Céline promised her husband she’d be there for him to ‘die in my arms.’
I have been an ardent fan of Celine Dion since her crossover into the American music scene. I remember her first album in English … “Unison“, released in 1990.
“Where does my heart beat now?”
It’s all history after that.
With time, I got to know her story. One aspect which amazed me most was the size of her main family. She was the youngest of 14 siblings!
Then came her fairy tale love story, her marriage, her growing family and her continued worldwide success.
Celine and her family have just suffered the loss of the patriarch of the family, her mentor, her manager, the maker of her career.
I can barely being to imagine her sense of loss.
This makes me sad.
I can only wish Celine, her children and her family, strength in this time of grief.
I will continue following her steps wherever she goes.
It is with deep sadness that we announce that René Angélil, aged 73, died this morning, January 14, 2016) at his residence in Las Vegas after a long and courageous fight against cancer.
The family wishes to live the mourning in privacy.
Other information you will be provided in the next few days.
