In Flames announced the news on the band's social media accounts, telling fans they had "parted ways" with Tanner Wayne.
In a statement released on Instagram, In Flames said: "It is with profound gratitude and and appreciation that we announce our creative decision to part ways with Tanner Wayne.
"His dedication and musicianship over the past several years has left, and will continue to leave, a lasting mark on this band.
"We wish him nothing but the best."
The Swedish band, which was formed 35 years ago, concluded: "We appreciate your support and understanding at this time and hope to see you all on tour this summer."
Tanner, 37, joined In Flames in July 2018 when he replaced drummer Joe Rickard.
The US musician had begun his drumming career in the hardcore punk band Underminded in 2006, but only featured on one album.
He went on to drum for Chiodos and Suicide Silence before his seven-year stint with In Flames.
Tanner's shock exit from the band came just days before they kicked off their European tour in Estonia.
For the next month, the group - consisting of Björn Gelotte, Anders Fridén, Chris Broderick and Liam Wilson - will be performing across central Europe, eventually wrapping up Sweden.

But despite Tanner walking away, the shows will go on.
In Flames has already recruited a new drummer who accompanied them on their opening night in Tallin, Estonia, on Monday.
Jon Rice has stepped in for the band's high profile tour and appears to have slotted right in.
Alongside a photo of himself playing on stage, Jon wrote on Instagram: "Show #1 done. Thank you for the warm welcome, Tallinn.
"And thank you to @inflames for having me and trusting me with your tunes."
In Flames was originally formed by guitarist Jesper Strömblad in Gothenburg out of the Swedish death metal scene in 1990.
The lineup has changed multiple times over the past three decades, however vocalist Anders Fridén and guitarist Björn Gelotte have remained consistent since 1995.

How To Contour Your Nose According To A Professional Make-Up Artist
Like most millennials, the first evidence of nose contouring I saw came courtesy of Kim Kardashian and her make-up artist Scott Barnes in 2015. The grainy image uploaded to Instagram caught the SKKN By Kim founder mid-glam with a paint-by-numbers-style arrangement of contour streaks all over her face, which, even before being blended out, proved how effective light and shadow trickery could be when creating a sculpted look. Kardashian and Barnes weren't inventing the wheel here, this artful face contouring hack is steeped in history - it was once most closely associated with stage performers. Ballet make-up in particular has long drawn on the art of contouring to emphasise character traits in productions. Nonetheless, a decade ago that candid snap spread like wildfire, igniting a whole new generation of beauty buffs intent on snatching everything from their cheekbones to their décolletages, legs and noses. Nose contouring especially is enjoying a revival at the moment, with 34.2K TikTok tutorials dedicated to mastering the art. The latest viral nose contouring video to blow up our feeds is all about lifting - so can you really paint on a nose job in seconds? With a cool 5.4 million views and counting, the video sees beauty content creator @velabeauty draw up what she calls a 'lifted nose contour'. Inspired by TikToker @kittyprincessgat, using the E.l.f Cosmetics Halo Glow Contour Beauty Wand, £9, the lifted look begins with two dots of contour at the base of the nose near the nostrils, followed by a horizontal line over the tip of the nose and two lines painted down the bridge, before everything is carefully and thoroughly blended out with fingertips. The results are impressive and @kittyprincessgat even questions, 'is this nose catfishing?' From lines to dots, circles and crosses, in the last few years we've seen a real evolution of nose contouring hacks crafted to alter the look of our noses with a few quick swipes. Some rather niche methods - presumably produced to pick up views on TikTok - have promoted using tweezers, bobby pins and forks to take the guesswork out of product placement. As someone who contours her nose every day, I can attest to its transformative powers. Before getting a liquid nose job, I looked to contouring to help me define and lift my nose shape. Even thought I unapologetically adore my post-filler nose, I still never consider my make-up routine complete without a little Kim-Kardashian-style contouring. 'Nose contouring is all about defining the nose,' says make-up artist and Grazia Beauty Panel member, Lan Nguyen-Grealis. 'You can create the illusion of more symmetry (if that's your MO) with make-up. It's standard practice with a lot of my clients and it's a long-practiced way of balancing features where there's the desire to do so.' When picking the right products to contour with, Nguyen-Grealis advises sticking to cream sticks and powder that are 'no more than two shades darker than your skin tone and they should have taupe undertones rather than orange'. As for highlighting, again use a cream stick or powder that is one to two shades lighter than your skin tone. Sameeha Shaikh, beauty writer, trying the nose contouring hack It's easy to get this hack wrong because the placement is pretty precise. To avoid mistakes, Nguyen-Grealis recommends being light-handed when it comes to application. 'Using a small brush to apply will help give a more natural and accurate finish as you'll end up with less product build-up and it affords greater precision. Sometimes applying the contour direct to skin delivers a look that's too harsh and obvious, because the resultant streak is more difficult to blend out, especially if you're a beginner.' Nguyen-Grealis warns against using shimmery products, 'they reflect too much light to look like a natural contour,' she adds. Now for the fun part, Nguyen-Grealis explains her three steps to the perfect nose contour: Base: Start off with your usual base and ensure everything is blended in well. Contour: Using your contour stick or with a straight edge or angled brush, draw two straight lines down the sides of the nose. Start from the inner corner or your eyes following the side of the natural bone structure. Add some shadow under the tip of your nose to lift it and blend. Highlight: Using a concealer or highlighter apply straight down your nose bone in the centre and dot it at the highest point of the tip of your nose. Then evenly blend with a small fluffy brush or beauty blender sponge. Sameeha Shaikh, beauty writer, trying the nose contouring hack 1. Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand What the brand says: This creamy liquid formula that is both buildable and blendable, and provides a natural-looking sculpted finish. What we know: Viral and frequently duped for good reason, the wand is enriched with treated pigments that lend a natural, uniform contour, and siloxanes that give the product its light and breathable consistency. Sameeha Shaikh, beauty writer, says: 'I havent been able to part with this since I was first introduced to it last year. Having always favoured cream compacts, this wand offers a featherweight yet seriously pigmented formula that is easy to apply just about everywhere thanks to its sponge applicator. Importantly, the shades on offer are rich and cool, so I was easily able to find my match with Tan, which offers up a medium-deep hue that chisels while lending my skin some glow.' Pros Easy to use wand appliator Shades are cool not orange Cons 2. Victoria Beckham Beauty Contour Stylus What the brand says: 'A slim, targeted sculpting stick that takes the guesswork out of contouring, for smooth, controlled application.' What we know: Victoria Beckham certainly knows how to set a trend and her beauty brand's take on contouring has just done that. Pulling away from chunky contour sticks that don't allow much room for precision, this Contour Stylus fashions as the antidote with a blendable, nifty stick that allows you to get really precise. Sameeha Shaikh, beauty writer, says: 'As a nose contouring obsessive, this product has been a real game-changer. I can forgo brushes and beauty blenders completely and rely on this stick and my finger tips alone. I especially love being able to create precise lines around the tip of my nose for a more believable, lifted look.' Pros Small and precise Super blendable Cons Won't cover larger areas easily 3. E.l.f. Cosmetics Halo Glow Contour Beauty Wand What the brand says: This contour wand features a cushion-tip applicator that helps to create a natural-looking sculpted and radiant complexion. With a liquid texture, the formula is easy to work into the skin and blends with ease. What we know: Another viral beauty buy, this is the same product used by TikTokers @velabeauty and @kittyprincessgat, and we can see why. Its foolproof applicator and easy to blend formula means you can contour your nose in 30 seconds flat, plus the formula is enriched with 2% skin-loving and hydrating squalene to make you glow. Sameeha Shaikh, beauty writer, says: 'With an easy-to-use applicator, blendable glow-giving formula and accessible price point, it is hard not to love this product. It provides natural definition that can be built up and always leaves my skin with covetable radiance.' Pros Affordable Small and easy to carry Cons Shades can appear more warm than cool Sameeha Shaikh is Grazia's beauty writer, covering all categories to bring you insights on the latest trends, industry news and the products you need to know about, viral or not (most probably viral).

We Tried The Lululemon Maxi Dress Everyone's Obsessed With – And Yes, It's Worth the Hype
What's the most fashion forward dress you can wear this summer? That viral Nobody's Child polka dot dress? A celeb-approved Dôen dress? Neither, actually, if the internet is to be believed. No, it would seem that the dress of the season is a maxi from Lululemon. You might be more familiar with Lululemon as the go-to spot for buttery soft Align leggings and athleisure sets that take you from Pilates to brunch with ease, but the activewear brand evidently has a few more tricks up its sleeve. The most recent addition that's calling our attention is the brand's 2-in-1 maxi dress. Unlike most dresses we wax lyrical about, the Lululemon 2-in-1 maxi is simple and largely devoid of intricate details and trendy patterns. Yet, it more than manages to justify its £128 price tag thanks to its genius versatile design. As the name suggests, the dress can be worn two ways: as a strapless drop-waist maxi, and as a long skirt with the bodice folded over. As well as offering an easy blank canvas that can be dressed up or down with ease, the maxi dress also benefits from the brand's activewear know-how and is crafted from its signature four-way stretch, sweat-wicking and naturally breathable fabric that feels luxe while keeping you comfortable and looks good on an array of body types. ©Instagram/@christinalasekstyling 2-in-1 Maxi Dress in Green I could go on and on about how effortlessly elegant and wearable the Lululemon maxi dress is, but that's no use to you without some styling guidance, and the multi-wear dress presents an array of styling options. On our Instagram feeds, influencers are sporting the strapless dress with a raffia bag and wedge heels or suede sandals for a relaxed sunny day. Of course, you could also lean into the athleisure of it all and wear the dress with a denim jacket and chunky trainers or dress it up with kitten heels and plenty of gold jewellery. As a skirt, it'll work wonders with a baby tee and elevated flip flops on holiday, while a boho blouse and cowboy boots will put you in a festival state of mind no matter if you're heading to Glastonbury or not. The Lululemon website proclaims that the dress is 'voted most versatile', and if I'm being honest, we're inclined to agree. As with most viral hits, the 2-in-1 maxi is also selling out fast, so if you manage to find your size in stock, we suggest you skip the hesitation. Trust us, this is a dress you'll be wearing multiple ways for years to come. 2-in-1 Maxi Dress in Black 2-in-1 Maxi Dress in Brown 2-in-1 Maxi Dress in Ivory Main image credits: ©Instagram/@meg_legs @iamcarissarenee Hitanshi Kamdar is a senior commerce writer for Grazia.

Meghan & Harry keep cashing in by piggybacking off the royal family – it's disgusting, expert says
Despite trying to "reinvent themselves", the pair are yet to settle on a particular niche MONEY MAD Meghan & Harry keep cashing in by piggybacking off the royal family – it's disgusting, expert says MEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry keep raking in money by "piggybacking off" the royal family, slammed a royal expert. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down as senior working royals in 2020 and quit the UK. Advertisement 6 A royal expert accused the Sussexes of piggybacking off the royal family Credit: Getty 6 The Duchess, 43, saw her Netflix show With Love, Meghan in March this year Credit: Netflix 6 Meghan corrected Mindy Kaling on her name in the docuseries Credit: AP The couple have since been embroiled in a bitter feud with the Firm. Harry, alongside his wife, has continued to drag his family name through the mud, from their 2021 Orpah interview to his 2023 memoir Spare. And, the latest blow to their fractured relationship came when the Duke of Sussex dropped some extraordinary bombshells in a BBC interview last month. He filmed a rare sit-down chat after losing his appeal against the decision to remove his taxpayer-funded security. Advertisement But since turning their backs on the Royal Family, the Sussexes have also battled several stumbling blocks while trying to carve out their new identities. Meghan, 43, has this year released her latest Netflix series With Love, Meghan, in which she hosted Hollywood pals. Shortly after came the roll out of her brand As Ever, despite the company facing a series of setbacks. The mum-of-two then dropped her second podcast, Confessions Of A Female Founder. Advertisement Harry meanwhile has been busy working on his Polo documentary on Netflix, and as ever his Invictus Games. But despite trying to "reinvent themselves", the pair are yet to settle on a particular niche, experts blasted previously. I've dubbed Lilibet the 'jigsaw girl', Meghan's bizarre photos shows exactly why Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive Show, esteemed former royal correspondent Charles Rae accused the Duchess of still using the Royal Family for profit. "I've got no objections to Meghan and Harry making money," he told esteemed royal correspondent Bronte Coy. Advertisement "None whatsoever. However they want to operate now is fine. "It's their royal connections that really irritate me. And they're piggybacking off of that a great deal. 6 Meghan is also dropping weekly episodes on her new podcast Confessions of a Female Founder Credit: Meghan, Duchess of Sussex/Instagram 6 The couple have launched a barrage of attacks on the Royal Family since quitting the UK Credit: AFP Advertisement 6 The pair stepped down as senior working royals in 2020 Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk "But I think Meghan is the one who's driving everything. "And I think she will eventually come a cropper with all this. "I mean, she says, 'I don't want to annoy the public'. Well, why not? Advertisement "She's annoyed everybody else. You know, I mean, you know, she's. she's a very annoying person in my view." But fellow expert Sarah Hewson, added: "I think it is in everyone's interest if she is able to make a success of this and make money off the back of this, because we know they've got a very expensive lifestyle, not least the security costs. "And Prince Harry just having lost that court of appeal case, it is in everyone's interest, the Royal Family included, if they are able to be self-sufficient, if they're able to build a life, Prince Harry can do his philanthropy. "Meghan can launch the business. I mean, I think that suits everybody." Advertisement Royal experts previously slammed Meghan for using her royal title on a gift card, telling her "you can't have it both ways". Meghan and Prince Harry agreed they wouldn't use their HRH titles after they broke from the royal family - but the Duchess of Sussex seemingly still uses it with her friends. But, in a recent podcast interview, a photo showed a gift basket of ice cream and strawberry sauce Meghan sent to Kern Lima a year ago. With it came a note on monogrammed paper, signed: "With the compliments of HRH the Duchess of Sussex." Advertisement Sources said that while Meghan and Harry do still have their titles, they agreed not to use them for "commercial purposes". The source said the note was a "personal gift" but the couple don't publicly use HRH. Meghan also awkwardly corrected her Hollywood pal Mindy Kaling on her cooking show. A timeline of Prince Harry's family feud IN 2018, the Sun told how "simmering tension The first hints of friction reportedly came after William was introduced to Meghan when she was staying at Kensington Palace. Once she'd returned home to Canada, William and Harry sat down for a brother-to-brother chat. He knew Harry was already head-over-heels for her but it has been claimed he advised him to take it slowly. The younger prince reportedly didn't take too kindly to the advice, with one royal source saying he "went mental". Then in June 2019 Harry and Meghan officially split off from the charity they shared with William and Kate. The Royal Foundation will be divided between the Sussexes and Cambridges as the couples focus on their own separate charitable endeavours. Prince William and Prince Harry first established the Royal Foundation in 2009 before Kate joined two years later shortly after their engagement was announced. The trio would often appear together at events and the Foundation had huge successes with projects like the Invictus Games for injured veterans and the mental health Heads Together campaign. The Royal Foundation said the decision was made following the conclusion of a review into its structure - but added both couples will continue to work together in the future. Harry and Meg were living in close proximity to Kate and Wills within the Kensington Palace estate, but they switched to Frogmore Cottage in Windsor before baby Archie was born. The move further increased rumours of a fallout. Harry also hinted in his ITV documentary "Harry and Meghan, An African Journey" that he and his brother had grown apart. In 2021, Harry and Meghan give their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey where Harry accused his dad of cutting him off financially. Harry then jetted back to UK to join William in unveiling a statue to their mother Princess Diana in the grounds of Kensington Palace. But sources claimed William didn't want to attend the memorial amid their ongoing rift. In 2022, just before their grandmother the Queen died, sources claimed Kate acts as a "peacemaker" between the brothers. Harry claimed his brother "knocked him to the floor" during an argument about Meghan, in his memoir. In Spare, Harry said William branded Meghan "rude" and "difficult" during a row. Harry alleged William "grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and … knocked me to the floor". He said he was left with a visible injury to his back following the argument in 2019 at Nottingham Cottage on the grounds of Kensington Palace, where he was living at the time. In January 2024, Harry flew in to be with Charles after the monarch's shock cancer diagnosis. Harry flew back to the US the following day - without seeing Wills. Mindy said: "People wouldn't believe that Meghan Markle ate at Jack in the Box." Advertisement Meghan fired back with: "It's so funny, too, that you keep saying Meghan Markle. You know I'm Sussex now.' The late Queen Elizabeth II honoured Harry and Meghan the titles of Duke and Duchess of Sussex for their 2018 wedding. There have been calls for the couple to be stripped of the titles after blasting the royals on their Oprah Winfrey tell-all, six-part Netflix series Harry & Meghan and shock memoir Spare. The California-based pair have also attracted criticism for only visiting Sussex once when they held several engagements seven years ago. Advertisement This comes after the Sussexes were last night blasted for invading their own privacy after releasing a video of them twerking to induce labour. The mum-of-two posted a cringey hospital dance clip yesterday to celebrate daughter Lilibet's fourth birthday. It showed the former actress, heavily pregnant with their second child, making rowing movements and shimmying her shoulders beside a bed. Prince Harry also shuffles across in a hoodie to the strains of then-viral pregnancy hit The Baby Momma Dance. Advertisement Meghan shared the 80-second video with her three million followers on Instagram after earlier posting photos of her daughter. But royal expert Ingrid Seward last night said Meghan was a hypocrite as the couple regularly whine about a lack of privacy. She told The Sun: 'They can do what they like but why put it online? "Does Meghan have no boundaries? I think it's vulgar, unnecessary, attention-seeking. Advertisement 'They make such a point about privacy and security and then they put stuff out there. Meghan can't resist putting it out there. 'I think it's completely hypocritical for everything she stands for. It's very embarrassing.'
