Should be automatic if there is no other alternate. But seeing as this was the foreman, his taking part in deliberations tainted the jury.
The reason it is automatic is because the hiding of this info would affect whether the defense would have challenged this juror for cause, which they would have.

I should add, by automatic, I mean next to automatic. The defense simply had to say they'd have challenged and the judge would have declared mistrial.
