The second time dad took the time to reflect on the birth of his first child, revealing that he went on tour two weeks after his daughter, Kensli was born back in 2015. He spoke about how he missed “important milestones” in her life and was not there to support his now wife, Kirsten during that time. The two were married in March.
Chance informed fans that they can still keep their tickets and use them for the rescheduled dates or get a refund.
