He said, “I started this tour excited to play live after a long break due to the pandemic, but the reality is I was not quite prepared for how difficult the tour would be after this time. "
The 23-year-old singer said that after consulting with her team and working with "an incredible group of healthcare professionals, it's become more and more clear that I need to take the time to ground myself and get stronger." .."
Mendes further noted that he had to "unfortunately cancel" his shows in North America and the UK/Europe, adding, "We hoped that I might be able to take the rest of the dates after some required time, But at this point I have to make my health the first priority."
However, the singer assured his fans that he would make new music and tour the world in the future and expressed his condolences to those who were eagerly waiting for his show.
"That doesn't mean I won't be making new music, and I can't wait to see you on tour in the future. I know you all have been waiting so long to see these shows, and It breaks my heart to tell you this, but I promise I will be back as soon as I find the right time to recover,” he wrote.
