Heart just announced they will be postponing their Royal Flush Tour "due to medical reasons" as Ann Willson revealed she was diagnosed with cancer.

The band made the announcement via social media, encouraging fans to "hold on to their tickets" as they plan to reschedule the postponed shows.

Wilson herself took to Instagram, as well, updating fans on her health and revealing her cancer diagnosis.

On July 2, the legendary rocker shared:

“Dear friends, I recently 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 preventative chemotherapy & I've decided to do it.”

She continued that doctors instructed her to “take the rest of the year away from the stage in order to fully recover."

Wilson then expressed her hopes to be performing again next year.

“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.”

The singer finished her post:

“This is merely a pause. I’ve much more to sing."
“Love, Ann Wilson."
"Respectfully, this is the last public statement I’d like to make on the matter.”

Fans offered their support in the comments.

Many said they were sad to miss the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee's performance, but Wilson should put her health and well-being first.

In late May, Wilson announced the cancellation of Heart performances in Europe stating she would be “undergo[ing] a time-sensitive but routine medical procedure."

She added in the caption:

"I’m okay! Please don’t worry."
"I do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. It’s certainly an inconvenience for me."
"Love & respect always, Ann"

We're sending our love.

After President Donald Trump claimed that his new White House ballroom is "very popular" with the American public, CNN shared a hilariously shady poll that gets to the truth of the matter.

Last year, Trump ordered the demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a 90,000 square-foot ballroom that will dwarf the size of the White House itself, sparking alarm from historical preservationists and the public alike.

It's well-known across the internet that it takes forever for men to use the restroom. For dads especially, in the time it takes them to poop, when they return to the house, their kids will have aged seven years, and their baby will have learned to walk.

These are jokes, of course, but it's an internet consensus that men spend a really long time on the porcelain throne.

In early 2024, 49-year-old Antonia Eastwood married Ashley Monk after about five months of dating. During the ceremony, Antonia tripped while walking down the aisle.

Antonia and Ashley were both suspicious that she did not trip accidentally and that Ashley's sister, Gemma, actually tripped her. Gemma and Antonia were not close, and the couple also believed that Gemma might be jealous that they were marrying after five months, though she'd been with her childhood sweetheart for 20 years without tying the knot.
