The Wanted star Max George shares big career news as he continues to recover from multiple heart surgeries


The Wanted singer, 36, had a pacemaker fitted after being admitted to the hospital in December, shortly after experiencing issues with his heart.

Despite his recent health woes, Max is getting ready to return to work as The Wanted 2.0, which is made up of himself and his bandmate Siva Kaneswaran, have released new show dates as they prepare to hit the road again. Though the procedure was a success, Max's health woes continued as medics soon discovered he had developed enlarged lymph nodes on his lungs that required treatment. Heart inflammation is uncommon in pro athletes who've had a mild COVID-19 infection and most don't need to be sidelined, according to a 2021 study conducted by major professional sports leagues.
