Engelbert Humperdinck, the British singer who rose to fame in 1967 with his recording of “Release Me,” is feeling good.

Four weeks after the singer celebrated his 90th birthday on May 2, he made a public appearance on Saturday, May 30, in Los Angeles to meet some of his fans.

Alongside other celebs that included Heather Locklear, Lorenzo Lamas, William Shatner and Priscilla Presley, Humperdinck attended The Hollywood Show at the Los Angeles Marriott Burbank Airport Hotel, where fans could take selfies and ask for autographs.

“The man looks like he hasn’t aged at all,” an eyewitness exclusively tells Closer of Humperdinck. “He was in great shape and was smiling the whole time.”

“He really is a true old-school pro,” the source adds of the “There Goes My Everything” singer. “He loved meeting the fans and was genuinely happy to be at the event.”

Humperdinck, who is still very active across social media, recently posted a video on Instagram telling fans that he is preparing for other upcoming appearances and concerts — and wished some of his family members a happy birthday.

The singer received plenty of kind words and well wishes in the comments section of his post.

“Hello Engelbert you look so great sitting in your garden, thanks for your update news that you always love to share with us all and enjoy your relaxing and lots of love to you too,” one user wrote on his video.

“You make my heart and my head smile,” another fan wrote. “Between your most beautiful singing voice and a man with great integrity along with such a positive attitude. These are the things you want to surround yourself with in life. Thank you for such joy.”

Another said how great Humperdinck looked, writing, “Good morning from England 🇬🇧 looking well. Been a fan for many many years.”

These two haven’t aged! Jun 1, 2026 10:04 AM EDT

Engelburt Humperdinck and Priscilla Presley look like they’re aging in reverse!

Humperdinck, 90, and Presley, 81, both hold solid roles in music history. The legendary crooner rose to stardom with songs like “Release Me” and continues to tour to this day. Priscilla was the wife of Elvis Presley until 1973 and went on to have a successful acting career, with roles in shows like Dallas. Together, the dynamic duo recently reunited for The Hollywood Show, and from their sweet photo together, it’s safe to say they’re aging in reverse.

Reflecting on Losing His Wife and Infidelity

Humperdinck recently opened up about the loss of his wife, Patricia, and how he recalled asking for his wife’s forgiveness after being unfaithful.

“She was my soulmate, an amazing lady who put up with a lot of things I’m not proud of. I always apologized for not being faithful,” Humperdinck told The Times, noting that “the dinner table can feel pretty lonely” without her these days. “She forgave me and we stayed together. It brought us closer in fact. Will I fall in love again? Can’t see it happening.”

Humperdinck added that while Patricia’s death made him “angry,” he “came around in the end. God had his reasons.”

Humperdinck Loves Social Media

In addition to his work on the stage, the beloved singer has a significant following on social media, where he’s an avid user of TikTok and Instagram. Back in June, he opened up there about how much he misses cruising the open road on his Harley.

“My Harley was on my mind. It’s been too long since I was out on the open road I need to get a gadget to strap my phone to my chest so you can come along with me. I used to love riding with my friends along PCH. Wonderful memories that are so strong that i can appreciate feel the ocean breeze and smell the salty air,” he shared in a stream of consciousness post without much punctuation.

After nearly six decades in showbiz, Engelbert Humperdinck says karaoke has kept his music alive “all these years.” The India-born, U.K.-raised singer, who celebrates his 90th birthday on May 2, recently performed more than 60 concerts worldwide in 2025 after realizing he needed to keep singing following his The Last Waltz farewell tour in 2024, and he continues to tour in 2026.

Speaking to Britain’s PA news agency, he said: “Most of my songs are on karaoke because people love to sing them.” That, he added, is what keeps them sounding “as fresh today as they were when I recorded them. … I’m very big with karaoke.”

Born Arnold George Dorsey, he found fame after adopting the name of German composer Engelbert Humperdinck as his stage name, with the ballad “Release Me” topping the U.K. charts in 1967 and reaching No. 4 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. His follow-up hits “There Goes My Everything” and “The Last Waltz” had critics describing him as a “crooner.” Humperdinck angrily responded, “No crooner has the range I have. I can hit notes a bank could not cash. What I am is a contemporary singer, a stylized performer.”

Fans, particularly in America, where he wowed sold-out audiences at the Riviera Hotel and top Las Vegas venues, agreed.

Humperdinck was heartbroken in 2021 when he lost his wife of 56 years, British actress Patricia Healey, due to complications related to COVID-19. They had four children together.

Now, ahead of his monumental birthday, the four-time Grammy nominee and Golden Globe winner reunited with his long-time friend and collaborator, multi-platinum producer Joel Diamond, to release a new track called “I’ve Got You.” Humperdinck says of the song, “After all these years in music, there’s still nothing quite like the feeling of a new song finding its way into the world.” He recently shared that it will be part of a new upcoming album.

Fans wishing to meet the icon can do so at the upcoming Hollywood Show in Burbank, California, on Saturday, May 30.

4X GRAMMY NOMINEE, 64 GOLD ALBUMS, 24 PLATINUM ALBUMS AND 140 MILLION RECORDS SOLD – THE ICONIC SINGER REUNITES WITH MULTI-PLATINUM PRODUCER JOEL DIAMOND

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, April 30, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Turning 90 on May 2, Engelbert Humperdinck – the legendary “King of Romance” – continues to defy time with the release of his new single, “I’ve Got You,” available now everywhere on all platforms via Silver Blue Records, distributed by Sony Orchard. 

Humperdinck, whose career spans more than six decades and includes over 140 million records sold worldwide and 63 Gold and 24 Platinum albums, the four-time Grammy nominee and Golden Globe winner reunites with multi-Platinum producer Joel Diamond on “I’ve Got You.” Fifty years after their first pairing on the worldwide hit “After the Lovin,’” over the course of their enduring partnership, Engelbert and Diamond have collaborated on 109 recordings together. Engelbert, known for his legendary catalog of timeless hits “Release Me,” “The Last Waltz,” “This Moment in Time” and “After the Lovin’,” which has defined generations of romantic music, he has yielded some of the most beloved romantic recordings ever made from his creative alliance with Diamond

Says Humperdinck, "After all these years in music, there’s still nothing quite like the feeling of a new song finding its way into the world. ‘I’ve Got You’ is especially close to my heart. It speaks to love, loyalty, and the quiet strength we find in one another—and I believe that message matters now more than ever. Joel Diamond and I have shared an extraordinary journey in music, and somehow, the magic still feels as fresh as ever."

Adds Diamond, “Turning 90 this May, Engelbert continues to deliver performances that rival his most iconic recordings. ‘I’ve Got You’ brings the same passion, dedication, and unmistakable magic that first captivated audiences worldwide and made ‘After the Lovin’ a timeless classic. More than just a new release, ‘I’ve Got You’ stands as a celebration of longevity, artistry, and a historic creative bond between us that continues to shape the sound of romance in music. When I first produced ‘After the Lovin’, there was nothing on the radio that came even close to sounding like it — and now, history is repeating itself."

“I’ve Got You” was written by the late, legendary producer/songwriter Larry Butler – renowned for producing many of Kenny Rogers’ greatest hits (“Lucille,” “The Gambler,” “She Believes In Me,”) as well as penning the Grammy-winning classic “Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song” for B. J. Thomas. “I’ve Got You” was the final composition Butler completed before his passing, and in a deeply personal moment, Butler once said that “this is the very best song I have ever written.” The magical arrangement and instrumentation was crafted by the highly respected and exceptionally talented Ted Perlman.

In addition to the new single, Humperdinck continues to tour year-round, with upcoming performances scheduled for this June through November - both nationally and internationally - including the U.S., Southeast Asia, Germany, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and more.

Engelbert Humperdinck has performed for the Queen four times, several presidents and many heads of state, and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He has recorded everything from the most romantic ballads to movie theme songs, disco, rock, and even gospel. His unique voice has charmed millions of fans around the globe.

Humperdinck exploded on to the music scene with The Beatles and the Rolling Stones. His first single on the charts was “Release Me,” which went into the “Guinness Book of Records” for achieving 56 consecutive weeks on the charts. It was No. 1 in 11 countries. The following decades have seen Engelbert consistently touring the world to sell-out crowds. Engelbert has also been awarded the Honor of Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) by Her Majesty the Queen’s Birthday Honors List.
