The Wanted's Nathan Sykes admits to having a "mental breakdown"

The Wanted star Nathan Sykes says he had a full breakdown when the band were filming a reality show in the States.

The British-Irish group starred in their first ever TV programme The Wanted Life earlier this year, but Sykes' time was soured by a severe vocal injury.

However, he told In:Demand that his problems went beyond his voice, with the singer unable to cope with the rigours of filming. Sykes said:

"Let's put it this way; I locked myself in my room for three days so I wasn't filmed."

When host Alex James joked that it would have been a good way to hide a breakdown, the singer replied:

"Oh no, it was completely a mental breakdown. It was completely a full-blown mental breakdown. I blamed it on the voice though, so it's fine."
