Michael Bolton’s Daughters Say He’s in ‘Very Good Health’ as Brain Cancer Recovery Advances

The singer remains offstage under MRI scans every two months for glioblastoma, a cancer with a high recurrence rate.

Overview

  • In a new AARP interview, Isa, Holly and Taryn Bolton report their father is in very good spirits with strong mobility and cognition.
  • Bolton was diagnosed with glioblastoma in December 2023, underwent emergency surgery with a complete tumor resection, then had a second brain surgery in January 2024 for an infection.
  • He completed radiation and chemotherapy in October 2024 and continues surveillance imaging every two months to check for recurrence.
  • His daughters have taken on primary caregiving roles, with Taryn and her children living with him in Westport, Isa helping three days a week, and Holly traveling monthly from California.
  • The family says a post-surgical personality change was short-term and improved with therapy, and Bolton says he feels deeply grateful for time with his children and six grandchildren.
