In a conversation had over Bumble, one fan’s date told them: “Even though they had to cancel all of the shows that Harry took the hit and paid his core crew the salary for the entirety of what the tour would have been.”

They claimed a friend of theirs is Harry’s “lighting director.”

The fan sharing the screenshot reminded followers: “I cannot 100 per cent confirm whether this is true or false.”

Anyone who knows me, knows that performing has always been my favorite part of working in music. However, during times like these, the safety and protection of touring crew, fans, and everyone else around the world is an immediate priority. For obvious reasons, the upcoming tour in the UK and Europe will be rescheduled to 2021.  Tickets already purchased will be valid for these shows. In the meantime, we will be closely monitoring the situation around the world and will continue updating you in the months to come. For the safety of yourself and others, please self-isolate. We’re all in this together. I can’t wait to see you out on the road as soon as it’s safe to do so. Until then, treat people with kindness. H

While it’s not yet been confirmed if Harry is financially supporting his tour crew, we wouldn’t be surprised if the One Direction star has made such a gesture.

His slogan is, after all, ‘treat people with kindness.’

The ‘Adore You’ singer said in March ‘the safety of tour crew, fans and everyone else around the world’ is a priority of his, and fans will be able to use their 2020 dated tickets for the rescheduled 2021 shows.

Harry was meant to be embarking on a string of dates in North America in August after touring across Europe, but instead has been making music at home throughout lockdown.
