Jessie J has been forced to cancel her upcoming tour after a devastating update on her journey with breast cancer.
The singer announced that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer on June 4, with fans all around the world left devastated by the revelation.
Her shock diagnosis came as a result of the star being ‘in and out of tests’ for some time.
Jessie, who became a mom in 2023, previously explained on Instagram that she is hopeful about her diagnosis, given that it was found ‘early.’
At the time, she said: “Cancer sucks in any form, but I’m holding on to the word ‘early.’”
The star said she wanted to be open about her diagnosis in order to process it and to help others.
But in a devastating turn, the popstar has been forced to cancel her upcoming tour dates.
The singer was due to tour the U.K. and Europe in October, before gigs in the U.S. in November.
But addressing her loyal fans on Instagram, she revealed that another surgery means the concerts cannot go ahead as planned.
Jessie said: “I need to be healed, and I know this is the right decision to make.
“So I’m postponing the tour till next year.”
The star asked fans to ‘bear with’ her regarding the U.S. tour, adding that it’s ‘something that I want to do, but when the time is right.’
The pop sensation added: “You guys know how much I want to do all of it, but I just can’t.
“And I have to be realistic.”
Apologising to her supporters, she said: “So that is what it is, and I’m sorry,.
“I feel frustrated and sad, but also it is what it is, and I need to be better.”
The mom-of-one noted that she is required to have a second surgery, but described it as ‘nothing too serious.’
“Unfortunately, it falls right in the middle of a tour that I had booked,” she revealed.
The singer has shared the heartbreaking admission that one of the hardest parts of her journey has been missing moments with her little boy.
“Missing being an active mom/human the most,” she wrote on her Instagram Stories.
“But it’s been nice to slow down and Sky is having a blast with Nanny and Grandad.”
Understanding fans showed support for the star in the comments of her post.
One said: “Your health comes first, we will be there after all this waiting for you with our arms wide open. Sending love.”
Another added: “Appreciate you for keeping it real, look after number one.”
“Get well soon,” a third wrote. “There is only one life so live it and as you said, it is the way it is.”
