Bonnie Tyler is out of a coma but remains “very unwell” in intensive care.
The Welsh singer was rushed to hospital in Faro, Portugal, in May after emergency intestinal surgery and placed in an induced coma to aid her recovery.
“Bonnie’s family and team would like to update everyone on how she is progressing with her recovery,” a statement released by her management and posted on the star’s website began.
“Bonnie is no longer in a coma but remains very unwell and in intensive care in hospital in Portugal. Although her condition is improving it is a slow process. Her doctors remain confident that she will make a good recovery, but it is going to take time.”
Tyler’s summer concerts until the end of August have been cancelled, while there’s a chance that some scheduled autumn dates may yet go ahead.
The statement thanked fans for their “huge outpouring of love and support” from around the world, adding the Grammy nominee was aware of it and grateful for the good wishes.
The statement also apologised for the disruption to her summer tour dates.
“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 Total Eclipse of the Heart singer’s team has asked for privacy and noted that further updates would follow when there were significant developments.
