Zayn Malik is making some changes to his upcoming tour.
On Friday (May 1), the "Pillowtalk" singer, 33, shared a message to fans on his Instagram Stories explaining that he was reducing the number of shows for his KONNAKOL Tour planned for later this year in support of his new album of the same name. This includes canceling all of the U.S. dates scheduled for the tour, per Variety. As of Friday, he is still set to perform in the shows scheduled for the U.K., Mexico and South America. The move comes after he was hospitalized last month for unspecified reasons.
"Thank you so much for all the support and love you've shown me on the album release and more importantly your love, prayers, and well wishes for my health," he said. "I've felt it, and it's meant the world. I've been at home recovering and I'm doing well and will be better and stronger than before."
He continued, "I've had to take another look at my schedule for the months ahead and have to reduce the number of shows on the KONNAKOL Tour. I want to make sure I still get out and see as many of you as I possibly can. I'm really looking forward to playing these shows for you, and I hope to see the rest of you around the world very soon. Big Love, Z."
In April, the One Direction alum was forced to cancel several planned appearances amid ongoing "health issues" after sharing a photo of himself in a hospital bed "unexpectedly recovering" from a mystery illness.
"Heartbroken that I can't see you all this week," he said, "I wouldn't be in the place I am today without you guys and am so thankful for your understanding."
