I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be there, even if I have to do things a little differently this time,” she wrote.KATSEYE//InstagramThe global girl group seems to be persevering through the tour since it kicked off its North American leg on October 13. Not only are two members, Manon Bannerman and Sophia Laforteza, absent from performances, but several shows have been canceled or postponed due to illness. The Grammy nominees previously canceled tour stops in Detroit, Minneapolis, and Chicago.“The label has made the decision to postpone our shows in Chicago and Minneapolis as Megan is recovering from a concussion,” the group wrote in its Instagram Story on November 5. “We are incredibly sorry to disappoint our fans. We know how much you’ve been looking forward to these shows, and that many of you have traveled long distances to be there. We don’t take that lightly, and we’re truly sorry for the disappointment.”“We’ll announce the rescheduled dates as soon as possible, so please hold on to your tickets,” they continued. “We can’t wait to see you in both cities again soon. Thank you for your continued love, support and understanding.”Wishing Megan and the girls nothing but the best as she continues her recovery!
