The band did not disclose what the issue was, but Barker is expecting a baby with wife Kourtney Kardashian, E! News reported.
He also shared several photos on Instagram with a prayer room sign that looked like a chapel, the entertainment news outlet reported.
Kardashian has not shared any news, Rolling Stone reported.
Kardashian announced her pregnancy during Blink-182′s concert in Los Angeles in June where she held up a sign that read “Travis, I’m pregnant,” USA Today reported.
The two stops in Glasgow, one in Belfast and one in Dublin are all postponed, but it appears that the band will take the stage together on Sept. 8 in Antwerp, Belgium, Rolling Stone reported.
The tour, which is the first for the original lineup in eight years, has had other delays, including postponing the March start after Barker injured his finger during rehearsals, Entertainment Weekly reported.
The couple has children with each of their previous partners. Barker is dad to Landon Barker, 19, Alabama Barker, 17 and stepdaughter Atiana De La Hoya, 24, with ex-wife Shanna Moakler. Kardashian has three children with ex, Scott Disick — Mason Disick, 13, Penelope Disick, 11 and Reign Disick, 8. This is their first child together, E! News reported.
Requests for more information by E! News and Entertainment Weekly have not been returned.
