Rene Angelil, the husband and former manager of superstar vocalist Celine Dion, has died aged 73, the singer has announced.
Still battling cancer, Angelil stepped down as Dion’s manager after 30 years in June 2014 to focus on his health.
Dion and Angelil had three children together – Rene-Charles, who was born in 2001 and twins Nelson and Eddy, who were born in 2010.
The couple were very sweet while attending the ceremony honoring her with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. “My family and my children and my husband are my life”, she said.
They got married in 1994.
According to CBC News, Rene had undergone cancer treatment in the last two decades.
She was just about to go on stage, but “I went back in my dressing room and I saw him looking pretty devastated, in shock, and I was like, ‘What’s going on?’ He said, ‘I have cancer again. It’s hard because life imposes things on you”. Dion has sold tens of millions of albums, and since she began a Angelil-orchestrated residency at the 4,300-seat Colosseum, she has performed more than 900 shows for more than 3.6 million people, accounting for Dollars 500 million-plus in ticket sales. “I understand. Talk to me about it.’ And Rene says to me, ‘I want to die in your arms.’ Ok, fine, I’ll be there, you’ll die in my arms”.
“We don’t know what the future holds”, she says, adding that Rene told her to be “back, strong, [to] do it, still share your passion”.
Dion and Angelil recently celebrated their 21st wedding anniversary.

“I need to consider that I am the best for him and at caring for him”. “The family requests that their privacy be respected at the moment; more details will be provided at a later time”, his rep said in a statement.
