Singer Celine Dion has apologised to fans and cancelled the remaining dates on her Courage World Tour as she struggles to “build back” her strength following a diagnosis of stiff person syndrome.

Last year, Dion, 55, revealed she had been diagnosed with the rare neurological condition stiff person syndrome after having muscle spasms.
