LeAnn Rimes has some more unfortunate news to share with her fans.
After cancelling two shows earlier in the week due to what she described as a “severe illness,” the country star shared a disappointing update regarding upcoming shows and her health.
“After a diagnosis of covid leading to severe laryngitis, I’m so sorry to have to reschedule next week’s shows,” Rimes, 43, began a lengthy text post on her Instagram Story, Friday, May 1. “A visit to my doctor for a scope of my vocal cords has confirmed the news and I wanted to tell you as soon as I could.”
She continued, noting how disappointed it made her to have to let her fans down. “It breaks my heart, having to reschedule these shows,” the songstress wrote. “This is sadly out of my hands until I get this under control.”
