Celine Dion forced to cancel UK shows after being diagnosed with incurable disease

Celine Dion said she has been diagnosed with a rare neurological condition - stiff person syndrome after having muscle spasms.

The Canadian singer, 54, told her Instagram followers on Thursday that she has cancelled and rescheduled dates for her European tour which was due to start in February.

She said the spasms affect "her daily life" and create issues for her mobility and vocal cords. Her Courage World Tour shows at The O2 in London, AO Arena Manchester, Utilita Arena Birmingham and OVO Hydro in Scotland have been moved from 2023 to April 2024.
