Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby has pneumonia

The Archbishop of Canterbury has pneumonia, Lambeth Palace has said, a day after he pulled out of his Christmas Day sermon.

The Most Rev Justin Welby did not address Canterbury Cathedral after being confined to bed with what was described then as a "severe cold".

Lambeth Palace said the archbishop was now having further bed rest.

His sermon, an annual tradition, was instead released as a statement in which he reflected on lasting peace.
