Phil Collins has been forced to postpone two shows at London's Royal Albert Hall due to injury.
The singer-songwriter, who was due to perform the final two dates of a five-night run at the venue tonight and tomorrow, suffered a fall in his hotel room on Wednesday night and cut his head during the accident.
Collins' management released a statement via the singer's official Facebook page informing fans of the news.
"We, unfortunately, have to announce that Phil Collins’ performance at the Royal Albert Hall in London will be postponed tonight (June 8) and tomorrow (June 9). Phil suffers from ‘drop foot’ as a result of a back operation which makes it difficult to walk. He rose in the middle of the night to go to the toilet and slipped in his hotel room, hitting his head in the fall on a chair. He was taken to hospital where he had stitches for a severe gash on his head close to his eye and is recovering well. He will be kept under observation for 24 hours.
"Phil sends his sincere apologies and thanks to fans. He has had a fantastic week at his first shows in 10 years, cannot thank people enough for their warm reaction and is excited to return.
"These Royal Albert Hall shows will be rearranged for November 26 and 27 this year. All tickets for June 8 will be valid for November 26 and tickets for June 9 will be valid for November 27.
"He will carry on with this tour on Sunday in Cologne and then Paris before returning to London for his headline performance at BST Hyde Park on June 30."

Sun June 25 2017 - DUBLIN Aviva Stadium
Fri June 30 2017 - LONDON Hyde Park
