In a statement shared on Instagram, they wrote: "Sailors, I am so sorry to say but we have had to reschedule the Glasgow show to May 25, 2023. "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 have another date to move this to straight away. We will celebrate Gloria together!”

Providing Smith recovers in time, their next show will be at Resorts World Arena in Birmingham on April 25, before having over a month off after a run of shows in very quick succession.

The 30-year-old has been one of the world’s most famous pop stars since their breakthrough in 2012 when they featured on Disclosure’s breakthrough single "Latch", which peaked at number eleven on the UK Singles Chart.

A year later in 2013, Smith really cemented themself as a household name in the industry, when they were featured on Naughty Boy’s "La La La", which became a number one single in May 2013.
