MANILA, Philippines — Grammy-nominated singer Lea Salonga recently broke her leg in a ski accident in Hokkaido, Japan. 

In her Instagram account, Lea posted a video captioned “An announcement! But know that I’m okay, sense of humor intact. See you all soon, sitting down!”

“I broke my leg on a slope. Clearly, I have not learned the art of stopping so I crashed pretty hard and I broke my tibia,” Lea said in the video.
 
However, Lea assured her fans that she’s okay and her scheduled concerts will push through.

“But that doesn’t mean that the concerts aren’t pushing through. This is just to let you know I am okay, I can sing and I will see you in Hong Kong, in Singapore, in the UK sitting down more than I normally would,” she said. 

Apart from her concerts abroad, Lea will also be the special guest of international singer Josh Groban during his post Valentine concert in Manila on February 22. 

Lea and husband Robert Charles Chien celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary in Japan. She earlier posted a photo of them together, greeting her husband on their special day.

“Happy Anniversary to the man that takes me on adventures I’ve never been on!!! Thanks for this holiday, Hon!!! Love you!!! #15andCounting,” she wrote.
