In the clip, Liam said, “This really is the last news I want to be telling you but basically I've been a little bit unwell recently.”

In the caption, the crooner wrote, “It's with a heavy heart I have to tell you that we have no other choice but to postpone my upcoming tour of South America.

Liam mentioned that he was “beyond excited to perform for his fans and he made an apology to “all of those who had bought tickets”.
The singer penned, “We're working to re-schedule the tour as soon as we possibly can, but for now we will be refunding the tickets – so please look out for updates from your point of purchase.”
In the end, he added, “Thanks as always for the love and support, and look forward to seeing you soon.”
