Fans of Sam Smith have rushed to their defence after trolls cruelly compared their quarantine meltdown to elderly war veteran Captain Tom Moore who has raised millions of pounds for the NHS. Last month, the Stay With Me singer opened up about their struggles being in lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic with a photo of them bowing their head in despair at their home in London. ‘Stages of a quarantine meltdown,’ they captioned the image.
This week, Captain Tom, aged 99, has become a national treasure and hero after successfully completing 100 laps around his garden to raise money for the NHS fighting on the coronavirus frontlines.
