Jennifer Lopez cancels summer tour to spend time with family as Ben Affleck split rumours swirl
- ‘I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again,’ the singer said in her newsletter sent to fans
- The announcement came amid reports Lopez and Affleck have been living separately in Los Angeles
Jennifer Lopez said on Friday she was cancelling her summer tour to spend more time with her family as rumours circulate over a split with actor-husband Ben Affleck.
The announcement from the singer and her promoter also comes after reports that sales for the mutli-date event were flagging.
In her newsletter “On the JLo” which she sent to fans on Friday she revealed the tour was off.
“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down. Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary,” Lopez wrote.
“I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time …”
The email also included a message from tour promoter Live Nation noting that “Jennifer is taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends.”
The cancellation comes after a number of adjustments and curtailments were made to the tour, including slicing dates off and rebranding it as a greatest hits tour, rather than one focused on her latest album.
