Lewis Capaldi announced yesterday evening that he will be cancelling all prior commitments from now until his performance at Glastonbury on June 24

.

Lewis was due to play shows in Glasgow, Dublin, London and Norway over the coming weeks as well as his debut at the Capital Summer Ball next weekend at Wembley Stadium. This is not the first time Lewis has cancelled shows after he postponed a string of live performances in 2021 to focus on recording his album.

Speaking of his diagnosis on the Jonathan Ross show, the jokester musician said: “People think I’m on cocaine a lot and I’m not! … Now I’m the poster boy for Tourette’s, and I’ll accept that.” The star also revealed that he had since had botox in his shoulder to try and control his tics and is glad he went public about it because he now feels less "isolated".

During a performance in Frankfurt in February, Lewis had a Tourette's flare up as he performed his closing song Someone You Loved and fans had to help him push through the final chorus of the tune by singing along. Lewis's nurse mum, Carol, 56 and fishmonger dad, Mark, 56, also expressed their concerns over their son's health in his Netflix documentary as they questioned whether or not the fame was worth it.

"My mum had to come down to calm me down, lie in bed with me and I was having panic attack after panic attack and the whole week after I felt off." Speaking to fans ahead of a special screening at Glasgow's Every Man Cinema before the release of his Netflix documentary, he said: 'I'm alive and living. I've not been very well.
