DETROIT, Jan. 28 (UPI) -- Morrissey's publicist says the British singer was released from the Detroit-area hospital where he was treated for a bleeding ulcer during the weekend.

Morrissey was admitted to Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak Friday. His illness forced him to reschedule several shows.

"Morrissey is expected to make a full recovery and thanks everyone concerned for their support during this time," the recording artist's representative, Lauren Papapietro, told The Detroit News Monday. "Morrissey apologizes greatly for any and all inconvenience and looks forward to continuing his U.S. tour."

Morrissey is scheduled to perform in Las Vegas Feb. 9.
