Michael Bolton's daughters open up about their father's cancer journey

Michael Bolton’s daughters are opening up about their caregiving journey for their father, two years after he was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer.

The Grammy Award-winning singer’s daughters, Isa and Taryn, along with their sister Holly, have been caring for the 72-year-old as he continues to manage his condition.

Isa says they are proud and happy to update those following their father’s journey that he is in very good spirits and generally in good health.

She says that while there are many challenges, with some good days and some tough days, Bolton remains very strong overall.

Taryn adds that the atmosphere in the Bolton family’s Connecticut home has been positive, noting that the How Am I Supposed to Live Without You singer is generally in a very good mood and excited for each day.

Bolton was diagnosed with glioblastoma in December 2023 and underwent emergency surgery that same month, during which doctors were able to remove a brain tumor.

He completed radiation and chemotherapy in October 2024 and currently undergoes MRI scans every two months to ensure the tumor has not returned, as glioblastoma has a recurrence rate of about 90 percent.
