Michael Bolton, the Grammy-winning artist behind timeless hits like “How Am I Supposed To Live Without You” and “When A Man Loves A Woman,” has recently shared a family photo that shows the legendary singer recovering from a brain tumor.

In January 2023, Bolton publicly addressed his issue with a brain tumor and stated that he would take a break from performing while he recovers.

Michael Bolton pursued a career as a hard rock singer and joined the group Blackjack as a lead singer. A lesser-known fact about Bolton is that he married young to Maureen McGuire. The couple was still in their 20s when they had three daughters, as reported by People Magazine.

Michael Bolton was married to Maureen McGuire from 1975 when they were both in their early twenties. But as Bolton's career soared after the release of The Hunger in 1987, their marriage was strained due to personal reasons. The couple got divorced in 1990, after 15 years of marriage.

Bolton later reflected on the struggles of getting married young, telling The Sydney Morning Herald in 2019 that men in their twenties are usually without a strong sense of who they are.

Bolton and McGuire had three daughters during their marriage. Isa, Holly, and Taryn Bolton were all born two years apart.

After their divorce, Maureen McGuire largely went back home to East Haven, Connecticut, and eventually got a new calling as a yoga instructor. Using her experience as a dancer, she started with teaching fitness classes, according to Hollywood Life.

A Look at Michael Bolton’s Current Relationship with Heather Kerzner

Michael Bolton in a recent interview with People Magazine revealed his relationship with Heather Kerzner. The couple, who made their red carpet-debut in February, have been friends for almost 15 years but only started dating last summer.

Bolton, 70, stated that their relationship feels natural and fulfilling and that while signing as many major albums as he does can be stressful, Kerzner brightens his life. He said:

"My work takes up a lot of space, and I've been learning what the whole process is of having someone who really brightens up your life."

Kerzner, a 54-year-old socialite and mother of two had previously been married to hotelier Sol Kerzner and then got briefly engaged to James Henderson, before dating Bolton.

Apart from his marriage with Maureen McGuire, Michael Bolton has also been in a relationship with actress Nicollette Sheridan in the 2000s.

The singer's next album Spark of Light, is supposedly influenced by his family and the challenges of the pandemic.
