He wrote: "Thank you everyone for all your messages of support, I'm feeling much better now and on the mend - and also a huge thank you to all the hospital staff for doing a superb job."

Sir Mick was forced to postpone tour dates in the US and Canada, announcing he was "devastated" to let down fans.

A statement from the group on March 30 said: "Mick has been advised by doctors that he cannot go on tour at this time, as he needs medical treatment."

The singer is now recovering from his heart surgery.
