This is the second time the Give Me A Reason hitmaker has been admitted to hospital in recent days; her first concert in Sydney was scheduled for last Friday, but she cancelled that show on doctors orders.
However, the mother of two faced criticism from fans after The Daily Telegraph ran pictures of spending the day at Byron bay beach.
She set the record straight in a post on Instagram, writing: You can think whatever you want, its your right, but I have never taken advantage of any one in my entire life. I have never f**ked off while disrespecting hard working people who spend money to come see me play. I have never phoned in a single tour, I have an impeccable record for not cancelling.

I mother with everything I have whilst handling all the rest. The snark in this is unbelievable and makes me long for a nicer world.
Im doing the absolute best I can, and you can believe it or not. As I said, Im sorry to the real fans who this situation has affected. Onwards and upwards.
