Max George said it was 'so good to be home' as he spent Christmas with his family and girlfriend Maisie Smith following major heart surgery.
The singer, 36, revealed on Saturday he had a pacemaker fitted during a two-and-a-half hour operation to address a 2:1 heart block.
Max initially thought he would have to stay in hospital over the festive period, but in a video shared late on Christmas Eve, he revealed to his fans on social media that he was back home and waiting for his girlfriend to join him.
In a video posted to his Instagram Story, he said: “Merry Christmas everyone. I just wanted to say that I am back home waiting for my beautiful girlfriend to arrive at some point.
