Liam Payne Puts Tour on Hold While Recovering From Kidney Infection
“This really is the last news I want to be telling you, but I’ve been a little bit unwell recently,” he said in a video message to fans. “I’ve been in the hospital with a bad kidney infection. We started rehearsals and I’ve just been advised that now is really not the right time to be out on the road trying to recover from this. I have the best people around me trying to help me recover as we speak, but we’re going to have to reschedule the tour.”
The postponed trek was to begin on Sept. 1 in South American and end in Mexico City on Sept. 12. In his message, he said he was following his doctor’s orders to “rest and recover.”
A rep for Payne had no comment.
Prior to that, the former One Direction member had been teasing a musical return while sharing updates on his sobriety and what he’s been up to in the time since his debut solo album, LP1, arrived in 2019.
“I’ve been making an album for a change, which is quite fun,” he told iFL TV ahead of a boxing match in London back in May. “It’s been good, I’m excited to bring it out, and I definitely want to tour this time, which is unusual. Because, I wasn’t sure I was going to tour for a long time. I was kind of over it a little bit, but I’m really excited to get back out on the road and go and see all the fans. It’s gonna be fun.”
