‘Naturally he is gutted that his and Kate’s trip to Lake Como has been ruined but at least she was there to help him when he fell ill.
‘Doctors have warned him not to expect to be signed off to go home for at least another six days.
‘They want to do every test possible to understand the issue fully but they now suspect that there has been an underlying issue for a while that has been getting worse.’
Representatives for Liam have been contacted by MailOnline for comment.
Last month Liam shared the heartbreaking news he was cancelling his upcoming tour after being ordered to ‘rest and recover’ by doctors.
Liam added a caption on the post reading: ‘It’s with a heavy heart I have to tell you that we have no other choice but to postpone my upcoming tour of South America.
‘Over the past week I’ve been in hospital with a serious kidney infection, it’s something I wouldn’t wish on anyone, and doctors orders are that I now need to rest and recover.
‘I was beyond excited to come play for you guys. To all of you who have bought tickets: I’m so sorry.

In the clip he admitted to having filmed the video numerous times before deleting, before finally deciding this was the right time to share his story with fans.
Saying: ‘So I mean I filmed a bunch for theses over time and deleted them but I don’t know whether this is the right time’,.
‘I know in my last video I mentioned I’d been diagnosed with a couple of conditions and not to go into too much detail but one of them I have is, there’s a lot of manic things in my life which you guys saw,’.
He continued: ‘But the other side of it is and that kind of feels like when when I would lose my sobriety in these moments that were super low and I felt like that today,’.
‘And it’s isolating the two things and seeing them separately and like I know what they are now’.
Before adding: ‘Luckily I have some amazing people around me that kind of look after me but I am sure they can see it in me too that I’m “not really here'”‘
He captioned the slip: ‘I’ve filmed this same video about 20 times at different points this year and got too scared to put it out by talking myself out of it’.
‘I’m coming to see how fortunate I am to be in the position I’m in… and I wanna give any of you struggling the gift I was given by sharing some of the things I learned form specialists whilst I was away’.
‘First thing I did everyday was check in and its important you don’t bottle up how you feel. Feeling is one of the amazing gifts we had and I blocked things up so long it made me sick and lash out… notice it, allow it to happen and let it pass through’.
