Morrissey has been released from hospital.

The 50-year-old music legend is said to be “much improved” after collapsing on stage in Swindon, England, on Saturday night (24.10.09) with chest pains and breathing difficulties just one song into his concert but is not yet fit to resume his tour. A spokesperson for the star said: “Tonights (26.10.09) show at Bournemouth Opera House will not take place on medical advice.

 

 Morrissey has now been released from hospital and is under doctors' instruction to rest. Event organisers apologise for this unavoidable situation."

 

A statement on his official website adds: "Morrissey is in stable condition after his collapse in Swindon on Saturday night. Thanks go out to all his well wishers, more information will be posted as soon as it is available."

 

However, British TV presenter Jonathan Ross claims he spoke to the ‘This Charming Man’ hitmakers personal assistant and believes the singer – whose full name is Steven Patrick Morrissey - will resume his tour at Londons Royal Albert Hall tomorrow (27.10.09).

 

He wrote on his Twitter page: “He is resting and hoping to finish these dates.

 

“At the moment he's hoping to be fit to do London on Tuesday so should definitely be able to do Leeds I think.

 

Morrissey has already cancelled several dates this year because of undisclosed illness.
