I love how honest he is about his Tourrette's. Shows how human he is. I absolutely love, love, love ❤️, Lewis's singing!! He is incredibly talented!!! Keep sharing YOU with us, Lewis!!

I adore this man’s honesty. Couldn’t have been easy for him. But the fans love him more for it. ❤

So proud of him. I also have tourettes and found that once i was more open about it the ticks were a lot better. Much love to your Lewis.

I love his attitude about it. How he jokes and keeps upbeat.

[ChrisLovesThisGame]

Good head on his shoulders. He should be proud of himself. Hasn't let any of it go to his head, and when he's thrown a curve ball he meets it with humour, honesty and by not taking life too seriously. I'm 38 and I can tell you that it's his attitude I admire the most.

I love him, he's funny as well as a fabulous singer! Take care sweetheart xx

This is how you conquer disability. With confidence, bravado and humor. A god among men

It's great that a young man who is famous admits his disability so that we know that famous people suffer too. I take my invisible cap off to you Lewis. I have had mental health since being 3 years old and now in my fifties. I think I have inward tourettes. I have a real urge at times to shout things out but fortunately for me they don't become verbal. I have OCD bad and apparently it is on the same spectrum as tourettes I was told. Anyhow, it's people like us that make the world go round 😊👍

I love this man. He's so humble ♥️

[Kbrplz]

As a person who has had severe tourettes my whole life, I understand what he has to go through. It’s really not that bad, and we don’t really think of it. Yeah, stuff happens every now and then, but just laugh it off and have a good time like Lewis. His fan base is really an amazing community, and it’s truly wonderful to watch. Much love to him ❤️

Your Fans will hold you up no matter what!!!

So beautiful 🥰. The song and the love shown

[samaracuthbert]

Thank you for cheering my disability 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[marimarxuach]

Good for him to embrace his Tourette’s Syndrome so that his audience understand. Before he began to explain, his audience thought he was having a panic attack because he would stop singing. When that happens, his audience begins to sing. It gives me chills and makes me cry 😢 ❤

[annyjonettles]

I love him!!! He is so hilarious!!!! Hope he's getting better and is able to get back to the stage when he can.
