The 72-year-old singer first revealed that he had been diagnosed with a brain tumour in January 2023 and had to undergo immediate surgery. Two months after the initial post Bolton shared another update with his fans, writing: 'I've been enjoying the company of my daughters and grandkids during this time at home, and on my putting green whenever it's not raining!'
Here's everything to know about Michael Bolton's ex-wife of 15 years and daughters.

Maureen McGuire began dating Bolton in 1973 and the pair married only two years later, a decade before the 'When a Man Loves A Woman' crooner found success in the late 1980s. They were both still in their early 20s when they decided to wed.
Bolton later went on to say in a 2019 interview with The Sydney Morning Herald: 'By my late 20s I was already married and had three daughters. Guys in their 20s don't have a clue who they are as human beings.'
'Men don't get around to that until their 30s or 40s, which is roughly 10 years later than most women, who seem to know exactly who they are,' he added.
