Williams expressed in a social media statement. ‘Following a week of rest and a rigorous medical regimen after my lung infection led to the rescheduling of four shows. I had hoped for recovery to conclude the tour on a high note.

However, after enduring the challenges of the recent performances and consulting my doctor.

She conveyed sincere apologies to those who patiently navigated through the rescheduling and potential changes in travel plans. Stating, “We deeply regret any inconvenience this may have caused.
