“I started this tour excited to play live again after a long hiatus due to the pandemic, but the reality is that I was not at all prepared for how difficult it would be to tour after all this time,” explained the Canadian singer in a statement released on their social networks.

Mendes explained that after speaking with his team and health professionals, “it became clear that he needed to take some time” to “get settled and come back stronger.”

“We were hoping that he would be able to pick up the rest of the tour after a while, but right now I have to put my health as the number one priority,” he detailed.

However, the musician assured that he will continue to record new music and that he intends to return to concerts in the future.
