Liam Payne has been rushed to hospital in Italy after suffering from kidney problems. The former One Direction star was holidaying in Lake Como with his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, when, according to the Sun, he was rushed into the hospital after suffering crippling pain. The pop star is said to be in a bad way after being taken in an ambulance from their property but is undergoing treatment and is being looked after by doctors. Liam's health scare comes soon after he was forced to cancel his tour in South America due to his recent illness, but he assured fans they are working to re-schedule the dates as soon as possible.
Tori Kelly has shared more detail into her recent health scare, admitting it came as a shock to the star and 'out of nowhere'. The singer, who was hospitalised in July after collapsing at a restaurant due to blood clots, was speaking to Entertainment Tonight when she said that the ordeal came out of nowhere and that her heart rate was high, before adding that it was scary and confusing after finding out she had no family history of the issue. But, Tori saw the positives in her recovery and said that it made her even more grateful and not to take a single moment for granted.

The former Oasis star, who now fronts the band High Flying Birds, admitted on the Matt Morgan podcast that he likes the idea of taking to the stage for a string of shows in Vegas later in life when he feels too old to travel around on world tours. Meanwhile, noel's touring days aren't over yet as he's set to travel to Amsterdam, Italy and France for the band's upcoming gigs.
