The performer had also painted a vivid picture of what fans could expect from the shows, saying, “We’re going to be jumping, dancing. It’s going to be a party, but it’s a party for everyone, for kids, for adults, for grandparents. I love when I see grandparents in the crowd. I love when the dads sing every word. I go, ‘Yeah, Dad.’ It’s my favorite.”
Although the tour is no longer happening, Trainor’s music plans remain on track.

Counseling And Therapy Changed Trainor And Her Husband’s Marriage
Shortly before the heartbreaking announcement, Meghan Trainor opened up about how marriage counseling transformed her relationship, saying the experience was so effective she had to recommend it to everyone.
In a chat with Us Weekly, the mom of three revealed, “I was in marriage counseling while doing this album,” explaining that therapy helped her and her husband Sabara reconnect during a challenging period.
She added, “We’re so good now that I recommend it to everyone,” crediting the sessions for improving their communication and overall happiness.
Trainor shared that raising young children had put a strain on their relationship, noting that “one through five, your marriage gets pushed to the side,” which led to tension and confusion.
However, counseling helped them realize, “Why are we fighting? We’re on the same team.” Now in a much better place, Trainor said therapy not only strengthened their bond but also gave them tools to navigate marriage and parenthood more effectively.

Besides her marriage, Trainor has also been candid about her decision to opt for surrogacy.
Recently, the Grammy Award winner opened up about the emotional and “heartbreaking” side of surrogacy.
As The Blast reported, she revealed that the decision to welcome her third child that way was far from easy.
“[We had] heartbreaking, big decision-making to do,” Trainor noted, explaining that ongoing health struggles pushed her and Sabara to consider surrogacy as the safest option.
She admitted that not carrying her baby herself was one of the hardest parts, saying she constantly worried, “Is she okay?” and added, “You go cuckoo, you go crazy,” describing the anxiety of knowing her child was “alive in someone else.”
She also revealed the emotional toll of public backlash, calling it “a cloud of tears every night of just worry.”
Despite those struggles, Trainor acknowledged the process had positives, noting she didn’t have to recover from a C-section, but emphasized that the experience came with “a lot of scary parts,” even as it ultimately proved to be the best decision for her family.
