It'll be a blow for Miranda who is passionate about her Velvet Rodeo Las Vegas Residency. Fans who also saw the announcement on Twitter, commented: "Please get well soon," and, "this is so sad, but we understand. Get better soon."

Miranda recently shared some surprising news when she revealed she was preparing for a new "adventure" after deciding to part ways with her record label, Sony, after 20 years.

The announcement was made even more poignant as she shared it on the 18th anniversary of the release of her first album, Kerosene. Sharing a collage of the stunning artwork for nine of her records, Miranda penned: "Since I was 19 years old, Sony has been my home in Nashville.

"Over the last 20 years Together we have released albums that allowed me to share my story with the world, and we've reached heights I'd never even dreamed were possible."

She continued: "I'm so thankful for our time together and everything they made possible for me, yet I wouldn't be true to myself if I wasn't constantly looking for the next challenge and a new way to stretch my creativity.

"With that in mind, I've decided to say goodbye to my Sony family. I can't wait to see what the next adventure holds."
