“Unfortunately, the toll the road takes and the pressure hit me and I hit a breaking point,” the singer said.
Shawn Mendes announced on Friday night, 8, that he will be taking a break from his North American tour. According to the singer, he needs to take care of his mental health.
In all, 12 shows already scheduled and with tickets on sale have been postponed indefinitely. On social media the artist stated:
“It breaks my heart to have to say this, but unfortunately I will have to postpone the next three weeks of shows until further notice,” he warned. “I’ve been on tour since I was 15 and to be honest it’s always been hard to be traveling away from friends and family,” she said.
“After a few years without touring, I felt ready to return, but that decision was premature. Unfortunately, the road takes its toll and the pressure hit me and I hit a breaking point,” he said.
“After talking to my team and health professionals, I need to take some time to heal and take care of myself and my mental health first,” he warned. “As soon as there’s more news, I promise you I’ll let you know. I love you guys.”
Initially, the singer is expected to return to the stage on July 31, in a presentation in the city of Toronto, Canada. There is still no information on the new dates of the shows that have been postponed.
