"It is with a heavy heart that I have to announce the cancellation of our U.S. tour following the passing of my beautiful boyfriend Billy on Tuesday evening," Hollingworth wrote. "While we had planned to fly to the U.S. on Saturday, I didn't feel ready to be away from my family and friends at this traumatic time."

As of now — per the statement — the group still plan to travel to California and play Coachella later this month as a "Tribute to Billy and his memory."
