C├йline Dion announced on Twitter Friday morning that she was cancelling her Courage world tour.
The tour was scheduled to run in European cities including London, Prague and Amsterdam through to 2024.
Dion said in December that she suffers from stiff-person syndrome (SPS).
Symptoms include stiff muscles in the torso, arms and legs.┬а
The medical condition is preventing her from performing, she said in her statement posted to social media.┬а
“I’m working really hard to build back my strength,” she said.
“It’s best that we cancel everything now until I’m really ready to be back on stage again.”
IтАЩm so sorry to disappoint all of you once again… and even though it breaks my heart, itтАЩs best that we cancel everything until IтАЩm really ready to be back on stage… IтАЩm not giving upтАж and I canтАЩt wait to see you again!тАЭ тАУ Celine xxтАж<br>More infoЁЯСЙ<a href=”https://t.co/DHUch7W7OF”>https://t.co/DHUch7W7OF</a> <a href=”https://t.co/bgszxVd1za”>pic.twitter.com/bgszxVd1za</a>
