Vancouver, Canada – May 28, 2025 – Michael Bublé, the Canadian crooner who has captivated audiences worldwide with his velvety voice, is celebrating a double dose of joy this week. Just one week after securing his second consecutive victory as a coach on The Voice Season 27, Bublé and his wife, Luisana Lopilato, welcomed their fifth child—a moment of profound happiness that has left the singer beaming with pride. The combination of professional triumph and personal bliss has made this a banner month for Bublé, whose life seems to be hitting all the right notes.
Bublé’s journey on The Voice began in 2024 when he joined Season 26 as a rookie coach alongside Gwen Stefani, Reba McEntire, and Snoop Dogg. Despite his initial reservations about the role—he had turned down the show over 15 times before agreeing to join, citing discomfort with judging other vocalists—Bublé quickly found his footing. His empathetic and humorous approach to coaching resonated with contestants and viewers alike, leading to a historic win with Sofronio Vasquez, a 31-year-old Filipino singer from Utica, New York. Vasquez, dubbed the “Filipino Phenom,” made history as the first Filipino winner of the U.S. version of The Voice, taking the crown in December 2024 with a soulful performance of The Miracles’ “Who’s Lovin’ You” alongside Bublé. The victory was especially meaningful for Bublé, who saw Vasquez as a symbol of hope for dreamers worldwide, particularly in the Philippines and across Asia.
Reflecting on that first win, Bublé told NBC Insider, “There was a whole country watching this like a Super Bowl, no joke. It wasn’t just the Philippines—it was Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, people in China. They saw themselves in this kid, and it’s very cool.” Vasquez’s journey from a challenging upbringing in Mindanao, Philippines, to the Voice stage resonated deeply with Bublé, who praised his artistry and stage presence, noting how Vasquez could “bend songs to his will as an interpreter.” The win marked a triumphant debut for Bublé, who also coached runner-up Shye in the same season, securing the top two spots in the finale.
Bublé returned for Season 27, which premiered in February 2025, alongside coaches John Legend, Adam Levine, and Kelsea Ballerini. Determined to build on his success, he leaned into the lesson he learned from his first season: “Always be empathetic.” His approach paid off once again, as he led 34-year-old Adam David from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to victory on May 20, 2025. David, a one-chair turn during the Blind Auditions with his soulful rendition of Peter Frampton’s “Baby I Love Your Way,” became an underdog favorite, breaking the long-standing Instant Save curse by winning after being saved by online votes. His finale performances of Joe Cocker’s “You Are So Beautiful” and Brandon Lake and Jelly Roll’s “Hard Fought Hallelujah” showcased his emotional depth, earning him the title and Bublé his second consecutive championship.
“I love you, man,” Bublé told David moments before the confetti fell during the Season 27 finale. “You’re my kind of artist. I love you, and congratulations. I know you can do it.” Bublé’s mentorship was pivotal for David, who struggled with imposter syndrome throughout the competition. The coach advised him to preserve his sensitivity, telling NBC Insider, “That sensitivity and insecurity is what gives you the ability to connect to an audience. Don’t lose it. Don’t get cold and calloused, because it gets real ugly real fast.” David’s win, coupled with teammate Jadyn Cree’s fifth-place finish, solidified Bublé’s reputation as an exceptional coach, making him one of the first artists in recent years to coach more than two consecutive seasons, as he is set to return for Season 28 later this year alongside Reba McEntire, Niall Horan, and Snoop Dogg.
The victories have been a source of immense pride for Bublé, a Burnaby, British Columbia native who has sold over 75 million records worldwide and won five Grammy Awards for albums like Crazy Love and Call Me Irresponsible. But as much as these professional milestones mean to him, they pale in comparison to the personal joy he experienced this week with the arrival of his fifth child. On May 27, 2025, Bublé and Lopilato welcomed a baby boy, whom they named Luca Matteo Santaga Bublé, in honor of Bublé’s Italian heritage and Lopilato’s father, Eduardo Matteo. The couple announced the news on Instagram, sharing a black-and-white photo of Luca’s tiny hand grasping Bublé’s finger. “Our hearts are bursting with love,” Lopilato wrote in the caption. “Welcome to the world, Luca Matteo Santaga Bublé—our little miracle. 3.5 kg of pure joy! We love you, Noah, Elias, Vida, Cielo, and your mom and dad.”
Bublé and Lopilato, an Argentinian actress and model, have been married since 2011 and are already parents to four children: Noah, 11, Elias, 9, Vida, 6, and Cielo, 2. The couple’s journey as parents has not been without challenges—most notably, Noah’s liver cancer diagnosis in 2016 at the age of 3, which led them to put their careers on hold to focus on his treatment. Noah is now in remission, a fact Bublé often reflects on with gratitude, as he did during an emotional moment on The Voice Season 26 with contestant Sloane Simon, whose father was battling cancer. “I went through my own personal thing when my son got sick, and I couldn’t get through it,” Bublé shared, a sentiment that underscored his empathy as a coach and a father.
The arrival of Luca marks a new chapter for the Bublé family, who have often shared glimpses of their close-knit life in Burnaby, where they reside. Bublé, an avid hockey fan and co-owner of the Vancouver Giants, has spoken about the joy his children bring him, telling The Project in 2023, “They’re the greatest things ever, they’re my joy. They let me laugh at life and laugh at myself. It really puts life in perspective.” That joy was evident in a video Bublé posted on Instagram shortly after Luca’s birth, showing him returning home from the hospital to be greeted by his four older children, who ran to him with excited hugs. “This is what I live for, you guys,” he said in the clip, his voice cracking with emotion. “This is literally my happiness.”
Fans have flooded social media with messages of congratulations, celebrating both Bublé’s Voice wins and his growing family. “Michael Bublé is winning at life—two Voice championships and now a fifth child? What a legend!” one user wrote on X. Another added, “Seeing Michael with his kids always makes me tear up. He’s such a devoted dad, and now he’s got another little one to love. So happy for him and Luisana!” The outpouring of support reflects Bublé’s enduring appeal—not just as a pop icon who has revived interest in traditional standards and the Great American Songbook, but as a family man whose authenticity resonates deeply with his audience.
For Bublé, the timing of these events feels serendipitous. In an interview with PEOPLE earlier this year, he hinted at the possibility of expanding their family, saying, “We’re really trying to be present with the pregnancy because, most likely, it’s the last time.” While Cielo was thought to be their final child, the arrival of Luca suggests that the couple’s love for family knows no bounds. Bublé’s Italian heritage, which he often celebrates—he holds dual Italian and Canadian citizenship—played a role in naming their newest addition, with “Santaga” honoring his mother Amber’s maiden name and his paternal great-grandparents, who immigrated to Canada from Italy.
As Bublé prepares for his third season on The Voice, set to premiere later this year, he remains grounded in the values that have defined his life and career: family, empathy, and a passion for music. His back-to-back wins have solidified his place in the show’s history, but it’s the love he shares with Lopilato and their children that truly defines his legacy. In a recent Instagram post, Bublé reflected on his whirlwind week, writing, “I’ve won awards and coached incredible artists, but nothing compares to the feeling of holding my kids. Luca, you’ve made our family complete. Here’s to love, music, and all the dreams that come true.”
For Michael Bublé, May 2025 will be remembered as a month of double blessings—a professional triumph that showcased his mentorship prowess and a personal milestone that expanded his heart even further. As he continues to make music and inspire others, both on and off the Voice stage, one thing is clear: Bublé’s greatest hits are the moments he shares with his family, now five children strong.
