Michael spoke about the pain he and his family endured since son Noah’s cancer diagnosis, admitting his world ended when he and wife Luisana found out their three-year-old was battling liver hepatoblastoma.

‘I became the strength – somehow – to pull us and lift us and to be positive,’ said the singer of the initial stages of Noah’s diagnosis.

‘I’m not OK,’ Michael said as he fought back emotions. ‘My wife picks me up now.’

The 43-year-old dad of three told James Corden that it was still ‘too hard to talk about’ the experience and that it was ‘hard to have to acknowledge’ the diagnose in the early stages.
