Breaking the news of the painful incident to fans, he wrote: “So unfortunately I took my mum away on her first holiday in a good few years and sadly she’s had quite a bad fall, resulting in her having to have surgery out here.
“She’s not in the best health with her other conditions and this has made it more complicated.
“My priority at the moment is my mum.
“Cheers Scott for covering me at radio 2 and Thanks to the people out here that have sent their well wishes.
“Praying for a successful surgery and a quick recovery. Will update you on mummy. Linda as and when I can x.”
