Domingo withdraws from Royal Opera House shows

Opera singer Placido Domingo has withdrawn from planned performances at the Royal Opera House (ROH) in London.

The ROH said his withdrawl was "mutually agreed" following an investigation by an American performers' union that found Domingo had behaved in a sexually inappropriate manner towards women working in the industry.

On Tuesday, a separate investigation by Domingo's former employer Los Angeles Opera also found the allegations against him were credible.

An ROH spokesperson said: “We would like to confirm that we have received no claims of misconduct against Maestro Domingo during his time at the Royal Opera House and are sympathetic of his reasons for stepping down."
