Singing superstar Celine Dion speaks candidly to Radio 2 about her loves, her life and her greatest loss.
In a wide-ranging interview covering her love of Chanel (and shoulderpads), her ambitions to become a gymnast and setting up home in Las Vegas, Celine Dion spends two hours with Radio 2 listeners this Sunday, paying an emotional tribute to her late husband Rene Angeli, who died in 2016.
“I was very, very lucky,” the 51-year-old says. “He had given me strength.
“I feel I have been fulfilled with so much of his love that I could carry on alone with my children for the rest of my life.”
The singer – who said this week she is not ready to think dating again – admits she doesn’t think their marriage would have lasted 25 years if Rene, who she wed in 1981 and has two children with, hadn’t also been her manager.
