Celine Dion shared a heartfelt tribute to her late husband, René Angélil, on what would have been their 30th wedding anniversary. Posting a black-and-white photo from their 1994 wedding, Dion expressed her enduring love and loss, writing, “You still fill our hearts, every day. You are everything to us. We miss you so much. Happy 30th anniversary, mon amour!”
The photo captured a tender moment between the couple on their wedding day at Montreal’s Notre-Dame Basilica. In the image, Dion, wearing an ornate, bejeweled headpiece attached to her veil, gazes deeply into Angélil’s eyes, her hands gently holding his face. The post was signed by Dion and the couple’s three children, René-Charles, 23, and 14-year-old twins, Nelson and Eddy.
René Angélil was a pivotal figure in Dion’s life and career. Their love story began when Dion, just 12 years old, auditioned for Angélil, who mortgaged his house to fund her first record. Years later, their relationship blossomed, leading to their iconic wedding in 1994, which was broadcast live across Canada.
Angélil passed away in 2016 after battling throat cancer, leaving behind a legacy that extends beyond his role as Dion’s manager and husband. On this anniversary, Dion’s tribute is a poignant reminder of their enduring bond and the profound impact he continues to have on her life.
