Michael Bublé recently encouraged fans to cherish their families after he had to say goodbye to his again. The star is going to have to spend time away from his family as he heads out on the Higher World Tour. Bublé has four children, Noah, Elias, Vida, and Cielo, who are 9, 7, 4, and six months old, with his wife Luisana Lopilato, 35.
Michael only had a few months at home since ending his tour last year. However, Michael stated that his son’s cancer has made him lose his alter ego and focus on the things that “really matter.” Everything changed for Bublé when his son Noah was diagnosed with hepatoblastoma, a rare type of liver cancer.
He shared an emotional message that reads, “Hey everybody. Just left the house on the way to the airport and it’s really tough leaving my wife and kids. It got me to thinking about all you beautiful people who get up and leave and travel far and just spend long days away from your kids. I know it’s hard. It sucks and I’m with you. I love doing what I do and I love doing it for you and I’m sure when I get to you you’ll bring me out of my funk. I’m on my way to Lisbon. I just want to tell you today, go give your kids a hug and a big kiss. Squeeze ‘em and enjoy every single second because it goes too fast. Thank you for being in my life and letting me show my kids that it’s important to be fulfilled in your job too and that that’s okay. I love you guys. See you out there, bye.”
Noah was first diagnosed with cancer at the age of three years old and is now nine.
