Myles Smith cancels show due to 'major family health issue'
Myles Smith took to his Instagram Stories to tell fans he wouldn’t be able to perform as scheduled in Vancouver, Canada, on August 4.
Myles Smith has sparked concern after cancelling a show due to a “major family health issue at home”.
The British singer took to his Instagram Stories to tell fans he wouldn’t be able to perform as scheduled in Vancouver, Canada, on August 4.
He wrote: “To everyone who was planning on coming to the Vancouver show. You may have received a notification that the show has been cancelled. I wanted to explain why, because I never want to leave you in the dark.
“There has been a major family health issue at home, and important appointments are taking place on that date. I simply can’t not be there. Family has to come first, and this wasn’t a decision I made lightly.”
He added: “The fact that you continue to show up for me means more than I can put into words, and I never want to take that for granted or lose the trust we’ve built together.
“Thank you for your understanding, your patience, and for always supporting me. It truly means the world.”
Myles then returned to his social media pages to share “one more thought”, as he insisted he wouldn’t have cancelled the show unless he “absolutely had to”.
He wrote: “I’ve already seen some of the frustration and disappointment, and I completely understand it. If you’d booked time off, travelled, or spent money to be there, I’d feel exactly the same.
“I’m not asking for anybody to feel sorry for me! I just wanted to give you as much information as I could, because I believe that’s what you deserve.
“Whilst trying to maintain the privacy of the circumstances back home.”
Myles concluded: “I’m truly sorry and I’ll be back as soon as it’s feasibly possible. Thank you for continuing to support me. It means more than you’ll ever know.”
The announcement and show cancellation comes after Myles told fans he was struggling with things going on in his personal life.
He wrote: “There’s a lot going on in my personal life right now. I’ll probably talk about it when the time feels right, but for now I’m just trying to take things one day at a time.
“Before I left, the people closest to me told me something I won’t forget: don’t rob yourself of the dream you’ve worked so hard for just because life is heavy back home.”
