Sam Smith self-isolates in £12 million mansion and admits to feeling unwell, being bored and worrying about their nan… but promises a ‘sing song’ over the coming days amid COVID-19 crisis

Sam Smith has become the latest star to self-isolate at home.

The singer, 27, took to Instagram to wish their followers the best amid the coronavirus crisis, as they admitted they were feeling “bored s**tless’ at home“.

In a three part Instagram video, he said: “Hello everyone! This is a weird, weird, weird time, oh my gosh, very, very strange.“

“I’m currently in my house. I have got a bit of a headache and allergies but I think I’m alright. But I wanted to stay in just to be safe.“

‘This is a weird time. I wanted to reach out to every one of you right now, and send my love. I hope you’re okay.“

Sam alluded to their mental health struggles in the past, point to their head and continuing: ‘I hope you’re mentally alright. It’s going to be challenging for anyone who gets in here a little bit, like me.’

They went on: ‘I just want to bring home and say how important this time right now is for all of us to remain a unit and look out for each other. All the older people – I’m worrying about my nan right now, I’m worrying about so many people.

‘Be patient and giving, and share things – share food people!’

Sam continued: ‘This is going to be an odd and different few weeks. I am going to try and do as much as I can to help. All I can really do – I am pretty s**t at everything else – but I can sing.

‘So if I’m better in a few days I am going to play some songs and record them. And we can hopefully all have a little sing song together.

‘It would be nice, we need it, music is a beautiful thing in a time like this.’

They signed off the message: ‘I love you all very much. Please stay safe. Drink loads of water. Read. I hate reading. Do things to keep busy. I am going to watch TV because I’m bored s**tless!’

People, stay at home and stay safe!
