A further user commented: "The duo we never knew we needed Bobs hope you’re well mate, miss ya x"

Recently, Lewis was spotted out and about with another famous face as he shared a natter with Emma Watson at Wimbledon.

The Harry Potter star and singer looked in high spirits as they watched the match on Day 13 of the championships in London.

The pair pulled comedic poses for the cameras and were also seen deep in conversation as Czech Republic’s Marketa Vondrousova and Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur went head to head.

It came after Lewis spoke openly about taking a break from touring to focus on his mental health.

After his performance at Glastonbury he said he was going to take a break to come to terms with his Tourette's after he struggled to sing on the Pyramid stage due to his tics.

Lewis told fans after the huge gig: “First of all, thank you to Glastonbury for having me, for singing along when I needed it and for all the amazing messages afterwards. It really does mean the world.

“The fact that this probably won't come as a surprise doesn't make it any easier to write, but I'm very sorry to let you know I'm going to be taking a break from touring for the foreseeable future."

The singer, who was diagnosed with the syndrome last year, continued: "I used to be able to enjoy every second of show like his and I’d hoped three weeks away would sort me out.

"But the truth is I’m still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette’s on Saturday it became obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order, so I can keep doing everything I love for a long time to come."

Lewis, who is being treated with Botox injections to freeze muscles to try to control the tics characteristic of Tourette’s, added: “I know I'm incredibly fortunate to be able to take some time out when others can't.

"I'd like to thank my amazing family, friends, team, medical professionals and all of you who've been so supportive every step of the way through the good times and even more so during this past year when I've needed it more than ever.
