According to the release, after TLC's performance in Toledo, Ohio, last week, the group was anticipating their next stop at the New York State Fair in Syracuse. However, the release stated shortly after arriving in Syracuse, Watkins began experiencing health symptoms such as severe nausea and intense abdominal cramps. 

"She was immediately seen by a doctor and subsequently taken to the hospital for fourth evaluation," the release stated.

Watkins was diagnosed with a severe abdominal blockage, according to the release.

"Tionne deeply regrets having to cancel these shows and extends her sincere apologies to all her fans and the event promoters," the release added. "The decision to cancel was made under the advisement of her physician, who required her to stay in the hospital overnight to undergo a CT scan to assess the severity of her condition."

TLC said it will reschedule the canceled shows and appreciates the understanding and support.
