Eddy Mitchell, who was set to make his return to the stage next summer, has regrettably been compelled to withdraw.

A rather challenging choice to consider. Eddy Mitchell has been compelled to cancel his summer tour following his doctor’s advice. It is with considerable disappointment that I must convey the news of this cancellation. “I had been eagerly anticipating our gathering this summer, yet I must prioritise my health,” the 82-year-old singer conveyed in a statement issued on Wednesday, March 25, as reported by TF1 Info.

“I wish to extend my heartfelt apologies to my audience and assure you that I shall do everything within my power to return to the stage at the earliest opportunity,” he further remarked.

He had developed pneumonia the previous year.

There are discussions regarding “health issues necessitating treatment and an extended period of rest for several months.”

“Following discussions with his medical team, it became evident that he would be unable to undertake the tour under optimal circumstances, both for his well-being and the standard of his performances,” she stated.

During an appearance on TF1 last year, Eddy Mitchell candidly shared that he was gradually recuperating from pneumonia. I ceased smoking a month ago. “We shall see,” he confided.
