Ariana Grande has announced that she may have to cancel shows on her Sweetener world tour over some health issues.

Grande, who is in the middle of the US leg of her tour, took to Instagram to tell fans that after her Charlottesville show, her head was "splitting", but that she was hoping to recover in time for her next concert in Lexington, Kentucky.

She has since made a statement on her Instagram stories, saying that she may be forced to call off future performances on this tour.

"Hi my loves, so I’m still very sick. I’ve been sick since the last London show. I don’t know how it’s possible but my throat and head are still in so much pain," she wrote.

"I sound okay I’m just in a lot of pain and it’s difficult to breathe during the show. I am seeing my doctor and trying my v best to get better for tomorrow’s show.

The last thing I would ever want to do is cancel a show at this point with so few left. I’m truly cherishing every moment of this… I just really don’t know what’s happening with my body right now and need to figure it out.’

Please take this as a gentle heads up… I don’t want anyone to feel blindsided tomorrow if God forbid I can’t make the show happen. I’m on all the meds. Getting IV drips, doing everything I possibly can to pull through.

Mum and friends are taking good care of me. Just a scary feeling. Love you with all my heart and will keep you posted."
