Songstress Celine Dion<\/strong><\/a>, 54, is one of the music industry’s most talented singers and songwriters. During her decades-long career, she has won a total of five Grammy Awards<\/a> and 16 nominations. Not only that, but the blonde beauty has also become a pop culture icon with her song “My Heart Will Go On” becoming the track synonymous with the Titanic <\/em>movie<\/a> in 1997. However, when Celine isn’t laying down ballads in the studio or performing a Las Vegas residency, she can often be spotted remembering her late husband<\/a>, Ren\u00e9 Ang\u00e9lil<\/strong>. Below is everything to know about him, their marriage<\/a>, and more on Celine’s romantic future!<\/p>\n The 54-year-old musician was married to Rene for over two decades<\/a>, as they tied the knot in 1994! Not only was he her devoted life partner, but the late businessman was also her talent manager. About five years after they got married, Rene was sadly diagnosed with throat cancer<\/a>, as reported by\u00a0PEOPLE<\/em><\/a>. During that time, Celine even took a two-year hiatus from her singing career to focus on her hubby’s health. Sadly, Rene lost the battle to cancer on Jan. 14, 2016 and died after the duo had been married for 22 years.<\/p>\n Prior to his passing, Celine and Rene were madly in love<\/a> for many years. They were also famous for their 26-year-wide age gap between them. Rene met Celine when she was just 12 years old and brought him to tears when she auditioned for him, per\u00a0PEOPLE<\/em><\/a>. Interestingly, Rene was married to a woman named\u00a0Anne Ren\u00e9e<\/strong> from 1973 until they divorced<\/a> in 1985. Later, in her 2000 memoir\u00a0Celine Dion: My Story, My Dream<\/em>, the blonde beauty detailed the night she finally got to be with Rene. \u201cI threw myself into his arms,\u201d she wrote of a night after she won a TV singing competition in 1988. \u201cLater that night, I was seated at the head of the bed, legs folded under the covers. I was happy about being alone with the man I loved.”<\/p>\n By 2001, the duo welcomed their first son<\/a>, Ren\u00e9-Charles Ang\u00e9lil<\/strong>, 22, and would later welcome two more<\/a> including twins\u00a0Eddy\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Nelson<\/strong>, 11. In 2013, the mom-of-three spoke to\u00a0The Daily Mail<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>about being a mom with a full-time career. “But the only reward that would mean anything to me is my children. There\u2019s nothing that can top being a mother<\/a>. I would like more but I don\u2019t know if it could happen. I want the twins and me to have quality time,” she gushed at the time.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n A post shared by Ce\u0301line Dion (@celinedion)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n![\"celine](\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/celine-dion-with-her-husband-rene-ss-embed.jpg?resize=620%2C413\")
