Heart’s Ann Wilson has revealed that she recently underwent surgery to remove a cancerous mass and will soon begin preventive chemotherapy. As a result, the band’s remaining North American dates have been postponed.
Wilson said the following:
“Dear friends,
I underwent an operation to remove something that, as it turns out, was cancerous.
The operation was successful & I’m feeling great but my doctors are now advising me to undergo a course of preventive chemotherapy & I’ve decided to do it.
And so my doctors are instructing me to take the rest of the year away from the stage in order to fully recover.
To the ticket buyers, I really do wish we could do these gigs. Please know that I absolutely plan to be back on stage in 2025. My team is getting those details sorted & we’ll let you know the plan as soon as we can.
Thank you all for the support.
This is merely a pause.
I’ve much more to sing.
Love,
Ann Wilson
Respectfully, this is the last public statement l’d like to make on the matter.”
The band added:
“As of today, HEART’s Royal Flush Tour is postponed due to medical reasons.
Fans are encouraged to hold on to their tickets as they will be honored for the rescheduled dates.
More information to be announced in the coming weeks.”
