Is Lewis Capaldi a vegan? What does Lewis Capaldi eat?

The famous Scottish singer is a vegetarian.

He commented about his vegetarianism in  May 2019, admitting that going vegan was “too hard”. He said: “I like animals. I enjoyed how they tasted for a very long time. But, but now, I’ve decided just to not eat them.”

However, in April 2020, Lewis blamed his veggie diet for weight gain, telling the Daily Star: “I lost two stone at the end of 2018, and I thought, ‘Now I’m slimmed down a bit I’ll be a vegetarian, I’ll keep the weight off and I’ll be doing good for the environment’.

“But, oh my God, I got so fat and put all that weight back on as I was substituting meat and veg for the vegetarian option which was pizza and chips.”

He then added that he has been using his time in lockdown to go “running every morning” and added: “It’s gonna be a good year; going to try to lose some weight. I’ll probably want to release the first single to my second album by the end of 2020.”
