Robin Thicke thanks fans for support and returns to tour after marriage split

Robin Thicke has spoken publicly for the first time since the split of his marriage to Paula Patton.

As previously reported, the 'Blurred Lines' man and Patton confirmed recently in a joint statement that they would be going their separate ways after nearly nine years of marriage.

He cancelled a tour date last night (February 25) due to "unforeseen circumstances" after shelving two weekend shows because of illness.

However, in statement issued on this website, Thicke - who has one child with actress Patton - confirmed that he will now resume touring. He said:

"I want to thank everyone for the well wishes these last few days. My fans mean everything to me. I’m looking forward to getting back on out on the road and performing in Washington DC this Thursday, and the rest of the tour. Looking forward to seeing everyone out there!"
