LeAnn Rimes Forced To Postpone Concerts

LeAnn Rimes was scheduled to perform in the Pacific Northwest this week, but a bout with some “severe illness” has forced her to cancel those shows.

In an Instagram Story, Rimes announced, “Due to severe illness, I am unable to travel & perform this week I’m sorry to share that the upcoming shows in Spokane and Seattle will be rescheduled.”

She revealed the rescheduled dates would be on May 31 in Spokane (Originally April 30), Washington, and June 2 in Seattle (Originally May 1).

The singer assured fans that ticket goers can use the same tickets for the rescheduled date, but if they couldn’t attend, they could get refunds from their point of purchase.

“I am truly heartbroken to have to reschedule and I am so very grateful for your kindness, and continued support as I recover. I look forward to being back on stage and see you veru soon.”

The shows are part of the singer’s 30 Years of Blue Tour, which just kicked off on April 17th.

The Postponement Comes After Celebrating A “Bittersweet” Anniversary With Her Husband, Eddie Cibrian

Almost one week ago, LeAnn and her husband, actor Eddie Cibrian celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary. While they were able to celebrate on a beachy vacation together, Rimes revealed that the trip was filled with “tears and worry” due to “some very tense, heart wrenching things happening at home with family.”

“We got to step away for 3 days amidst work and some very tense, heart wrenching things happening at home with family,” LeAnn wrote on social media. “It’s been a different anniversary, one filled with tears and worry, but in between, there were moments of laughter and deep gratitude for this love of ours.”

She continued speaking highly of her husband, saying, “Day by day, we walk hand in hand through the rollercoaster of life, and god, i’m so grateful that it’s with each other,” she continued. “We’ve been through so much in our 15 years as husband and wife. We know how to ride the waves, hold each other in times of need, mend what needs mending. i’m so proud of what we have created together.”

We wish LeAnn a speedy recovery, and hope to see her back on stage soon!
