According to TMZ, the team is not in a rush to start the tour. They will continue once the pop singer feels any better.

Grande's manager Scooter Braun issues a statement saying, "We mourn the lives of children and loved ones taken by this cowardly act. We ask all of you to hold the victims, their families, and all those affected in your hearts and prayers."

Aside from England, the pop singer was supposed to appear in Belgium, Poland, Germany, and Switzerland.

The 23-year-old suicide bomber responsible for last Monday's attack at Grande's concert has been identified as Salamani Abedi. The attack claimed the lives of 22 people. One of the fatalities was an eight-year-old.

Reports reveal that at least 59 people, all of which attended the concert, are wounded. Many are still in critical condition. The news outlet says that 12 of the wounded are children.

The infamous terrorist group Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL better known as ISIS) claims responsibility for the bombing. Through social media, the group declares, "one of the caliphate's soldiers placed bombs among the crowds."

The attack is the deadliest in Britain since the 2005 suicide bombings that took the lives of 52 people.
