Zayn cancels U.S. tour dates following hospitalization
by Annie Martin · UPIMay 1 (UPI) -- Zayn is cancelling the U.S. portion of his Konnakol tour.
The former One Direction singer, 33, announced the news Friday in the wake of his hospitalization for an unspecified illness.
In a post on Instagram Stories, Zayn thanked fans for supporting him amid his health issues.
"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. I've felt it, and it's meant the world," the star wrote.
"I've been at home recovering and I'm doing well and will be better and stronger than before. 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," he said.
Zayn released his fifth solo album, Konnakol, on April 17. His accompanying first solo headlining tour now begins May 23 in London, with dates to follow in June and October.
