Lewis Capaldi has cancelled all of his upcoming commitments ahead of Glastonbury later this month to allow himself time to “rest and recover”.

The Brit Award-winning singer, 26, apologised to his fans in an Instagram post on Monday, explaining that he is “struggling” after a busy few months which saw him release his chart-topping second studio album Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent.

Capaldi shared earlier this year how the pressures of fame have impacted his mental health in the Netflix documentary, Lewis Capaldi: How I’m Feeling Now.

Writing on his social media, the Scottish singer said: “Hi everyone, hope you’re well. This is a really difficult message and one that hurts me a lot to have to type. “But I’m really sorry to say that I’m going to have to cancel all commitments from now until I play Glastonbury on June 24th. “It’s been such an incredible time leading into this new album, and seeing all of the support from everyone has been beyond anything I could have ever dreamed of. “That said, the last few months have been full on both mentally and physically, I haven’t been home properly since Christmas and at the moment I’m struggling to get to grips with it all. ”He continued: “I need to take a moment to rest and recover, to be at my best and ready for Glastonbury and all of the other incredible shows coming up so that I’m able to continue doing what I love for a long time to come. “I need to take these three weeks to be Lewis from Glasgow for a bit, spend some time with my family and friends and do normal life things that are an important part of me feeling better.
