Sharing the news on Twitter, the singer wrote: “Sailors. I’m so sorry to say but we have to reschedule the Glasgow show to May 25, 2022.

“Myself and a lot of my team have been hit with a virus, that’s made us really unwell.

“I want to give you the best version of Gloria the tour and at the moment that’s not possible. It was also really important to me that we had another date to move this to straight away.

“We will celebrate Gloria together. All previous tickets are still valid for the new date.

“All my love, Sam.”
