People reported Monday that Chigvintsev, 39, will rejoin the tour following his monthlong battle with pneumonia.

Us Weekly and E! News confirmed the news.

Chigvintsev had said Jan. 20 on Instagram that he was stepping away from the tour due to health issues.

"My time on tour so far has been wonderful -- unfortunately I am having to step away from tour for a while, due to some unexpected health issues. My goal is to recover as quickly as possible so I can rejoin my cast and crew on this incredible tour," he wrote.

Chigvintsev gave an update Feb. 3 on Instagram Stories, telling fans he was battling pneumonia.

"So, I had another X-ray done yesterday, and it came back still positive for pneumonia, so I just got another set of antibiotics. This is of course number two," he said.

"Hopefully, this one will do the magic, will do the trick, to kick out the pneumonia out of my lungs. So that's where I'm at."
