The Wanted singer Max George has been rushed to hospital in the early hours of Tuesday morning, marking another health scare just weeks after undergoing chest scans for a lung issue.
The 37-year-old shared a photograph from A&E on social media accompanied by the message “What now ffs” and “This sh*t ALWAYS happens in the middle of the night.” He concluded the post with “Poor Albert,” referencing his beloved pet Pitbull.
George later posted a selfie to his Instagram stories with the caption “Running HOT,” though he did not provide details about what prompted the latest hospital dash or his current condition.
The emergency visit comes approximately one month after the singer revealed he had undergone tests at the same hospital where he received multiple heart surgeries. Speaking on Instagram from the medical facility less than four weeks ago, George stated: “I am in the building where I had all my heart surgeries. I can’t say it is good to be back because it is not.”
He explained at the time: “I just had a scan done on my chest because I’ve had a bit of an issue with one of my lungs. It should be fine. It is just a precaution.” The singer did not provide further details about the scan results or the nature of the lung issue.
George’s ongoing health struggles began with an emergency heart operation in 2024 when he had a pacemaker fitted. The device regulates heart rhythm for patients with cardiac conditions, and Tuesday’s hospital visit occurred approximately one year after the initial procedure.
In September 2025, George disclosed he was back in hospital enduring a five-hour wait to be seen by medical staff. The pattern of hospitalisations over the past year suggests continuing complications or monitoring requirements following his cardiac surgery.
The former Strictly Come Dancing contestant has not elaborated on whether his latest A&E visit relates to his heart condition, the recent lung concerns, or an entirely separate medical issue. His social media posts indicated the problem arose during nighttime hours, requiring immediate emergency care.
George is currently in a relationship with award-winning EastEnders actress Maisie Smith. The couple’s relationship has continued throughout his various health challenges over the past year.
The Wanted, the boy band George found fame with, suffered the devastating loss of bandmate Tom Parker who died in March 2022 following a brave battle with brain cancer. Parker’s death at age 33 shocked fans and the music industry.
George has not provided an update on his condition since the initial posts from A&E on Tuesday morning. Fans await further information about what prompted the latest hospital dash and whether it signals new complications or routine monitoring following his previous procedures.
The singer’s medical team will likely determine whether Tuesday’s incident requires admission or further investigation, or if he can return home following emergency assessment. His history of cardiac issues and recent lung scans suggest doctors will exercise caution in evaluating his latest symptoms.
