He added, "I am now recuperating at home and surrounded by the tremendous love and support of my family. For the next couple of months, I will be devoting my time and energy to my recovery which means I'll have to take a temporary break from touring. It is always the hardest thing for me to ever disappoint my fans or postpone a show, but I have no doubt I am working hard to accelerate my recovery and get back to performing soon."
"I am beyond grateful for all the love and support you have so generously shown me through the years. Know that I'm keeping your positive messages in my heart, and I'll give you more updates as soon as I can. Much love always, MB"
Bolton, who is "now recuperating at home" with his family, has informed fans that he would be "devoting" the next two months to his "recovery," which means he will "have to take a temporary break from touring."
Bolton had to cancel one of his gigs earlier this month owing to an unexplained ailment.
While it's unclear how long the singer will be away, his tour is set to begin in Florida on February 1.
Bolton had planned to perform around the world throughout the year, with his farewell engagement scheduled for December 22 in Connecticut. (ANI)
