Irish musician and comedian cancels all of his gigs for the year
The Irish musician, comedian and TikTok star rose to fame during the pandemic when he started posting videos on social media and sharing tutorials on creating dance music and music production before posting comedy clips.
In the space of a year, he went from having a few thousand followers to now boasting 2.1 million TikTok followers, and the same amount on Instagram.
He is best known for his catchphrase: 'Follow me, I'm delicious.' He then used it as the title of his podcast.
However, this week Garron announced he'd had to scrap his upcoming tour dates.
Posting across his social media channels, he explained: 'After a lot of thought, I'm very sad to have to make the difficult decision to reschedule all of my gigs for this year.
'Many of you will be aware of some of the issues I've dealt with in the past and unfortunately, over the last few months I have been dealing with a lot of these issues again. It has gotten to a point where I really need to put all my energy into getting back on track.
'I'm disappointed that l'm not going to be able to see you all, but, hopefully I will see you in 2026 for the rescheduled shows.'
The 30-year-old continued: 'I'm very sorry to everyone that was coming see me.
'I understand many of you will have made arrangements to be at the gigs. If it was possible I would love to do them, but I have to accept that it isn't possible at this time.
'Thank you to everyone for all their support over the last couple of years, my break from making videos will also likely be a bit longer than I had first hoped, but I look forward to chatting to you all again soon!'
He concluded his post writing: 'Hopefully it won't be too long after that until l'm back. Until I see ye again. Stay Delicious.' https://www.instagram.com/p/DLA-KOGtq91/?hl=en-gb
He followed that up with another post, in which he explained: 'Many of you will be aware of some of the issues I've dealt with in the past and unfortunately, over the last few months I have been dealing with a lot of these issues again.
'It has gotten to a point where I really need to put all my energy into getting back on track.'
He added he was 'disappointed' not to see fans but had plans to reschedule his shows for 2026, with all tickets remaining valid.
'I'm very sorry to everyone that was coming to see me, I understand many of you will have made arrangements to be at the gigs. If it was possible I would love to do them, but I have to accept that it isn't possible at this time,' he said.
'Thank you to everyone for all their support over the last couple of years, my break from making videos will also likely be a bit longer than I had first hoped, but I look forward to chatting to you all again soon!'
Garron was next due to play in Killarney on Saturday, with other shows planned for Mayo, Dublin, Kerry and Belfast. He was also set to perform gigs in New York and Boston, as well as the Milwaukee Irish Fest and Chicago's Gaelic Park Irish Fest.
Earlier this year he faced backlash when posting a video online in which he said there was 'an immigration issue in Ireland'.
Soon after he deactivated his accounts for a brief period, explaining he also 'lost a lot of sponsors' and didn't leave his house for a week. More Trending
A few months later announced he would be taking a break from social media.
Garron has previously spoken about his struggles with agoraphobia.
'Eventually got to the point where I couldn't leave the house without having a panic attack. I spent about five years completely housebound, having panic attacks every day,' he said on The Late Late Show last year.

David Beckham sends public message to 'missing' Brooklyn on important family day
Brooklyn Beckham and his wife, Nicola Peltz, were said to have left David Beckham 'heartbroken' when they swerved the newly-appointed Sir's 50th birthday in May David Beckham has reached out to his firstborn, Brooklyn - who he affectionately calls 'Buster' - in the midst of the family's fierce feud. Brooklyn, 26, and his wife, Nicola Peltz, 30, were said to have left the newly-appointed Sir 'heartbroken' when they swerved his 50th birthday in May, which was attended by all of David's other kids: Romeo, Cruz and Harper. Brooklyn made no reference to his dad's milestone - or his long-coveted title - despite wishing his father-in-law and brother-in-law Happy Birthday on social media. However, David, appears to be trying to reconnect with the hot sauce enthusiast, despite Brooklyn's snub, following his latest post on Instagram. Paying tribute to 'Lady Beckham' on their wedding anniversary, David thanked Victoria for giving him four children. Sharing a snap of the couple from their lavish nuptials in Ireland, he wrote: "26 years today you said YES to me. Happy Anniversary and thank you for giving me our beautiful children and building the life that we have together. "I love you Lady Beckham @victoriabeckham @brooklynpeltzbckham @romeobeckham @cruzbeckham #harperseven." It comes after Brooklyn's brother, Romeo, also appeared to reach out to his older sibling following the tragic death of Liverpool footballer Diogo Jota. Diogo and his brother lost their lives on Thursday after their car crashed in Spain. Paying tribute to the footballers, Romeo shared a shared a passionate post about telling the people you love how much you appreciate them. Taking to Instagram with a string of broken hearted emojis, he shared a message, which read: "The people that truly love you and care for you will always be there." Brooklyn, meanwhile, is still keeping silent - apart from promoting his latest six-figure photoshoot with Nicola. The couple, who got married three years ago, posed up a storm for Italian brand Moncler in London, just two miles away from the Beckham's family home. Dubbed a "love letter" to the capital, the glossy shoot will have come as a bitter blow for Posh and Becks as Brooklyn and Nicola shot their pouty photos just two miles from the Beckham's mansion in Holland Park. And to make matters worse, on the day of the shoot, David was even closer to his son as he attended the Chelsea Flower Show, which was only a mile away. Photos from the shoot have finally been released, as Brooklyn and Nicola put on a very loved-up display. However, a source told us: 'The fact that Brooklyn was in the country and failed to see any of his family was heartbreaking. And not only that, but here he was posting about it.' They continued: 'Brooklyn had kept the visit quiet from not only his mum and dad but his siblings and extended family. It was terribly sad that he had flown thousands of miles to London and hadn't engaged at all. It would have been very easy to meet up.'

Sophia Hutchins told Caitlyn Jenner she loved her in one of final posts weeks before she was killed in horror ATV crash
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SOPHIA Hutchins told Caitlyn Jenner she loved her - just weeks before she was killed in a horror ATV crash. Jenner's manager Hutchins, 29, was on an ATV when she collided into a car before plunging 350 feet down a ravine on Wednesday. 5 Sophia Hutchins and Caitlyn Jenner had an extremely close friendship over the past decade Credit: Getty Images - Getty 5 Hutchins made the comment as she responded to a post Jenner shared from Israel Credit: Instagram 5 Hutchins paid the touching tribute underneath Jenner's post from June 13 Credit: Instagram The crash happened near Jenner's plush $3.5 million Malibu home but it's not known if she was at home at the time of the accident. Hutchins and Jenner had a close friendship over the past decade, and rumors swirled that they were dating. Jenner was recently in Israel and shared a picture of herself praying in Jerusalem. 'Love you,' Hutchins replied in the comments section of the post. Jenner shared her post on June 13 - just weeks before Hutchins' accident. Hutchins and Jenner had debunked rumors they were dating in recent years. They first met in 2015 and Hutchins revealed how they were very similar. "We have so much in common; we see the world so similarly and we both are such a good match for each because we challenge each other,' she told Jim Breslo, the host of The Hidden Truth. Hutchins, who is also transgender, paid tribute to Jenner, saying that she challenged her in different ways. The entrepreneur revealed Jenner was an inspiration when she was coming out. Hutchins, an economic and finance graduate, revealed she watched the interview when Jenner came out as transgender in 2015. At the time, Hutchins recalled how it made the process feel "more real," as reported by The Pepperdine University Graphic. In 2019, Hutchins spoke out about how she felt more comfortable once she had transitioned. "Before I transitioned, I felt like 'Yeah I'm definitely just a girl, but in the wrong body," she said. She admitted that she felt trapped. Hutchins and Jenner's relationship grew tighter, which fueled speculation about a romance. 'I am only ever with men and only ever have been. Stop the rumors! It's been years," she posted on social media. Hutchins also described Jenner as like a parent. She said their relationship had never been a sexual one. "It was very much friends but I understand why people perceived that way," she told People in 2021. "It's more parental. It's very parental, very protective." In the final Instagram post shared on her account, Hutchins spoke about healing. She shared pictures of herself fixing a broken candelabra. One of the snaps showed a broken branched candlestick, while the second picture showed it fixed. "From a headless cherub, missing one leg, arm and foot, to a healing cherub. "You can officially call me surgeon, Dr. Hutchins." Social media users have started to pay tribute underneath that post. 5 Hutchins spoke candidly about her transition - saying she had previously felt 'trapped' Credit: Instagram

Diogo Jota's 'best friend' at Liverpool shares heartbreaking tribute after crash
One player who was particularly close with Diogo Jota at Liverpool has written a lengthy tribute to his former team-mate after he died in a devastating car crash in Spain on Thursday Former Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher has published a lengthy tribute to Diogo Jota after the tragic news of his sudden death. The pair spent five years as team-mates at Anfield and struck up a particularly fond friendship, with Jota even referring to the Irishman as his closest pal on Merseyside. The football community was rocked on Thursday after it emerged Jota, 28, had died in a car accident alongside his brother, Andre Silva. The pair were travelling in a Lamborghini near Zamora in Spain when it veered off the road and burst into flames, killing both before emergency services arrived. Figures in the sport from across the world have paid tribute to the Premier League champion. And now Kelleher, who attended Jota's wedding to wife Rute Cardoso less than a fortnight prior to his death, has penned his own heartfelt message to his late former team-mate. "Jots. Can't believe I'm writing this right now and I'm finding it hard to put into words," read the 26-year-old's Instagram post. "I'm absolutely devastated by this news. All my thoughts and condolences are with Rute and their three beautiful kids and Diogo and Andre's family. It was a such a pleasure to get to know you over these years and to share some special memories on the pitch and even more so off it. "You became one of my closest friends in football. We bonded over all things sports watching any football match we could find often your brother Andre's game on your iPad. "I was surprised a lad from Portugal loved sports such as darts, snooker and horse racing so much and some of my best memories were having a laugh watching them with you. "You were such a fun genuine, normal down to earth and loving family man and always very competitive. I'm gonna miss our pre match programme quiz. I feel so blessed and grateful to have seen you on your happiest day, the day of your wedding and to be able to share in that day with you was special. I'll never forget it. "You were deeply loved by everyone at the club, the city and all over the world. It's gonna hurt for a long time and I'm gonna miss you so much but I feel so lucky to have got know you and have such a good friend. Love you Diogo." The testimony revealed the extent of their bond off the field, illustrated by the fact Kelleher was present for one of the biggest days in Jota's life. Kelleher, who joined Brentford in an £18million deal earlier this summer, and Liverpool let-back Andy Robertson were each present as Jota and teenage sweetheart Rute tied the knot in their hometown of Porto. Both Kelleher and Robertson were also at Jota's side when they took in some horse races at Gloucestershire racecourse together in March. However, it's clear their bond ran far deeper than sport alone. Jota previously attested to Kelleher being his best friend in the Liverpool squad in a union few might have expected. When asked whom his best Anfield pal was in 2024, the Portuguese replied: "Nowadays I would say Caoimhin. There have been a few departing the squad. "We play a quiz game, we play each other. There is one on the match day programme. It is a good way to start the match day action." One fan replied to Kelleher's sorrowful post, saying: "Sorry for your loss Caoimhin. We could all see how close you are. It's absolutely devastating." Republic of Ireland team-mates John Egan and Adam Idah also responded with love heart emojis as a show of support for their countryman.
