When Artem announced he would be taking a break from the ABC show on January 20, it was reported that he did not give the reason for his exit at the time. The only information Artem gave was that he was experiencing unexpected health complications. However, he also noted that his goal was to focus on recovering as fast as possible so he could rejoin other cast members on the incredible tour.
