Alan Carr has taken to social media to reassure fans after experiencing "the worst cramp" which saw him collapse to the floor whilst performing on his Regional Trinket tour in Glasgow.
The 46-year-old comedian was performing to crowds in Scotland over the weekend, when he started to feel "shooting pains" in his leg.
The pain occurred during a part in his routine where he pretends to be actor Jason Statham.
Sharing a video of himself to Instagram last night (July 10), Alan explained: "I've been performing up in Glasgow and there's a bit in my routine where I pretend to be Jason Statham.
"I high kicked then I got the worst cramp ever. It was shooting pains and I was rolling around on the floor, so people thought it was part of the act.
"My lovely tour manager poked this crutch through the curtains. I had to finish the show."
The comic admitted that he has since dosed up on ibuprofen to help with the pain.
"I think I've torn it, but hopefully I'm going to have to rest," he added.
It came after Alan shared a photo of his leg and a bag of frozen peas to his Instagram Story.
Addressing the snap, the star said: "I put a very dramatic picture of me with some peas, but I'm fine. I just felt eggy and felt silly rolling around on the floor.
"I've never felt pain like it! I will solider on like I always do."
Alan's celebrity pals were quick to sent their support, with Carol Vorderman saying: "Oh Al."
Martine McCutcheon wrote: "Oh bless you. What a trooper! Rest up and take care of yourself tho please!"
Vanessa Feltz shared: "Worried about you. Should you be checked out by a GP or at A&E just to be sure?"
John Bishop added: "What a trooper - you are an example to us."
It comes weeks after Alan opened up on his "rubbish year" following his split from ex-husband Paul Drayton.
During an appearance on What's On Scotland, the comic reflected on the past 12 months alongside presenter Laura Boyd.
Alan - who announced the split in January - revealed he began writing a book about his marriage to Paul before their relationship fell apart.
"I wrote it before Covid," he told Laura, adding: "We had a week to go and it was all written and done. It was about me getting married and Adele getting ordained especially to marry me and Paul.
"But then, during Covid, the relationship fell apart, and I was divorced when we came out the other end. So it's probably my most personal [tour], but it sort of works and it's quite raw and I go to places that I don't normally talk about. It's like therapy really."
Alan explained that career-wise it has been "amazing", but shared that personal life has been "rubbish".
He continued: "Life's given me one of those years. Professionally, it has been amazing but personally, it's been a bit rubbish."
Alan went on: "I'm a grafter, I love working, I love coming up here [to Scotland]. I know there are some comedians who don't want to go above Watford, but not to come to Scotland is a no-brainer."
He insists that next year he is going to focus on his work-life balance and will disappear for a while to focus on himself.
"Next year, you'll probably see a bit less of Alan. I'm going to sort myself out," he added.
