On Wednesday, July 27, country singer-songwriter Lainey Wilson, who will perform Abby in Yellowstone, announced on Instagram the cancellation of her weekend concerts in Iowa. The Things a Man Oughta Know singer revealed in a statement that she had to cancel due to a family situation. In the post she said:
“I will not be able to perform at this weekend’s concerts in Maquoketa, Iowa, and Arnold Park, Iowa. I apologize for canceling at the last minute, but know that I wouldn’t cancel if the situation wasn’t important. Please keep my family in your thoughts and prayers.”
Wilson’s first post did not mention the family situation. Just hours later, she shared a photo of herself with her father and asked fans to pray for him. The title read:
“My father [sic]. That’s my cowboy. Please continue to pray for him.”

She went on to describe her father as the hardest person she knew. The tweet said her father, Brian Wilson, a farmer in Louisiana, had health problems. However, the nature and extent of the situation is unknown.

“Growing up this way has taught me so much. From a young age, I understood that nothing comes easily.”
On Father’s Day last month, Lainey Wilson paid tribute to her father with a video posted to her Instagram page. In the caption, she praised her father for teaching her how to “roll up your sleeves and (get) it done.” Wilson’s mother remains unknown to the general public.
