"We've tried absolutely everything that we can to pull it together in time and for it to be good enough for you but we've been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and Covid.
"Half my team are down with Covid, they still are, and it's impossible to finish the show.
"I can't give you what I have right now and I'm gutted and I'm sorry it's so last minute."

She added: "We're on it right now we're going to reschedule all the dates and I'm going to finish my show and I'm going to get it to where it needs to be.
