Michael Bublé shared the heartbreaking news that his 3-year-old son Noah has been diagnosed with cancer last week.

Bublé and his wife Luisana Lopilato announced Noah's diagnosis via social media, asking people for privacy during this time and saying they have put their careers on hold to be with their families.

Now, Lopilato's sister Daniela has revealed that Noah has started chemotherapy treatment in an interview with Argentina's Gente magazine (via The Mirror).

"Cancer is a horrible illness but we have faith in Noah being able to overcome this," Daniela said.

"We know he will. The time to start a long and very difficult treatment has come but it's got to be done.

"They say children are normally strong to put up with chemotherapy and my nephew is a warrior."

"He has the innocence of children and that is good," she continued.

"He doesn't understand too much what is happening. The love people are showing is helping us to see things with optimism and we have a lot of faith.

"We've always talked a lot about the importance of the family and the love we have for our children.

"[Luisana] and I are going to spend all our time and attention to help Noah to get better, by suspending our professional activities for now."
