Sir Elton John recently turned to social media and announced his scary fall as well as his plans to postpone his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour dates to 2023.

The singer announced the news on Instagram via a statement that read, “It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I am forced to reschedule the 2021 dates of my Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour in Europe and the UK to 2023.”

“At the end of my summer break, I fell awkwardly on a hard surface and have been in considerable pain and discomfort in my hip ever since. Despite intensive physio and specialist treatment, the pain has continued to get worse and is leading to increasing difficulties moving.”

“I have been advised to have an operation as soon as possible to get me back to full fitness and make sure there are no long-term complications.”

“I will be undertaking a program of intensive physiotherapy that will ensure a full recovery and a return to full mobility without pain.”
