Michael Bublé on marriage: 'It's a scary commitment and I didn't get it at first'

Canadian heartthrob Michael Bublé has revealed that he never wanted to get married and surprised himself when he tied the knot with Luisana Lopilato back in 2011. 

Speaking during a new interview on 'George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight', the crooner explained that the idea of marriage had always intimidated him and it wasn't something he ever thought he would do:

"It's funny... I've said it before and I get in trouble for it, I fell in love with my wife. She's a great person. And it's weird, I wanted to get married to her because I wanted to be with her for my life. She's my best friend. But did I want to get married? It's a scary commitment. I gotta be honest, by the time I hit my 30s marriage was out. I just looked at my friends who got married and went, 'Why?' Especially friends who got married and didn't have kids. Then I was really stumped."

"I was, like, 'So what's your reason for being married if you're not going to have kids? Why are you doing it?' It's just one of those things, you know. I couldn't have known it was going to be as good as it is."

Bublé then added that he still doubts himself and worries about his abilities as not only a husband, but a father, but he's so glad he put his concerns to one side and just took the plunge: 

"Even having a kid, I thought I was way too selfish, impatient and I thought I was scared every day, even when she was pregnant, I was like, 'Am I good enough? Am I going to be a good dad? Am I going to be an absentee father?' It's a tough conversation. It's something we struggle with daily."
