Bertín Osborne health setbacks and TV schedule change

Entities: Canal Sur · Huelva · El Fandi · Melody · Bertín Osborne

Overview

Spanish singer‑presenter Bertín Osborne was hospitalized with acute pneumonia in late May 2026, a complication of a recent COVID‑19 infection that forced the cancellation of several concerts in Galicia and elsewhere. He re‑appeared at the Beef Awards in late June and performed on 4 July at the Bingo Las Vegas gala in Madrid, marking his first public singing since the dual pneumonias.

On 16 July 2026 his scheduled appearance at the Fiestas de Nuestra Señora del Carmen in Madrid’s Chamberí district was cancelled after doctors warned that persistent shortness of breath, excess phlegm and low oxygen saturation made singing unsafe; his representative confirmed no new date has been set while he focuses on recovery.

By 29 July 2026 his health woes continued to affect his commitments. Andalusian broadcaster Canal Sur announced that “El Show de Bertín” would be aired later than usual to accommodate a live bullfight broadcast from Huelva’s Plaza de la Merced, featuring toreros El Fandi, Manuel Escribano and Alejandro Conquero, with singer Melody as a guest. The schedule adjustment underscores ongoing concerns about Osborne’s ability to fulfill live engagements as he works to regain full respiratory function.
