Lewis Capaldi reveals he has Tourette's and says diagnosis 'makes so much sense'

Scots singing megastar Lewis Capaldi has revealed he has been diagnosed with Tourette's syndrome.

The 25-year-old global sensation says he is undergoing treatment, including Botox injections, as he learned to lives with the condition, which is characterised by involuntary sounds and movements known as "tics". He revealed to fans on Instagram that he was going public with his diagnosis so people didn't think he had been "taking cocaine or something".

Capaldi's diagnosis comes days after the famously self-effacing star stripped to his underpants for an international billboard campaign to promote new single Forget Me - his first new song in three years. He admitted that he was relieved to get the diagnosis - after fearing he had a degenerative disease.
