There’s nothing like sweet music to spark the romance, but dad-to-be Michael Bublé would take a bawling baby to heat things up with wife Luisana any day.
“I’m more in love with my wife than I ever was,” the singer-songwriter tells Entertainment Tonight Canada Tuesday.
But only recently did Bublé, 37, learn the real reason behind their successful relationship.
“I had my mom and dad over the other night and … I asked them, ‘How do [you] do it?’ My dad said, ‘I love your mom a lot, but the key is I like her,’” he says.
“We fight … but we like each other. Honestly, I never had a woman in my life where I didn’t need anyone else. I didn’t need to go on holiday with another couple — just with her, she drives me nuts enough.”
Currently pregnant with the couple’s first child, Luisana’s cravings are nothing short of crazy, says Bublé.
“Some women crave pickles or ice cream. My wife wants blood sausages. Sausage made of congealed blood,” he shares. “And I promise you, she hated it her whole life and now she said, ‘Mike, I want some blood sausage,’ and it’s like, ‘What the hell?’”
From keeping up with Luisana’s cravings to prepping for parenthood, Bublé has been busy with it all — thanks to a few changes to the singer’s touring schedule.
“I used to go for a month and a half or a month and then I would take a week off. And now the schedule is three weeks on, two weeks off,” he says.
Noting that while his career is “important,” the first-time father clarifies that his personal life will always take priority over any professional commitments.
“I just don’t want to look back and say, ‘God, I should have been there more,’ because I have a feeling that I’ll never look back and say, ‘Jeez, I should have worked more,’” Bublé explains.
