The latest comes as he pulled out of his gig at the Riverbend Music Center in Cincinnati last night. Organisers confirmed the Maggie May singer was undergoing an &#8220;unforeseen but minor medical procedure&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">A statement released by the venue read: &#8220;Due to an unforeseen but minor medical procedure that required prompt attention, Rod Stewart\u2019s performance tonight in Cincinnati has been postponed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;Rescheduling is currently underway, with additional information to follow on Tuesday.

Doctors diagnosed the star with an acute upper respiratory infection. It later resulted in laryngitis, meaning he was unable to sing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">However, despite his ailments, Rod was spotted a day later <a aria-label=\"in the stands at Boston Stadium watching Scotland secure a victory against HaitiLink opens in a new tab.\" class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/3am\/celebrity-news\/rod-stewart-cheers-scotland-world-37293193\" rel=\"follow\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"_blank\">in the stands at Boston Stadium watching Scotland secure a victory against Haiti<\/a> in the <a aria-label=\"World Cup 2026.Link opens in a new tab.\" class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/world-cup-2026\" rel=\"follow\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"_blank\">World Cup 2026.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">He said of the incident shortly afterwards: &#8220;No, I got an awful&#8230; I really shouldn&#8217;t have gone to the Haiti game. You know, I had to cancel a show the night before because I just had no voice left. But the truth is, Jim, I wasn&#8217;t going to let my two sons down.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Explaining his reason, he went on: &#8220;I promised them since they were born that we were going to go to a World Cup. And this is the first one that&#8217;s come about. And it wasn&#8217;t a good look, I admit, but I&#8217;m going to have to just take the stick. So I did it for the boys.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">He also paused a gig earlier this summer to use an oxygen tank after nearly fainting on stage. Last week Rod also cancelled a show at the last minute, but this time it wasn&#8217;t health related. Just hours before the show was supposed to start in Niagara Falls, the musician had to disappoint fans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">In an <a aria-label=\"\" class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/instagram\" rel=\"follow\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"\">Instagram<\/a> Stories statement, his team said: &#8220;Important information about tonight&#8217;s show. Due to a mechanical fault with the aircraft&#8217;s landing gear, Rod Stewart is regretfully unable to travel to Niagara Falls and must postpone tonight&#8217;s performance at Fallsview Casino Resort. Rod is deeply disappointed and apologises to fans for the inconvenience.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\"><em><strong class=\"Strong_strong__e2x35\">Like this story?
