The theft comes after fans of Leeds Festival took to social media to complain about Lewis being named among the top acts in 2023.

He responded to the backlash by posting a photo of himself smiling, with the caption: “F***ye. Dream come true to be one of the headliners for @OfficialRandL next year, see ye there ❤️x”

Over 20,000 people liked the tweet and congratulated him ahead of the festival.
