Zayn Malik has left his fans heartbroken with an emotional announcement, just days after reuniting with former One Direction bandmate Louis Tomlinson.
The 32-year-old singer, who recently made headlines for reconnecting with Louis at the Stairway to the Sky tour stop in Los Angeles, shocked his followers by postponing his scheduled LA concert on Friday, January 31.
Taking to Instagram Stories, the Dusk Till Dawn hitmaker shared a heartfelt message explaining his decision. “LA, I’m beyond sorry I have to do this, but my voice is really struggling,” Zayn revealed. “I’ve done everything possible yesterday and today to recover it, but unfortunately, it isn’t back yet.”
Despite his efforts, the beloved singer admitted that he was unable to regain his voice in time for the performance. However, he remained optimistic, stating, “I’m hopeful with all the remedies.”
Zayn reassured his fans that he would return to the stage soon, expressing deep regret over the postponement. “I’ll be back on stage tomorrow,” he promised, adding that he had exhausted every possible option before making the tough decision.
“My deepest apologies, I’m only human,” he wrote before signing off with three red heart emojis, showing his appreciation for his fans’ understanding and support.
The announcement sparked a wave of concern among fans, with many flooding social media with well wishes. “Get well soon,” one fan wrote with a heart emoji, echoing the sentiments of many others who expressed both disappointment and worry for the Pillowtalk singer’s health.
Notably, Zayn’s upsetting news came shortly after his heartwarming reunion with Louis Tomlinson at his sold-out concert at the Shrine Exposition Hall on Wednesday, January 29. The two former bandmates shared a touching moment onstage, marking a significant step forward in their relationship.
This reunion came three months after they attended the funeral of their late bandmate Liam Payne, who tragically passed away on October 16 at the age of 31. Their latest interaction suggests that Zayn and Louis have moved past their long-standing rift, which began when Zayn departed from One Direction in 2015.
As fans eagerly await Zayn’s recovery and return to the stage, they continue to show unwavering support for the singer during this difficult time.
