Victoria May Clarke, who married the Pogues frontman in an intimate ceremony in Copenhagen in 2018, shared an update on Twitter and asked fans to pray for him

Another fan tweeted: ‘Sending all love and positive vibes your way. Hope things turn out okay soon. I’ll keep him in my prayers.’

Ms Clarke told the Irish Mirror that Shane is finding it ‘frustrating’ and wants to get out after being admitted last Friday.

She said: ‘I’m definitely hoping he gets out this week.

‘He’s a bit frustrated, I think. He finds it very frustrating… he wants to get out.’

The couple have been together for more than 35 years and tied the knot at Copenhagen City Hall in Denmark back in November 2018.

The intimate ceremony was attended by their close friend Johnny Depp, who sang at the wedding.

The Irish singer-songwriter hasn’t been in the best health since he broke his pelvis in 2015. In 2021 he fell and broke a knee, before tearing ligaments in his left knee, never fully recovering from the injuries.

In April he confirmed that he ‘can’t walk any more’.

He has also been open about his battle with addiction and in 2015 had to get a full set of teeth implants after decades of drink and using drugs destroyed his real ones.

Just last week he seemed in good spirits when he delighted fans by joining TikTok (pictured)

But just last week he seemed in good spirits when he delighted fans by joining TikTok, clocking up an incredible 840,000 views for his first video.

Shane sported a bushy beard and wore a black top which he teamed with a large silver crucifix necklace.
