Bonnie Tyler Still Unwell, Summer Tour Cancelled Amid Long Recovery

Bonnie Tyler is no longer in a coma, but her summer tour has been canceled as she continues what's expected to be a lengthy recovery from emergency intestinal surgery.

In a statement shared Monday, June 15, Tyler's family said she was still in the intensive care unit of a hospital in Portugal and 'remains very unwell.' While Tyler's condition 'is improving,' the family continued, 'it is a slow process. Her doctors remain confident that she will make a good recovery but it is going to take time.'

To that end, Tyler's family announced that all of her shows through August had been either canceled or postponed until next year 'where possible.' But the family did say they were 'hopeful' that the vocalist would be able to return to the stage this fall.

'We apologise to all of Bonnie's fans and to our promoter partners for the disappointment that this will cause but trust that you will understand and bear with us in these difficult circumstances. We hope to see you next year instead,' the statement read.

Tyler, who's best known for her hit 'Total Eclipse of the Heart,' was set to launch a European tour in late May to commemorate the 50th anniversary of her recording career. (Her debut single, 'My! My! Honeycomb' was released in 1976.) If Tyler continues to recover as hoped for, she could return to the stage Oct. 23 in Bucharest, Romania.
