LeAnn Rimes has announced that she is postponing two upcoming concerts after falling ill, telling fans she needs time to recover before returning to the stage.
In a message shared on Instagram Stories on April 29, the singer revealed that her health forced her to pause her touring schedule.
"Due to severe illness, I am unable to travel & perform this week," she wrote. "I'm sorry to share that the upcoming shows in Spokane and Seattle will be rescheduled."
According to People, the affected shows were originally set for April 30 in Spokane, Washington, and May 1 in Seattle. Both concerts are part of her ongoing "30 Years of Blue Tour," which began on April 19 and celebrates three decades since her breakout success.
Rimes, 43, reassured fans that the delay is only temporary and that new dates have already been set. Spokane is now scheduled for May 31, while Seattle will take place on June 2. She added that all previously purchased tickets will still be valid, and refunds will be available for those unable to attend.
"I am truly heartbroken to have to reschedule and I am so very grateful for your kindness and continued support as I recover," she wrote. "I look forward to being back on stage and seeing you very soon. Love, LeAnn."
