Ariana Grande has been forced to postpone gigs due to illness.

The ‘thank u, next’ singer was supposed to perform at Tampa’s Amelia Arena this week before heading to Orlando’s Amway Center.

However, while taking to her Instagram Story, Ariana revealed the two gigs have had to be cancelled due to illness.

She wrote: “I woke up incredibly sick today, ran to my doctor here and have been told to postpone these shows tonight and tomorrow. I’m so beyond devastated.

“I will make this up to you, I promise. Please forgive me. I love you and I will be back and better than ever as soon as possible. Love you.”

Live Nation Florida confirmed the news with a screenshot of Ariana’s Instagram Story and wrote: “Ariana Grande’s Sweetener World Tour dates tonight in Tampa (Amalie Arena) and tomorrow, May 29 in Orlando (Amway Center) have been postponed due to illness.

“The new show dates will be 11/24 in Tampa & 11/25 in Orlando. Ariana is sorry to disappoint her fans and will look fwd

“to seeing them in November. Tickets for tonight and tomorrow’s shows will be honored for the new dates. Refunds are available at the point of purchase. Miami shows are still happening.”

Let’s hope she makes a full recovery ahead of her performance at Manchester Pride this year!
