Michael Buble’s son Noah has started chemotherapy for what is believed to be liver cancer, it has been reported.

Doctors are saying the three-year-old has a 90% chance of surviving the disease after his four-month course of treatment.

Noah, who was living in Buenos Aries when he started feeling unwell, is being now cared for in Los Angeles.

His mum Luisana’s sister, Daniela, told Gente magazine: “Cancer is a horrible illness but we have faith in Noah being able to overcome this.

“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.

“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.”

Noah was taken to see a doctor after suffering from a high fever and suspected mumps. That was ruled out but tests for other diseases discovered a liver problem.

Gente added: “The doctors told Luisana, ‘He has a stain on his liver, but it’s not got different tones and it’s probably benign, but we have to continue with the tests.”

Canadian singer Buble, 41, who was working in London, is said to have asked his 29-year-old wife to seek a second opinion in Los Angeles. Luisana flew to the States on October 29 with their nine-month-old son Elias and parents Eduardo and Betty.

It was also reported little Noah may need to have surgery after his chemo.
