OLLY MURS has been forced to cancel his summer UK tour due to unavoidable knee surgery.

Among the cancelled dates is his show at Chewton Glen in New Milton, which was due to take place on Wednesday, July 13.

Olly has successfully had the operation on his knee but now has to spend the next six months in rehab.

He said: “I am absolutely gutted to have to cancel my summer tour this year, but unfortunately I’ve had to have new major knee surgery.

"I’m devastated I won’t be performing these shows, and can only apologise for any inconvenience caused. Rest assured I will be fighting fit for new music later this year.”

Refunds will be available from your point of purchase, keep an eye out for any emails from your ticketing agent.
