All four siblings have a special bond. "You worry how the kids will mix and blend," the GMA host said to People. "But brothers and sisters are brothers and sisters regardless of different mothers."

They fought for years over custody of their kids, however, they appear to have mastered the art of co-parenting.

He opened up about his relationship with Jean in an interview on In Depth with Graham Bensinger, and confessed: "My second marriage was definitely not the greatest experience," before adding: "But I did learn a lot from that and I ended up with two incredible teenagers.

"I think marriage is great, and I know I have had a few failures. But you learn from your failures."

Isabella uploaded vlog posts to YouTube throughout her diagnosis and treatment, keeping fans and supporters in the loop as she battled cancer. 

Michael said Isabella taught him some lessons throughout the process, namely that: "You take your pain, and you make it a message," and that you "can help other people get through their pain through your message."
