Canadian singer Michael Buble’s three-year-old son, Noah, was diagnosed with cancer, Bubble said late Friday (Manila time) in his official Facebook page.
He, together with wife Luisana Lopilato, announced they are taking a break immediately from work and other commitments to be with their son in these trying times until he recovers.
Buble’s statement read: “We are devastated about the recent cancer diagnosis of our oldest son Noah who is currently undergoing treatment in the US.
“We have always been very vocal about the importance of family and the love we have for our children. Luisana and I have put our careers on hold in order to devote all our time and attention to helping Noah get well.
“At this difficult time, we ask only for your prayers and respect for our privacy.
“We have a long journey in front of us and hope that with the support of family, friends and fans around the world, we will win this battle, God willing.”
Buble has just started promoting his new album titled “Nobody But Me” while Luisana was working on a new film set in Argentina. They have a younger son named Elias.
Buble didn’t specify what type of cancer Noah has been diagnosed with.
Buble has performed in the Philippines several times, most recent of which was in January, 2015. Totel V. de Jesus
