The 'Troublemaker' singer has been rather quiet in recent months, with reports suggesting he's been taking time off to work on his brand new album.
Olly last posted on his Instagram page back June, where he updated fans after undergoing surgery following a 'serious knee surgery'.
Posting a photo of himself in a hospital bed, Olly wrote, 'Hey guys!! Quick update from me! I’m putting on a brave face for the gram 🥺😩 but this week I’ve been recovering from serious knee surgery, something I’ve needed for sometime. I’m not quite sure how I’m going to cope sitting still like this for the next few months 🤯😩 its going to kill me but it’s what’s needed.
'I’m also going to use this time as an opportunity to take myself off social media for a while - focus on my recovery and spend some time on myself, with friends and family. Thanks for a super 2019! With the Voice Win and my Sell Out Arena Tour! Unreal moments! Loved it.. now it’s time for a rest. Enjoy the rest of your year you cheeky lot, don’t miss me too much 🤪 I’ll see you all soon 😘❤'. sic
Since finishing as a runner-up behind Joe McElderry on The X Factor back in 2019, Olly has released a massive 24 singles, spanning over six albums.
Olly's last album, 'You Know I Know', was released in November 2018, featuring massive hit singles 'Moves' and 'Kiss Me'.
