Zayn Malik has postponed the US leg of his upcoming tour after the “heartbreaking loss” of his former One Direction bandmate Liam Payne.
Payne died, aged 31, after falling from the third floor of hotel balcony in Argentina on Wednesday.
Malik was about to start the US leg of his tour next week – starting with a show in San Francisco on Wednesday.
However, the singer told fans he was going to have to postpone the shows – saying: “Given the heartbreaking loss experienced this week, I’ve made the decision to postpone the US leg of the Stairway to the Sky Tour.
“The dates are being rescheduled for January and I’ll post them as soon as it’s all set in the next few days. Your tickets will remain valid for the new dates. Love you all and thank you for your understanding.”
