Katharine McPhee will not be making an appearance during her husband David Foster’s final two tour dates in Asia due to a “horrible tragedy” in their family.
The former American Idol contestant made the announcement via Instagram on Friday.
“It is with a heavy heart that I announce that I have to miss our final two shows of our Asia run,” she addressed her fans in Jakarta. “David and I have had a horrible tragedy in our family and at least one of us needs to get back home to our family.”
“Please know how sorry I am and how much I wish to return one day and perform for you all.”
She did not provide any additional information about the situation.
The couple, who first met in 2006 and then sparked dating rumors in 2017, have been touring Asia together on his Hitman tour. His tour, which was scheduled to wrap up August 12 before a three-month break, also featured appearances by Michael Bolton, Loren Allred, and Peabo Bryson.
Fans and the couple’s famous friends have flooded McPhee’s Instagram post with prayers and well wishes.
“So sorry to hear! Take care if your family first❤️,” one person wrote.
Amanda Kloots wrote, “Sending you loads of love. I’m thinking of you guys.”
Even Foster’s ex-wife, Linda Thompson, wished the couple well. “Sending you and David love, & hoping that everything is OK🙏🏻💜”
