A tweet from Iain read: "Thanks everyone. I've enjoyed every second of it. See you sometime in the future."
Iain apologised most recently for the way he conducted an interview with a Christian Concern campaigner.
The BBC also apologised for his interview about the Bible's teaching on homosexuality in which a Christian woman was labelled a bigot.
Libby Powell, from campaign group Christian Concern, appeared on BBC Three Counties Radio earlier this month
She was discussing the case of Revd Barry Trayhorn, a prison worker taking his employer to a tribunal amid claims he was forced to resign for reading a Bible verse about homosexuality.
Mr Lee asked if Revd Trayhorn would embrace gay people and when told by Ms Powell that he would, he replied "bit gay".
The BBC admitted the language the presenter used, and the tone in which he conducted the interview, was "at several points inappropriate".
I'm blocking so many people. I'll make it easy. If you think gays and lesbians are sinners, please unfollow me.

Iain Lee also apologised on air and said: "Last week I interviewed the Revd Barry Trayhorn and solicitor Libby Powell about their understanding of biblical teaching on homosexuality.
"I want to make it clear that I apologise for any offence that may have been caused over the way I conducted the interviews."
Sorry for any offensive my interview may have caused. I think this article says all that needs to be said. https://t.co/lT1L1RZQMF
