Irish pop phenomenon CMAT has delivered heartbreaking news to her devoted British fanbase, announcing the immediate postponement of her entire UK tour due to a serious health emergency.
The rising star, whose real name is Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson, revealed she's battling a painful infection that has left her unable to perform. The announcement has sent shockwaves through her growing fan community, with many having eagerly anticipated her live shows for months.
Health Takes Priority Over Performances
In an emotional statement shared across her social media platforms, the Dublin-born artist expressed her profound disappointment at having to delay the highly anticipated tour. "I am completely and utterly devastated to have to do this," CMAT confessed, her words echoing the disappointment felt by ticket holders across the country.
The singer emphasised that medical professionals have strongly advised against performing while she recovers from the infection. "My body is literally refusing to let me do my job," she explained, highlighting the physical toll the condition has taken.
Fan Support Floods Social Media
Despite their disappointment, CMAT's loyal supporters have overwhelmingly responded with messages of support and understanding. Social media platforms have been flooded with well-wishes, with fans urging the singer to prioritise her health above all else.
"Your health comes first - we'll be here when you're better!" wrote one fan, while another added: "Take all the time you need to recover properly. We love you!"
What Happens Next for Ticket Holders?
Current tickets will remain valid for the rescheduled dates, which are expected to be announced once CMAT has fully recovered. Fans unable to attend the new dates will be eligible for refunds through their original point of purchase.
The postponed tour was set to include performances in major cities including London, Manchester, Glasgow, and Birmingham, showcasing material from her critically acclaimed album.
CMAT concluded her statement with a promise to return stronger: "I'm so sorry to everyone who was excited to come to the shows. I'm going to use this time to get better and come back even more powerful."
