Jane’s Addiction singer Perry Farrell’s wife, Etty Lau, is providing an update on her husband following his onstage fight with bandmate Dave Navarro, and the subsequent cancellation of their tour.

On Instagram, Lau shared a post on Saturday, beginning by thanking fans for their support.

"Beyond grateful and so very humbled we are, to all the dears that have taken the time to send us such beautiful words of love and support – checking in over and over again to make sure we are well taken care of. Offering love and compassion, words of kindness, and even your homes for us to escape to…" Lau wrote.

She continued, saying Farrell is "the gentlest of souls" and apologizing for his altercation on stage earlier this month with Navarro, saying, "We are equally astonished at Perry’s physical outburst as you are – but you must know that Perry must had been pushed to his absolute limit... to that end we apologize."

Farrell was caught on camera at a Boston show earlier this month throwing a punch at the band’s guitarist, Navarro. 

Security guards quickly broke up the fight and told Farrell to "stop," while they held him down to prevent further attacks on the guitarist. Navarro grabbed Farrell’s arm, and he was enraged, as he attempted to attack the guitarist again.
