She added: “I’m so sorry to everyone who bought tickets. I loved being on tour and seeing all your beautiful faces and I’m sad I won’t be dancing with you tonight. There will definitely be other opportunities in the future.”

In April, Paloma postponed her show in Cardiff for medical reasons and announced that she had to postpone her performance for the second year in a row.

She was “devastated” when she was diagnosed with laryngitis caused by a virus that left her unable to sing.

One day before the scheduled show, the singer canceled her appearance at the Utilita Arena in Cardiff on Instagram – and informed her fans that it would be postponed to a later date.

Paloma also admitted that she was unsure whether her show at the Brighton Centre on Saturday night would go ahead, but vowed to do everything she could to be in top shape for the planned performance.

She wrote: “I am devastated to announce that I have been advised by medical professionals not to perform my show in Cardiff tomorrow and have had to postpone it. I am resting my voice, vaping, gargling and have even had a steroid injection.

“It’s one day at a time at the moment so I’ll let you know about Brighton tomorrow but I don’t want to do anything more than do this show and know that when you come it’s going to be the best show I can do for you. So far this tour has been incredible and I can’t wait to keep going!

“This is the worst thing you have to do. And I can’t apologize enough… strangely enough, the kids are behaving better now that I can’t speak, which confuses me.

“Please hand in your tickets and as soon as my team has a new date, we will let you know. All the best, Paloma x’
