Tom Jones ‘forced’ to postpone his tour under ‘medical advice’

Tom Jones has cancelled his tour.

The singer apologised to fans earlier today for having to postpone his 21-date tour. Tom was due to kick off his string of gigs next week, but was advised under doctor's orders to not go ahead with it. The tour will go ahead in 2018. A spokesperson for the entertainer said : "Following medical advice, Sir Tom Jones has announced that he will unfortunately be postponing his US tour, which was due to commence in Bethlehem, PA on Wednesday September 6."

"Dates are being re-scheduled for May and June 2018 and all tickets will remain valid for the new dates, details of which, will follow as soon as possible.

"Tom sends his sincere apologies to his fans and looks forward to seeing them all again in 2018.

"Any customers wishing to get a refund should contact their point of purchase."

It is unknown why Sir Tom is unfit to perform, but we hope that he'll back on track soon.
