LEWIS CAPALDI SHARES HEALTH UPDATE AMIDST HIS BREAK FROM TOURING
Written by Brittany Styles on January 2, 2024
Singer Lewis Capaldi posted the following message on Instagram, back in June, letting fans know that he would be taking a break from touring to focus on his mental and physical health.
Lewis has been quiet on the social media front since his June announcement until now. On New Year’s Eve, Lewis shared the post below to update fans on his progress. He mentioned in his post that he suffers from Tourette Syndrome and anxiety. He said that he’s been working with professionals to learn about and cope better with both. Lewis also dropped a bit of a surprise. He announced the release of an extended version of his album “Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent”, including 5 new additional tracks. That extended version is now available for purchase!
Although it wasn’t a simple decision for him to take a break, it seems Lewis made the right decision. He’s an example to all of us who feel overwhelmed, possibly from anxiety or just life. Sometimes you need to take a break and focus on YOU. Difficult, but necessary. I hope to see Lewis back on stage soon, happy and healthy both mentally and physically.
