When Michael first shared the news about his son they released a statement to Facebook explaining their situation and asking for prayers.

“We are devastated about the recent cancer diagnosis of our oldest son Noah, who is currently undergoing treatment in the US. We have always been very vocal about the importance of family and the love we have for our children.

“Luisana and I have put our careers on hold in order to devote all our time and attention to helping Noah get well. At this difficult time, we ask only for your prayers and respect for our privacy.”
