The Italian tenor reveals his secret to overcoming his struggles is his family, saying:

"My family has been my great strength. I was a much-loved child. My parents taught me perseverance but also interior and exterior beauty, a teaching that has shaped my life. Like everybody, I have experienced moments of despair, even heavy ones."

The youngest son of Andrea Bocelli has followed in his father's footsteps. Matteo joined his father on his father's first album of new music in 14 years called "Si."

Andrea revealed he did not know his son could sing until two years ago saying:

"Because he stayed at the piano, he knows music just for this… And one time his mother came to me and said, 'Have you heard Matteo sing?' And I said no. And she said, 'Listen to him because he's very nice.'"
