British crooner Sam Smith has hinted that he's split from model boyfriend Jonathan Zeizel.
The 22-year-old first denoted the relationship's demise as he prepared to sing break-up song Like I Can.
"This song is very special for me today, as I've actually had to do a very similar thing with someone I've been seeing," he reportedly said.
"So bear with me with this one."
After the show he is reporteded to have said, "Hopefully I will find someone soon and when I do I think it will be a bit more difficult to sing songs because I will want to sing happy songs.
"Right now when I'm on stage I feel like it is good for me, it is like therapy every night."
He later posted an Instagram pic with an exaggerated sad pout and holding a glass of red wine.
"Sometimes you just need to lay in bed with a glass of red wine and a football T-shirt and listen to Joni Mitchell," he said.
"It's been a sad day. Beautiful show, but sad day x."
Smith, who recently enjoyed a romantic Australian getaway with Zeizel, recently went public with the relationship after coming out last year.
