In a post on Twitter, he wrote: "For everyone asking why I was only at the loft in Ormskirk for 30 minutes on Thursday please read below."

He then added in a lengthy statement: "Me and my tour manager were stuck in ridiculous traffic on the way from London, we got to the venue at 1.20 and tired to do as many pictures as possible in the limited time.

"During this time the venue owner Carl physically threatened my tour manager whilst being flanked by 2 doormen. He then repeatedly screamed at me to F**k Off out of his venue.

"Following on from this the venue owner Carl has repeatedly threatened to visit our houses with his Doormen since the appearance. We have now reported this issue to the police it is now with our solicitors."
