Her Secret Dad
Celine talks a lot about her mom in interviews, but what about her dad? He was Adhemar Dion, and he died in 2001. She said, “My dad was and is still my number one fan since I was a very little girl. I know that my dad would want me to be here tonight on stage with everyone I love, doing what we love.”
She Prepared her Kids for Death
She dealt with one other big challenge with the death of Rene. She had to talk to her children about it and guide them through this. Looking back, she said, “I’m proud of the way I prepared my boys for their dad’s death. In life, you never know what’s going to happen, so you should never wait for tomorrow to do what can be done today, to say I love you, or send a thank-you note…The future is now.”
