Liam Payne postpones gigs after hospital admission with 'serious kidney infection'
Former One Direction star Liam Payne has had to postpone his upcoming tour of South America after being in hospital with a “serious kidney infection”, he said.
The 29-year-old from Wolverhampton wrote in an Instagram post, alongside a video: “It’s with a heavy heart I have to tell you that we have no other choice but to postpone my upcoming tour of South America.”
The former pupil of St Peter’s Collegiate School added: “Over the past week I’ve been in hospital with a serious kidney infection, it’s something I wouldn’t wish on anyone, and doctors’ orders are that I now need to rest and recover.
“I was beyond excited to come play for you guys.
“To all of you who have bought tickets: I’m so sorry. We’re working to re-schedule the tour as soon as we possibly can, but for now we will be refunding the tickets - so please look out for updates from your point of purchase.
“Thanks as always for the love and support, and look forward to seeing you soon.”
