Lewis Capaldi has hilariously reacted to claims he bought his huge £1.6 million mansion near a "dogging spot".
Recent reports revealed people had been boasting about 'enjoying sex' near his new abode close to Glasgow.
The Sun recently suggested his home was close to a handful of locations where couples meet for public sex.
One user bragged about the proximity on a dogging app saying: “We’ve made out near Lew’s place. The missus loved it.”
A local couple also posted online, advertising for people to join them saying: “Eaglesham couple here looking for fun. Plenty of laybys and quiet spots near us. Lewis Capaldi stays here and loads of places near his gaff which is fun.”
The 26-year-old star is currently on tour in North America. It comes as Lewis revealed he was unable to find anyone to renovate his new property, which he purchased during lockdown.
Speaking in an interview on US Radio, he joked: "Let’s put it this way, if this album doesn’t go well I have a real issue on my hands. That house is now a shell. I have ripped it all out and right now it’s squalor.”
The Forget Me singer added: "We keep on finding builders and they keep on being like ‘Nah, not for us’. People are turning me down. I’m offering to pay the money and they’re like ‘No, not for us, that’s not the one’."
Despite liking the home at first, Lewis later came to regret buying it, admitting on Apple Music’s The Zane Lowe Show the house was a “money pit” and the “bane of my existence” as the property needed extensive renovations.
The Someone You Loved singer told podcast host Zane: “And I’m here to tell you, the house is a f***ing s***hole. Yeah, it’s a money pit, and it has been the bane of my existence for the last couple of months. I didn’t look around enough, I didn’t smell it. Yeah, I got very excited.”
