But the tour has come to a temporary stop after Gambino shared an announcement online about his "physical health." The singer took to Twitter/X and wrote; "Hey everyone. unfortunately i have to postpone the rest of the north american tour to focus on my physical health for a few weeks."

Despite the disappointing news, fans will be able to see the two artists perform in the near future. "Hold onto your tickets. ALL tickets will be honored for the upcoming dates in north america when they are rescheduled," he added, assuring that he will be taking the stage when he feels better.

"Thanks for the privacy. thanks for the support. thanks for the love," he wrote. His statement comes after he postponed his show on September 8 at the Toyota Center in Houston "due to illness." 

Willow has yet to share her thoughts on the news, but she is expected to return to the tour when new dates are scheduled.
