Lola Young has returned to social media after a three-month hiatus.
It’s been months now since fans have heard from the Messy singer… If you don’t recall, she took a shocking fall onstage at the All Things Go Music Festival in New York City in September. Shortly after, she assured fans she was “okay,” but canceled her next performance in Washington, D.C. It was after that when she announced she’d be stepping away from the spotlight indefinitely:
“I’m going away for a while. It pains me to say I have to cancel everything for the foreseeable future. Thank you for all the love and support. I’m so sorry to let anyone down who has bought a ticket to see me, it hurts me more than you know. Obviously you will be entitled to a full refund. I really hope you’ll give me a second chance once I’ve had some time to work on myself and come back stronger.”
And now after three months away, she’s making her return.

On Saturday, the 24-year-old took to Instagram to share a message with fans. Against a white background, she wrote in black font:
“Hey, I just wanted to express gratitude to everyone who has given me time and space to gather myself and get my head in a better place. I’ve felt so much love and support from you all, and it has helped more than you will ever know.”
Awww. She continued:
“I am hoping to gradually get back to performing and continuing pursuing my dreams. Happy holidays to you all and I can’t wait to see you in 2026.”
Fantastic news! The Conceited singer left off:
“Life is a journey, nothing is perfect but today I am doing well. All my love always, Lola x”
