Michael Bublé 'considering quitting music' ahead of Christmas season

Michael Bublé is considering quitting music to become a full time dad.

The singing sensation, best known for his Christmas time hits, described how he would like to take a step back from his career in the spotlight. Touching on the subject of his children during an appearance on the Gaby Roslin Podcast, he admitted he’s thinking of quitting music in order to spend more time with them.

The dad-of-four said: "I’m getting close to thinking maybe I can just go and be a dad. I have this picture in my head, of just me in a field with my kids and Ed Sheeran’s kids and we are just hugging each other and pic-nicking and getting drunk.”

Michael shares four children with Argentinian actress wife Luisana Lopilato: Noah, nine, Elias, six, Vida, four, and baby Cielo, born in August this year. He is a devoted and hands on dad and often shares updates from their lives on his social media accounts.

The singer has suggested before that he’s thought about quitting his music career, particularly after eldest son Noah was diagnosed with liver cancer in 2016, when he took two years off. Luckily, Noah made a full recovery and is now healthy again and Michael eventually returned to the stage.

At the time of his son's cancer journey, Michael said: "I had no interest in my career and I’m grateful I could afford to take time out." He later added: "My whole being’s changed. My perception of life.

"I don’t know if I can even get through this conversation without crying. And I’ve never lost control of my emotions in public."
