BOLTON’S BIRTHDAY

Michael Bolton Appears Frail in Pic Celebrating His Birthday

The Grammy-winner posted a family picture to celebrate his birthday following his brain tumor diagnosis.

Grammy-winning singer Michael Bolton posted a rare family photo on Wednesday, following his brain tumor diagnosis. He took to Facebook to share a snapshot of the celebrations on his 72nd birthday with his children and his grandchildren. “Spending my birthday filled with love and gratitude,” his caption read. “Wishing you all the same, today & everyday!” Bolton was surrounded by his two daughters Holly and Taryn, along with three of his granddaughters. His third daughter Isa was not in the picture. The “How Am I Supposed to Live Without You” singer’s birthday celebration follows news that he canceled his upcoming London concert while he recovers from brain surgery amid his battle with cancer. In late 2023, Bolton was diagnosed with brain cancer and had to undergo “immediate surgery.” Later in Jan. 2024, he shared a health update with fans writing: “I want to start by wishing everyone a very happy and healthy new year! I also want to share that 2023 ended up presenting me with some very unexpected challenges.” He added: “Just before the holidays, it was discovered that I had a brain tumor, which required immediate surgery.” At that time he had claimed that he “will be devoting my time and energy to my recovery” and will “take a temporary break from touring.”
