Anita Dobson, wife of QUEEN guitarist Brian May, has told U.K.’s Mirror<\/a> that there won’t be any world tours in the band’s future.<\/p>\n

“They will do little bits and bobs, but they won’t do those big tours,” she said. “We are all getting old.”<\/p>\n

Dobson’s comments came after QUEEN drummer Roger Taylor told Rolling Stone magazine that he, May and singer Adam Lambert had no plans to stage a final farewell tour.<\/p>\n

“I don’t think we’re done,” he said. “And I don’t think we’re going to say a final farewell tour. Because it never is, is it?<\/p>\n

When pressed if QUEEN will be “resting forever,” he replied: “At one point we will be.”<\/p>\n

Last year Brian revealed that he suffered a minor stroke. Although the episode initially left the now-78-year-old rock legend unable to use his left arm, he has since regained enough movement to be able to play music again.<\/p>\n

May’s stroke came four years after he had a “small” heart attack. At the time, he said was shocked to realize he wasn’t as healthy as he thought, and he was “very near death”. He discovered three arteries were “congested and in danger of blocking the supply of blood to my heart”, and subsequently had surgery to fit three stents \u2014 tiny tubes to hold open blocked arteries.<\/p>\n

Five and a half years ago, May had to be hospitalized after he tore his buttocks “to shreds” while gardening. As a result, he developed severe sciatica and suffered what he later described as a “small heart attack” from the medication. May then had a bad reaction to his heart attack medication and nearly died. More recently, Brian underwent cataract eye surgery.<\/p>\n

He later said that he believed that coronavirus may have played a role in his heart attack because of the way the virus thickened the blood. As a result, he said he was living a “ridiculously careful” life with Dobson \u2014 whom he credited with saving his life.<\/p>\n

“She was incredible,” he told the Daily Express back in 2020. “I couldn’t do anything and she just kind of nursed me, so I will forever be in her debt; she did an incredible job on me.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Anita Dobson, wife of QUEEN guitarist Brian May, has told U.K.’s Mirror that there won’t be any world…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":179952,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[458,146,85,46],"class_list":["post-179951","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179951","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=179951"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179951\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/179952"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=179951"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=179951"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=179951"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
