Thanks to my incredible medical team, the surgery was a success. I am now recovering at home and surrounded by the amazing love and support of my family.

Over the coming weeks I will be devoting my time and energy to recovery, which means I will have to take a temporary break from touring. Disappointing fans or delaying performances is always the hardest thing for me to do, but I have no doubt that if I work hard to speed up my recovery, I will be back performing soon. I am grateful for the love and support you have so generously given me over the years.

Please know that I hold your positive messages in my heart and will provide more information as soon as I can. Love, MB,” wrote Michael Bolton on his personal Facebook page.
