She left the stage immediately and was raced to hospital where she received emergency treatment at a hospital.

Murphy returned to the UK yesterday (October 28) where she has undergone an operation under general anaesthetic.

According to a statement: “Despite serious concussion and losing a lot of blood, her vision is unimpaired.”

Her European dates for the next seven dates have been cancelled, but it is hoped that she will make a full recovery before her UK and Irish tour begins on November 26.

The cancelled tour dates are set to be rescheduled for later in the year.
