BUSTED’S James Bourne has revealed he’s still ‘not out of the woods’ in a rare health update amid a mystery illness.
The star was forced to withdraw from the McFly Vs Busted tour in September last year due to his health.
In April, he revealed he was having surgery to “extend his life” in a worrying health update, and now he’s issued another one.
In a new post on X, James wrote: “As I’m taking a break from the gram, I’ll be posting an update soon about what’s going on with my health in my Spotify bio.
“It’s a long story. Still not out of the woods yet. Thanks for your support and patience.”
The update comes a month after James, 42, gave his only interview to The Sun to talk about a new project he was determined to finish despite his on-going health battle.
On July 1 he released new album Murder At The Gates, which he created for a brand new musical with legendary American playwright Steven Sater.
He said: “I didn’t want my health to stop me from promoting this project because I’ve put 13 years of my life into it.
“There was a fear of not finishing it. But I knew I had to finish it and give this to the people.
“There’s like a few people that have been waiting for it. There are hardcore fans who show to up for everything – and I have been speaking about this for a long time.
“It feels so good to now have this as a finished product. And it’s the first album I’ve ever produced. So I’m proud of it.”
Busted – which also includes Matt Willis and Charlie Simpson – first rose to fame in 2000 thanks to hits including What I Go To School For and Year 3000.
