Tourette's Syndrome explained as Lewis Capaldi announces tour break to 'adjust to impact' of condition

Lewis Capaldi has announced he will be taking a break from touring "for the foreseeable future," saying he is "still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette's". The Scottish superstar performed at Glastonbury Festival over the weekend, but struggled with his voice due to the condition.

The 26-year-old appeared visibly emotional while playing on the Pyramid Stage on Saturday (June 24). He told the crowd: "I’m going to be honest everybody, but I’m starting to lose my voice up here.

"But we’re going to keep going and we’re going to go until the end. I just need you all to sing with me as loud as you can if that’s okay?" The crowd helped him finish in what made for a memorable moment at the festival.
