Céline Dion Honors Late Husband René Angélil on Ninth Anniversary of His Death

The singer shared a heartfelt Instagram tribute and a rare family photo with her three sons to commemorate the occasion.

René Angélil, Céline Dion's husband and former manager, passed away from throat cancer in January 2016 at the age of 73.
Dion shared a touching Instagram post featuring a family photo with her three sons, René-Charles, 23, and twins Nelson and Eddy, 14, all dressed in coordinated cream outfits.
In her tribute, Dion described Angélil as her 'greatest champion' and expressed that his presence is still deeply felt by her and their children.
The couple, who married in 1994, had a long and celebrated partnership, with Angélil playing a pivotal role in launching Dion's music career by mortgaging his home to fund her debut album.
Dion continues to honor her late husband while navigating her own health challenges, including stiff-person syndrome, which has impacted her ability to perform in recent years.
