Former One Direction star Zayn Malik has cancelled his concert in Dublin which he was due to play later this month.
The singer was scheduled to perform at the 3Arena on 14 May as part of his Konnakol Tour but in an update on Friday he announced that he will be reducing the number of shows, weeks after posting on social media from a hospital bed.
The singer, 33, shared a post to his Instagram story in which he thanked fans for their "love, prayers, and well wishes for my health".
In the post, he wrote: "Thank you so much for all the support and love you've shown me on the album release and more importantly your love, prayers, and well wishes for my health.
"I’ve felt it, and it’s meant the world.
"I’ve been at home recovering and I’m doing well and will be better and stronger than before.
"I’ve had to take another look at my schedule for the months ahead and have to reduce the number of shows on the KONNAKOL Tour."
Malik said he wants to make sure he can still "get out and see as many of you as I possibly can", adding that he is "really looking forward to playing these shows for you".
The former One Direction star has updated his tour schedule on his website, and will perform in London and Manchester next month, with further gigs lined up in Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Peru later this year.
Following the schedule shake-up, Malik has also cancelled his US tour dates, as well as a show in Birmingham.
On his website, it states that refunds will be issued automatically.
The update comes weeks after he shared a picture of himself from hospital and thanked the "incredible" staff who had looked after him, including doctors, nurses and cardiologists.
Malik, who quit One Direction in 2015, did not disclose what was wrong with him in the post – but the photo shared in April showed him lying in a bed hooked up to various machines and monitors.
