The crowd of over 200,000 then began echoing his lyrics back to him as he stood and watched in tears from the stage. Upon his return today, he again held back tears as the crowd enthusiastically greeted him. "Glastonbury. It's so good to be back," the singer said from the stage. "I'm not going to say much up here today because if I do, I think I'll probably start crying. "But it's just amazing to be here with you all and I can't thank you all enough for coming out and coming and seeing me." Lewis Capaldi has made an emotional return to the iconic Glastonbury Music festival after taking two years off due to his struggle with tourettes syndrome. (Getty) ITV reporter Rishi Davda was in the crowd when he came on stage, telling the Today Show that Capaldi made a triumphant return. "When Lewis Capaldi's name was put up on the big screen and he walked out, it was not like anything I've ever experienced in a number of years at Glastonbury Festival," he said. "He sang every song with so much passion, but when he said that first note, you could see he was back doing what he loved. "That kind of radiated throughout the hundred thousand people potentially, that may have been watching. It was a really, really beautiful moment." Singer songwriter Lewis Capaldi walks onto the Pyramid Stage during day three of Glastonbury festival 2025 at Worthy Farm, Pilton on June 27, 2025 in Glastonbury, England. Established by Michael Eavis in 1970, Glastonbury has grown into the UK's largest music festival, drawing over 200,000 fans to enjoy performances across more than 100 stages. In 2026, the festival will take a fallow year, a planned pause to allow the Worthy Farm site time to rest and recover. (P (Getty) Capaldi took a two-year break from all public performances following the Glastonbury performance in 2023 to work on his physical and mental health. His return to the stage was supposed to be a secret, but there were some hints around the festival grounds leading up to the show, including lyrics from his songs plastered on a billboard nearby. Capaldi has always been open about his struggles with Tourette's syndrome, a neurological disorder that causes involuntary and repetitive movements and sounds, referred to as tics. music music festivals UK World entertainment CONTACT US

Lorraine Kelly 'left shaking like a leaf' after venture
The Glasgow-born star joined fellow presenter Dan Snow in a race up the 25-metre mast of the RSS Discovery in Dundee on Friday, with Snow reaching the top first by a few minutes. Lorraine Kelly said she was 'shaking like a leaf' as she scaled the mast of a historic ship that previously ventured to Antarctica, before abseiling to the ground. The feat aimed to emulate the working conditions the ship's original crew faced when it voyaged to Antarctica 124 years ago, albeit they endured harsh weather conditions and no modern safety precautions. Lorraine Kelly left 'shaking like a leaf' after venture (Image: Andrew Milligan/PA) Led by the Dundee Heritage Trust, the Discovery Mast Climb will be open for daring members of the public to experience in the autumn. After reaching the top, both TV stars waved for the cameras below. Snow spoke into the microphone of a camera drone above, with little-to-no fear in his voice. READ MORE: Lorraine Kelly at Glasgow restaurant on break from ITV show The Discovery Mast Climb is expected to draw attention from all over the world and is the only experience of its kind in Scotland. The Cutty Sark in London and the SS Great Britain in Bristol offer a similar challenge. After completing the climb, Kelly said: 'The experience in general was absolutely terrifying, and the only reason I think I got through it was because Dan Snow was doing it as well. 'He looked so calm as he was shimmying up the rigging. 'That made me feel a bit better, but I'm not good with heights, so it was scary. "I was shaking like a leaf, but it's really good to be back on dry land.' (Image: Andrew Milligan/PA) Kelly, a patron of the Dundee Heritage Trust alongside Snow, added: 'The Discovery ship is beautiful, she's the symbol of Dundee. I'm obsessed with all things Antarctica, and she went to Antarctica. 'She's an old girl, so she needs a lot of maintenance, and obviously that costs a lot of money. 'This was all about raising awareness of the Discovery and letting everyone in Dundee have a look at her.' She said the experience also highlighted Scotland's former ties to the whaling industry, which was abolished in Scotland in 1963.

It's about looking back on the whaling industry, which was a big part of the city, and looking forward to the fact that we don't do that anymore – thank goodness – and we're trying to save these beautiful animals, so it's a celebration of the future.' Asked if she would consider such a climb again, Kelly joked: 'I don't think I'll ever do anything like that again. I'll leave that to the experts.'

Love Island fans divided as two Islanders axed including 'winner'
Megan Forte Clarke and Remell Mullins were asked to leave the Island tonight after viewers voted for their favourite stars and they came in at the bottom of the list Love Island viewers have been left divided after a dramatic elimination saw two islanders dumped from the villa tonight (June 27), including one half of a couple previously tipped to win the entire series. The public have been voting for their favourite Islanders, and after the results came in, Megan Forte Clarke and Remell Mullins were revealed to be the public's least liked girl and boy in the villa. This meant they were asked to leave the island in the most recent instalment of the ITV reality show. Remell has been tipped to leave Love Island early ever since he stepped out on viewer favourite Alima, but Megan's exit comes as a surprise as only days ago viewers were predicting that she and her partner Tommy Bradley were frontrunners to win the entire series. Bookies indicated they were in the lead, with Betfred offering Megan at 15/8 and Unibet putting Tommy at 7/4 to take the Love Island prize home just last Wednesday (June 18). Fans also thought Megan was destined to be at the Love Island finale with Tommy by her side, as one previously tweeted: "I know Tommy and Megan are on the clear road to win Love Island UK but we actually can't let that happen." Fans have reacted to her exit, with one poking fun at her sudden fall from grace, saying: "Megan really quickly went from Hero to Zero." Another agreed: "Megan deffo had a chance at winning the show if she just stuck with Tommy." Someone else was delighted to see her booted out as a consequence for her actions, and shared: "Megan has been dumped? Thank God. What she did to Tommy was awful." Before she was voted out, Megan's love story took a dramatic turn this week. After being coupled up with Tommy since day one, the 24-year-old Irish beauty sparked outrage among viewers when she shared a secret kiss with fellow Irish islander Conor Phillips while Conor's partner Emily was away from the villa. After Emily returned, she confronted Conor about his betrayal in the Snug. She seemed particularly surprised that Megan had agreed to lock lips with him, saying: "That's quite intense… I thought Megan was more into Tommy to the point where she wouldn't have done that." Later that evening, Conor dropped another bombshell by telling Emily that he would be spending the night with Megan in the Hideaway. In the private bedroom the pair had another smooch, and Conor even gifted Megan his bracelet. Fans were left furious after both Conor and Megan hurt the feelings of the people they were coupled up with. One took to social media to say: "Conor didn't care one bit about dumping Emily. She basically did it without him asking." Another viewer fumed: "OMG not Megan and Conor going to the hideaway MINUTES after dumping Emily and Tommy." Poor Tommy was heartbroken to have lost Megan after going steady with her since the start of the show, and opened up to his friends Harry and Ben, admitting he just wanted to "sit in a quiet corner". Before going into the Hideaway with Conor Megan pulled Tommy for a chat, coldly telling him: "It's nothing against you, but I'm here to explore connections. I didn't have to come and tell you this but I do like you, so I am telling you."

Love Island fans slam 'misogynistic' star as he's given clear warning
Ben was warned to mind his tone by another co-star after calling Yasmin "irrelevant" and continuing to belittle her to other Love Island stars after dumping her Love Island's Ben has come under fire from viewers after making a series of "misogynistic" comments about fellow Islander Yasmin. Fans were left fuming after Ben continued to belittle Yasmin to the boys in scenes that aired tonight (June 27), calling her "a nobody". He already left ITV viewers incensed when he was shown calling the girl "irrelevant" last night (June 27) as they split up. Tonight Yasmin was seen updating Conor, Megan, Shakira and Toni about her clash with the taxi driver. She told her co-stars: "He said I've come out of my shell because of him, he said people only like you in here because of me." The girl went on to vent to Toni on the terrace the next day, joking: "Ben's head is as big as Majorca." Love Island viewers were quick to slam Ben for his disrespectful comments towards Yasmin on social media, with one raging: "Ben truly disgusts me. I wonder how he treats women in his family cuz this man is misogynistic as hell, he still saying wild shit about Yasmin." Another added: "Maybe Ben has selective amnesia but nothing he said was 'perfect'. His obsession with humbling women screams incel." Others suggested producers may have been involved in Dejon cautioning Ben to keep an eye on his behaviour, speculating: "Producers deffo told Dejon to speak to Ben about his 'tone' cus Ben received too much complaints." Ben and Yasmin's relationship has been a rollercoaster ride over the past few days. The pair were initially coupled up and even grew close under the covers in bed. However, things took a dramatic turn when Ben spoke to his friends about how he was no longer interested in her, and told Yasmin he wanted to "take a step back" because their connection had gone "from 0 to 100 real quick". He later told Shakira he had never had real feelings for Yasmin and claimed she had been the one to initiate intimacy between them. Yasmin confronted Ben after being encouraged by Toni to stand up for herself, only for him to repeatedly interrupt her and ask: "Are you done ranting?" Yasmin hit back, reminding him that it "wasn't the Ben show" and that the " world doesn't revolve around" him. As Yasmin walked away, Ben shouted after her: "This is amazing content… You've just given Love Island three weeks of content," before cruelly adding, "No man wants you in here" and branding her "the most irrelevant girl I've ever met". Fans were horrified by his behaviour, and one viewer called him "a real nasty piece of work" online. Another posted: "Nah Ben is actually a disgusting person. The way he just spoke about Yas and treated her there was genuinely one of the most uncomfortable things I've sat through."

Love Island fans in shock as ‘cheaters' Remell and Megan are sent packing in savage public vote
The dumped lad admitted he regretted ditching a bombshell in the other villa ISLAND EXITS Love Island fans in shock as 'cheaters' Remell and Megan are sent packing in savage public vote Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE ISLAND fans were left in shock as "cheaters" Remell and Megan were sent packing in a savage public vote. The departure came after the public were asked to choose their favourite boy and favourite girl. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 6 Ben. Harry and Remell were left in the bottom three after the public vote Credit: ITV 6 Shakira, Megan and Toni were the three bottom girls facing the public vote Credit: ITV 6 Megan was dumped from the villa in the public vote Credit: ITV 6 Remell was dumped from the villa in the public vote Credit: ITV In tonight's show while Shakira was arguing with Harrison, Giorgio got a text and everyone was sent to gather at the Firepit. The bottom three girls were then revealed as Shakira, Megan and Toni. And the bottom three boys in the firing line were Ben, Harry and Remell. Shockingly, Megan and Remell received the least votes from the public and were then immediately dumped from the villa. Alima furiously ended things with dumped Remell last night in an explosive showdown following his return from the sleepover. Remell had chosen to stick with partner Alima instead of pairing with new girl Poppy, who he spent the last two days snogging at every opportunity. During his time in the other villa, Remell made Poppy believe he was going to pick her. He told her: 'I'm being comfy around you still. It's the first time in, you know, the villa that I have felt like this, so it's telling me something.' He even made a shocking confession to the new bombshell and told her he might be 'done' with Alima. But he then changed his mind and Alima was thrilled to be picked, until she learned what Remell had been up to. OG Love Island girl and 'cheat' boy kicked out of the villa after explosive rows over secret kisses Alima soon confronted Remell in a bad-tempered chat in the garden and told him last night things between them were over. Meanwhile, Megan finally confirmed last night that she and Tommy were over, after spending recent days ramping up her connection with rugby lad Conor. No sooner had she told a delighted Conor about the development, he suggested they spend the night in the hideaway. The explosive move came after they shared two snogs on the Terrace behind smitten Tommy Bradley's back, infuriating fans. Megan and Tommy had seemed to be one of the dating show's most secure couples until this week, when her head was turned by Conor - sparking other Islanders to brand the situation 'wife swap'. And fans turned on 'nasty' Megan after she gleefully called Conor and Tommy's row over her "brilliant". 6 Emily was left feeling shocked at the public result Credit: ITV
