Zayn Malik’s worried fans have sent the star well-wishes after he announced he had to postpone the first two of his Stairway To The Sky tour shows last-minute.

The singer, 31, took to his Instagram on Thursday to reveal that his gigs set to take place next week in Edinburgh, had been rescheduled due to ‘unforeseen circumstances’.

The Edinburgh dates would’ve therefore have been the first shows of the tour, but now they’ve been moved to December the tour will officially begin in Leeds on November 23.

Sharing a poster of the new dates through his tour management’s socials, an accompanying statement read.

‘Due to unforeseen circumstances Zayn Stairway To The Sky Edinburgh show original scheduled for November 20 has been rescheduled for December 8.

‘A further date on November 21 at the same O2 Academy Edinburgh venue has been moved to December 9. All tickets for the original show dates will be honoured on the rescheduled dates.’

Despite fans being disappointed over the news, many took to social media to voice their concerns for Zayn’s well-being and send him supportive messages telling him to ‘prioritize his mental health’, assuming the delay was related to him still grieving the loss of Liam.

They wrote: ‘We love you @zaynmalik Take all the time you need, we’ll be here supporting you regardless’.

‘@zaynmalik I’m so proud of u for deciding to prioritize your mental health. Pls, don’t worry about us. We’ll wait as long as u need.

Take as much time as u want.

We know how you’re feeling, you’re not alone. We grieve to together. We love you Zayn.’
