The 54-year-old singer was due to embark on her This Is Me... Live tour in July, but the Daily Mail has revealed the concerts are no longer going ahead.

The A-lister then followed up the news with an exclusive message to fans on her OntheJLo website, where she said she feels “completely heartsick”.
“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down,” the Hustlers star began.
“Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.
“I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time.”
A source told the British news outlet it was a “difficult decision” for Lopez but she felt it was time for a break despite the tour reportedly selling a satisfactory number of tickets.

It comes after speculation ticket sales had not been going well when the tour was promoted as a support act for her recent album. However, upon news it was a greatest hits tour, tickets reportedly began selling in larger quantities.
The cancellation of the tour comes days after sources close to Lopez and Affleck, 51, revealed the current status of their relationship after intense speculation the pair are headed for divorce.

“They’re still living separately,” the source said. “She’s back in LA for tour rehearsals. She seems okay. She’s very focused on work.”
Meanwhile, friends and family of Lopez and Affleck are reportedly torn over whether the infamous “Bennifer” will make it through their alleged rough patch.
