However, changes are on the horizon, as a spokesperson recently disclosed to The Mirror: "Stephen has absolutely loved being part of the Butlin's family - performing his stage shows in front of thousands of holiday makers across the country and the relationship with Butlin's remains hugely positive.", reports the Express.
"This change allows Stephen to explore new opportunities in the family holiday space - something he's incredibly passionate about."
Butlin's also shared their side, stating: "Stephen has been an incredible part of the Butlin's experience and continues to be a valued member of the family.
"Stephen's much-loved live show won't return in 2026 after three fantastic years, but we're thrilled to be working together on ongoing projects this autumn."

Britain's Got Talent star's cause of death confirmed after sad death
Dancer Chantel Bellew was a contestant on Britain's Got Talent in 2019 where she delighted the judges and audiences with her uplifting routines. She passed away in March this year aged 34. The cause of death of Britain's Got Talent star Chantel Bellew has been revealed three months after her sudden death. The late dancer passed away in March at the age of 34. Chantel found fame as a dancer who auditioned for season 13 of ITV's Britain's Got Talent in 2019 when she was 28 at the time. While on the show, she delighted hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly with her cheeky dance routines. After wowing in her audition, she advanced to the quarter finals - however, that season was ultimately won by singer Colin Thackery. In March it was revealed that Chantel had died after being rushed to hospital just weeks after her 34th birthday. Following an inquest into her death at Bolton Coroners' Court, it has been ruled that she took her own life and her death was ruled as suicide. The Manchester Evening News reported the cause of her death on Saturday. They quoted Chantel's mother, Jill Dawson described her as a "beautiful daughter" and "model student". It was noted that the inquest was told Chantel suffered with mental health problems for "quite some time". Assistant coroner John Pollard is quoted explaining that the tap dance star was in a "loving relationship" with wife Genna Timewell, but added: "Despite this she remained to some extent unsettled and unsure of herself." Her final moments were also documented during the hearing and it was reported she overdosed on painkillers on 17 March. The hearing was told that Gemma returned home at approximately 2pm and assumed no one was at home. The inquest heard that Gemma felt something "wasn't right" and that she was "really worried". She called her father-in-law, who said Chantel was not with him. She then texted Chantel who replied stating: "I'm good, I'm grand." Gemma then suggested they go to Wales for the weekend to "get away" and "leave it all behind". The inquest then heard how Gemma heard a noise in the attic and then saw Chantel "stumbling down the stairs" and "walking very unsteadily and looking disorientated". After calling 999 and being told it would be 40 minutes for an ambulance, Gemma drove Chantel to hospital - tragically she died over a week later on 22 March. Chantel's loved ones later set up a fundraising page to cover the cost of her funeral, writing: "It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our beloved Chantel, as we navigate through this incredibly difficult time, we want to honour her life and the beautiful impact she had on everyone who knew her." The statement on GoFundMe continued: "Chantel was more than a daughter, wife, sister, niece, cousin and friend. She was a kind, loving, and passionate spirit who brought joy and laughter to so many. "Chantel was a talent second to none who was the life and soul of every party, I am sure you will agree she was a character that nobody will ever forget. As Chantel´s friends, we would like to help the family give Chantel the showbiz farewell she deserves." As well as performing on BGT, Chantel worked in a supermarket before becoming a teaching assistant.
