Michael Bublé to headline Hyde Park gig after son Noah's successful cancer treatment

Michael Bublé, 42, has been unveiled as the latest headliner for the British Summer Time festival in Hyde Park scheduled for 13 July, 2018. This will be Bublé's first gig since he took a career break following four-year-old son Noah's cancer diagnosis.

"I can't wait to come over to see my fans in London and play BST Hyde Park for my largest ever UK show," said the singer.

Referring to his hit single Haven't Met You Yet , he added: "You guys have been patient and I can't thank you enough for all your support. And for those of you that haven't seen me live, well... I just haven't met you yet!"

A year ago, Bublé and his Argentine actress and model wife Luisana Lopilato, 30 decided to take time off from their professional commitments when Noah, who was just three years old, was diagnosed with cancer.

The Canadian singer had revealed the sad news on Lopilato's Facebook profile: "We are devastated by the recent cancer diagnosis of our eldest son Noah who is currently in treatment in the United States. We've always talked a lot about the importance of the family and the love we have for our children.

"Luisana and I are going to devote all our time and attention to helping Noah get better, failing our professional activities for now.

"During this difficult time, we ask you to pray for him and please respect our privacy. We have a long road ahead and we hope that with the support of our family, friends, fans around the world and our faith in God, we can win this battle."

The couple have a younger son Elias, who is approaching his second birthday.

In March, the pair confirmed Noah's treatment had been successful and that he was on the road to recovery. The Daily Mail quoted Lopilato as saying: "Thank God, my son is well. When things like those that happened to us occur, your take on life changes. It happened to us. Now I value life much more, the now and the today. I would like to thank people for their support, for the prayers they said, for their love. And I want them to know that they reached us and that it helped us a lot to come through this.

"My son's recovery is a long process as you all know and he has to continue with check-ups. But we are very happy. We are looking forward to thinking about the future, to seeing our children grow."

Before his hiatus, Bublé had released his seventh studio album titled Nobody But Me, in October 2016. It debuted at number two on the UK charts and was certified platinum by January 2017.

The multiple Grammy Award winner will be joining the legendary Roger Waters, founding member of Pink Floyd and Bruno Mars on the Hyde Park stage.
