Posting on her Instagram Stories, the singer addressed her fans and wrote: \u201cMy sweet petals. I wanted to let you know I will need to be in cozy footwear for this evening\u2019s show (and possibly tomorrow\u2019s) as I am bandaged up underneath, recovering from a minor injury.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is not a sprain or anything muscular but just a deep cut!\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued: \u201cSo when you see me tonight without my signature heels, or even possibly having a little trouble putting weight on that foot, that is why!<\/p>\n

\u201cBut please do not fret. On with the show and I am on the mend!\u201d<\/p>\n

Concluding her post, Grande added: \u201cI cannot wait to perform for you tonight and tomorrow (even if I am a few inches shorter than usual)\u2026 I love you always. Two more\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

The Eternal Sunshine tour began in June and included more than 30 shows in North America before the singer undertook a total of 10 performances at London\u2019s O2 Arena.<\/p>\n

After the tour ends, Grande plans to take a step back from the public eye after facing what her representative called \u201cendless, ongoing public scrutiny\u201d.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month a statement from her team read: \u201cShe looks forward to finishing the tour and ending it on a high note, both healthily and happily, and then taking a much-deserved break from public-facing work and appearances, which has led to endless, ongoing public scrutiny.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis tour has been a beautiful experience for her. She loves her fans and has loved every minute of this tour so much.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking on stage at an earlier gig on the tour, Grande said her decision to take a break from public life came from \u201ca thoughtful and empowered place\u201d and was \u201cnot a reactive or impulsive thing\u201d.<\/p>\n

She has also dropped out of the upcoming London revival of the Stephen Sondheim musical Sunday In The Park With George, in which she was due to appear opposite Wicked co-star Jonathan Bailey.<\/p>\n

Her role is due to be recast.<\/p>\n
