Celine Dion & René Angélil

Singer-songwriter Celine Dion was just rising to prominence when she first met the love of her life René Angélil when she was only 12 years old. Thanks to Celine’s brothers, who sent René an audition tape of her singing, he eventually became her manager. Their relationship grew deeper as the years went by. René was already 46 and Celine was only 18 when they started going out. By the time she was 26 years old, the two finally tied the knot on December 17, 1994. The ceremony took place at Montreal’s Notre-Dame Basilica, even going to the extent of arranging a live broadcast of the event on Canadian television, making it one of the most extravagant celebrity weddings of all time.

They used to be one of the strongest couples in Hollywood, until René’s unfortunate passing in 2016. For 22 years, Celine stood by her husband until he passed away on January 14, 2016. Fortunately, one of the greatest things their love was able to give this world was their children, René-Charles, Nelson, and Eddy. As of 2020, they have a combined net worth of $855 million. Their kids must be enjoying numerous property investments the family owns.
