Katseye's Sophia Laforteza will not be joining the group for its UK and European tour dates.

The singer has pulled out of the upcoming Wildworld dates, which are scheduled to launch on Tuesday.

In a statement posted to social media, Katseye's label shared that Laforteza is committed to "focusing on her well-being" after announcing her temporary hiatus from the group in early August.

"The company remains fully committed to providing her with all the support and resources needed," the statement reads. "Sophia will not be participating in the Wildworld tour in Europe and the UK scheduled from September 1 through September 17."

The message continues, "We sincerely ask for Eyekons' warm understanding, as our highest priority will always be the health and long-term well-being of our artists. We will share further updates as they become available. Please continue to send your love, warmth and support to Sophia and Katseye."

Katseye has had a series of hurdles to overcome. In February, after they performed at the Grammys, Manon Bannerman announced that she would be taking a temporary hiatus from Katseye to "focus on her health and wellbeing". She is not joining the Wildworld tour either.

Earlier this month, Laforteza announced that she would be following suit so that she could prioritise her "mental health and wellness".

The group then dropped out of Olivia Rodrigo's Daisy Chain Fields festival last week, citing Megan Skiendiel's ankle injury as the reason.

Meanwhile, Katseye has enjoyed its biggest week yet on the Billboard Hot 100 as their EP Wild debuted at number one.
