're cheating. You are cheating!' At that moment, a producer stepped in to break up the fracas.

'The problem we have is that unless we get Kelly to take him, we potentially have to tell him that he's not through anymore,' the producer explained.

It was eventually decided that Guy could have Wolf despite already having a full team, but would lose two of his singers in the battle rounds.

Awkward spot! On Monday's episode Guy tried to encourage Kelly to recruit Wolf. 'I'm looking for something specific. How're you going to tell me what to look for my team?' she angrily replied, before she declined to take Wolf and a producer had to step in
