"I started this tour excited to finally get back to playing live after a long break due to the pandemic, but the reality is I was not at all ready for how difficult touring would be after this time away," the statement reads.
Shawn further explains that he has to cancel the tour dates in North America, the UK and Europe to take some time off for his health.
"I know you all have been waiting so long to see these shows, and it breaks my heart to tell you this but I promise I will be back as soon as I've taken the right time to heal."
Fans have been quick to comment, showing the singer love all over social media.
sometimes we are not always ready and we always need time to ourselves so I hope you can heal yourself and I'll always be here for you you're one of the most important people in my life and I love you very much, I'm sorry for all this
