Given all that they went through together, it is clear that what they shared was true love. By the time they crossed that line into romance (after Eurovision), she was a consenting adult - 20 years old. She knew her heart and who she wanted. She loved him and he fell in love with her. Rene was free, Celine was free. And the love they shared survived 28 years - busy careers, children, his heart attack, his cancer, etc. Their relationship was far more real than many other celebrity romances ... and it lasted until they were parted by his death. RIP Rene.
There is no doubt in my mind that Celine was and is madly and irrevocably in love with her late husband. He is the only man she has ever known in that sense. Her grief is real and her love is as well. However if something is black it is black. If something is white it is white. The fact that Rene met a talented beautiful 12 year old aspiring singer with a voice of an angel and he did everything he could to turn a child into a multimillion dollar diva is still a fact. He groomed her in every way. And I do not doubt their story and that they did not become romantic partners until she was of age, it is still evident that she was his golden goose and he almost literally raised her to be perfect and his in every way. I know they built an empire and a family that seems to function normally. I can look past the grooming and the divorce and the children that are Celine’s age because it seems that Celine was happy and in love. This doesn’t take away from the ill intentions Rene had from the moment he met her.
I agree with you, love her music, but can’t denied that was a weird love history, she only new him is a man, never kissed another man, the father figured turned into a husband. I have respect for their story but this wasn’t right in my eyes, a grow married man with kids divorced the wife to be with a woman with almost the same age of his kids.
Personally, i dont think as an adult , having a close relationship with a 12 year old and watching them grow up i dont think i could fall in love with them like this, bit like raising a child it just doesn't sit well with me. How do you stop seeing them as a child and as an adult. Each to their own, they seemed very much in love bit i dont understand it

On paper, a relationship between a 45 year old man and a 19 year old who the man met when she was 12, sounds like grooming and strange but when you see them together and the complete adoration in Celine’s eyes, you know that her love for Rene is as pure as love itself.
I agree. On paper, it looks weird. She was 20 when Eurovision happened, when they shared their first kiss. They shared a real, genuine love and kudos to her for not letting ignorant opinions hold her back. She had a great marriage, 3 wonderful boys, and an amazing love story. She was married to the love of her life and lived a life of happiness. So many people never get that chance. He understood her, knew her. And she knew him. To her, he was the ONE. Her only. They shared an unconventional relationship to be sure (based on his being her manager when she first started), but it was based on love. And it was real. That's all that matters.
If other people do not love the way we do; it does not mean that their love is not true! Congratulation to Celine Dion to find and to live a true love because some of us will never, probably, experience that.
how many people do you know in your own personal private life that so DEARLY AND SINCERELY LOVE AND ADORE ONE ANOTHER THAT EVERYONE KNOWS IT AND NOTICES IT AND COMMENT ON IT? May you ever have and experience this precious gift.
it's been17 years since my companion moved on. thus far no replacement. think of companions like Steve Irwin and his wife Terry chances are she won't ever find another. Katie Couric is the exception to the rule. rarely do people who have MAJESTY ever repeat...Romeo and Juliet. IT'S rare and SINCERELY once in a lifetime. Celine was the youngest of 14 believe me she was mature beyond her years. Rene was worthy of her.
I'd like to believe the best about them and that Celine was not groomed, but I can't help but be suspicious. And I can't help but wonder what on earth her parents were thinking, letting their preteen/teenage daughter spend so much time alone with such an older man. But that's just my opinion. Have a wonderful day and God bless.
I want a man and husband like him: a man who know how to listen to a girl, a man who knows how to respect and treat a girl and a man who knows how to make a girl fall in love... ♥ that is how all men must be! RIP René Angélil, a great example of true manhoodCelina was so lucky
Lots of guys will do that if you are their meal ticket. He had quite a gambling problem. Lost millions. She just laughed it off cuz she had millions to spare. Of course he listened when she talked!
Funny how people comment their marriage and relationship etc. Celine said herself "I fell in love long before that" or something like that...meaning she had feelings for Rene when she was what? 16? 17? Why people treat Celine like she was an innocent angel from Heaven..pure and untouched etc etc. I'm pretty sure every young girl at some point has a crush on "adult" man? I remember when I was 17..I was madly in love with a man who was in his mid 40s at that time.
Yes excatly that's because youth and teenagers are airheaded and undeveloped yet. He took adventage of that instead of him being older and wiser should of cut it and not act upon his feelings. It's sick and twisted, he has child of same age as her..
Celine's mother did not approve of her dating Rene not just because of the 26 year age difference but also because Rene had already been married AND divorced TWICE and he already had 2 children, one of which is the same age as Celine. But Celine was old enough to date who she wanted and didn't care what people thought. Their love was genuine and their marriage was until death do us part. They had 3 boys together. At least her marriage was more normal than Anna Nicole Smith's marriage to that REALLY old man! To this day she does not regret being married to Rene. However, today she admits that if she saw any of her sons dating a woman that much older than them. She'd tell that woman, "Get your hands off my son!" Celine was young then and didn't understand why her mother couldn't be happy for her falling in love with a man and not caring about the age difference. But now that Celine is mother herself, she fully understands how her mother felt back then. As they say, there are certain things about your parents that you won't be able to understand until you have a child of your own.
Erica Awake I don’t believe that satanic statement of yours. Celine doesn’t show any sign that she was molested like how she perform on the stage, how she talk in public, how hard she work day by day as an artist and how she express love to all the people, and everyone knows she treasures her values. She is a genuine person, the evidence is clear to everything she does and if there was something wrong happening to her its going to be easy to notice.
You haters just don't know what it feels like to be completely, undeniably, unconditionally, and honestly in love with another person! Celine and Rene had the most loving relationship and friendship and respect for each other for their entire 21 year marriage, and it would've continued that way if Rene had not passed so unfortunately. They were so, so happy together, you could see it, hear it, listen to it, in every one of her songs. If she was by any means not ready to be in the relationship she would have left years ago, and it would have been evident that there was tensions, but of course, since they really were IN LOVE with each other completely unconditionally, no one ever doubted for a second that either of them could be with anyone else. I feel sorry for the people here who don't understand their love they had together. It is so clearly honest and true, that no matter where they were in the world, no matter their age difference, that they were meant to be together. They had a love I only dream of having, and if any of your haters out there ever had someone who loved you as much as Celine loved Rene, you'd probably never even realise it! You should count yourselves lucky to even witness such a bonding between two people that is Celine and Rene. Their love will last until the end of time, even if Rene has passed. I will be very, very surprised if Celine even ends up in another relationship with another man at all. No one could come close to how they were with each other. Love can be so, so strong sometimes that it makes you feel in ways that you just can't hide it, and want to scream it out to the world. You can't just simply say 'Oh, everyone else is going to hate the idea, so we'll just stop loving each other'. That's not how it works! When you love somebody so much, it is so, so hard to let it go, but when the other person loves you in return, then you know it's something to hold on to. My prayers go out to Celine and her family. It is just heartbreaking to know how much pain she must be feeling, losing the one man in her life that she was with every single day. This will be a hard time for her, but she will pull through! We are with you Celine x
+Stephanie Schuurmans "I will be very, very surprised if Celine even ends up in another relationship with another man at all" Off-course she will always remember Rene as someone who helped her kick start her career (he even mortgaged his house to fund one of her recordings) and a loving husband. But I tell you what time will pass and she will feel lonely and she is not even in the old people category, she knows children will grow. And it will not be hard for her to get someone for someone of her class, look at Mariah Carey. Celine is ok in terms of looks. But I admire her as well she is known because of her music not showing off unlike J Z Lil Wayne. She's got a lot as well but she is not known by being rich. Her music is timeless unlike todays Beyonce and Rihanna. She is above Jenet Jackson. She is very serious about her music she is talented. But I think she will get someone guys will come after her she won't be a widow for too long. What about Tom Cruise(joking)? A womanizer.
@@whoami5488 Well he was certainly old If you look at it realistically Most people wouldn’t be happy about their very young daughter dating a forty something year old married man who has known her since she’s a child think about it that’s what happened I’m not a disrespectful person it just infuriates me when people act like it’s a fairytale romance it wasn’t it was a much older man keeping this very young girl to himself and then marrying her He was her mentor since she was a child to me it’s the same thing as a coach training your child since their young and then start to date them 😒

Say you would!!! Say it! 🙄GTFOH
@@sjc4He didn't get involved with her until Celine was old enough. The two had a respectful, healthy and stable relationship from beginning to end. I wish all "predators" were like that.
it is what it is. I have lived a life with another human but he left because his sojourn was complete. I will carry him in my heart and soul here til we reunite. my family and friends didn't approve initially because they couldn't see past their own ideas. then they loved him because they came to know a wonderful human. they lived life. together.
I know the love lasted long and I don't doubt she loved him in her little teenager mind, then that turned into adult love followed with marriage & kids. In my opinion, I feel it was wrong for Rene to have waited for her and I know he waited. It was wrong for him to kiss her, using the professional relationship and as an adult man interested in a young person's mind and body. I look at my step son and shake my head cuz his 16 teenager mind thinks of only money and food. I can't understand why a big adult would be interested in anything a 17 year old would have to say. He cherished this marriage and loved her so much because he waited 5 years for it. She went a long with it for the rest of her life.
She knew she loved him and knew he loved her, deeply, but was too afraid to pursue it. So, she did instead. She took courage in hand and pursued him and their love.
Nothing wrong with Rene been much older, than Celine.You can see they loved each other. It is only a number.I am sure other people have a husband much older.
He no doubt divorced his first wife because he fell for a young teenager, one he knew was going to be extremely wealthy, at that. I just find it extremely creepy, along with that ostentatious wedding and funeral (both grander than British Monarchy ceremonies ))
I don't care how old she was when they fell in love or their age difference. I don't care if he groomed her since she was a kid. Forbidden romance is only frowned upon because we assume someone is being used and is bound to get hurt. This was clearly not the case here. What matters is that at the end of the day their love proved to be as true and as deep as any other "normal" relationship. It withstood the test of time, even with all the temptations of money and fame. They were a team in every sense until death did them apart, which to me is beautiful.
Well, although Celine does not regret being married to Rene, she has admitted that she would not want any of her sons being a relationship with a woman that much older than them.
@Axel Leroux Well, her mother didn't like the idea of her marrying him, not just because of the age difference but because he had already been married and divorced twice and already had kids, the oldest is the same age as Celine. Celine has admitted that now that she's a mother herself, she now has a better understanding of how her mother felt back then. They say there are certain things that you aren't able to understand until you have a child of your own.
I don't believe that for a minute. She said she was in love with him Long before that. She was groomed. She was molested basically. Like Patty Hurst, she just fell in line. She never knew any different. He fixed her teeth, paid attention to her, told her she was pretty, then he divorced his wife, waited until she was old enough that society would not demand he go to prison, then announced it to the world. She never had a chance.
“Grooming” is everyone’s favorite word nowadays. To be honest, Celine Dion, for being in Hollywood since such a young age turned out pretty dang good. If anything her love for him, and his respect and care for her may have been what kept her from ending up like the rest of the people in Hollywood. If you want to use the word “grooming”, he “groomed” her for being nothing more than an outstanding woman that has uplifted and inspired hundreds of thousands of people for years and years to come.
Finally someone with common sense. I swear these youngsters and ignorant people on RUclips are atrocious. I mean Celine was already an aunt when she was an hour old. It would've happened, her marrying older guy. Everyone is older than her by almost a decade.
I think so as well. Her parent’s were still happily married, she grew up poor but with a lot of love and mutual respect for each other in her family home - she’s not your typical „daddy issues“ kind of gal who was looking for somebody to father her. She was looking for a partner! And the fact that she found him so young must have been a blessing because who else would know her better? Getting to know and truly love the person - not the projection in our heads - takes years. And you can tell by the way she talks about him and their interactions, how in sync they were. How much they adored and respect each other long before they became a couple. Also: the first love is a magical thing. Nobody compares. I remember falling in love when I was 16 and sadly it was not meant to be but oh… it took a decade for me to „fall out of love“. How amazing it must be to be able to allow yourself to just fall deeper and deeper into this state of the ultimate union and share all aspects of life with your partner… I can’t even phantom the pure bliss but we can see it in her eyes. ❤ They had something very rare and made the most of it. And to have somebody like René by your side - who’s only got eyes for you and stands by you no matter what - is what held her together through the years. It was them against the world.
@@bsbncandey whenever someone hears a 45 year old man falling in love with a 19 year old girl They're immediately turned off by it but when it's a 45 year old woman falling in love with a 19 year old boy people for some reason are not turned off by it.

@@Ninitschgadoesn’t matter. He should’ve never accepted her advances or Madge a move and allow her to find and experience another first love with someone age appropriate. 😊
He Groomed her from a small child. She was 12 when they met. Lovers when she was 19.(at eurovision) Yes she WAS happy, marriage / children. BUT knew nothing else!...
My husband-to-be is much older than me- he is 56 almost 57- he will be in October, I am almost 26- my birthday is later this month, age is just a number- what truly matters is that you love each other deep down and are meant to be together forever!!!
My husband is 26 years older than me. He was 53 when we married, and I was 26. We were in love, and have had a wonderful marriage. We will celebrate our 22nd anniversary February 18th,2020.
Most kids normally don't fall in love at all that age, especially not with adults who generally think of them as their children. And even if those adults do develop feelings for someone under the age of 18, they don't act on those feelings due to shame and disgust. And fear of going to prison.
I don't think I would be interested in a 26 year gap. It's kind of gross. However, obviously they were truly in love because they had a happy marriage and she stood by him until he passed. Celine Dion is a class act all the way. I am so impressed with her manner and the absolute grace and poise she showed through her husband's passing. God bless her.
Me and my boyfriend have a 32 year age gap, and I couldn't be happier. Never met anyone like him, don't think I ever will. I was 19 when we met, he was 51.
@@esmejay2913 l think it was that it seems a kin to "grooming". She was 12 when she started to fall for him. Idolised him. He didn't stop it either 🤷♀️.
Sanitizing a relationship that started off wrong doesn't make it right. She said she was in love a long time before he kissed her at 17?? SMH. Those who support a relationship that started like theirs are sick people. Sad.

38 apparently. I'm a huge fan of Céline and will see her in 2020 in Dublin, her personal life is her business, but it never sat well with me. Especially now that l have a little girl. I understand why Célines mother was so upset.
Don't know why, but I never liked him. It's nothing to do with me at all, but there's something I couldn't take to and I couldn't tell you why. Maybe it's that he's a heavy gambler and I can't stand those.
I hate people commenting here. Seriously. You are horrible people. He was no pedophile, for fuck's sake! It's not like anything happened between them before she was already a woman! And btw, their life together is proof that this was TRUE LOVE that almost doesn't happen these days
@@PriscillaB2015_ "because I don't do what's right, I'm going to project it onto everyone else" 🥰 To pry into a relationship of strangers and claim you know it better than they themselves is wild
He was definitely the great force behind her career. I feel Celine was infatuated with him as a little girl, I don't know on his part I hope not, but I think once she was 18 she knew she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him.
He was her manager and he worked very close with her. He is too old for her. She sings about love and she marries someone who has the age of her dad. Strange!!.
It's not creepy when the love has lasted beyond his death. If it was creepy no doubt a strong women like Celine would have come out as an adult and say so. She loves him no matter the age.
+Constantine Joseph You have to remember he was purely her manager when she was 12 and it was only until she was an adult that she started to develop feelings for him I understand where your coming from the age gap is quite huge but as long as they are both adults and are content and happy there's nothing wrong with it. Love has no age limit
Sorry for Celine Dion and her family, but I'm glad he is gone. It was always weird even if nothing happened when she was underage, but just the dynamics of their relationship is not really comfortable to sit with. It was love for sure even after his death for Celine and her family but for his part creepy and just wrong in my eyes.
of course the "love bomber" will make you feel love if he can see you got a multi million dollar golden voice. "love bombers" are investors. Her net worth is $800 million and since he was a twice married man. Between his six children from at least 2 other different women, sure he has a lot of time to love celine. He loved her so much that she became infertile even when their relationship started at 12 years old. No inheritance conflict when you're infertile. Narc abused women are also prone to suffer infertility.
Gosh it's like falling in love with your pp abuser and not even realising it cause you've been groomed for sooo long And shame to her fans who don't see it for what it is calling it a true love fairytale, yeah alright wierdos

Yes excatly that's because youth and teenagers are airheaded and undeveloped yet. He took adventage of that instead of him being older and wiser should of cut it and not act upon his feelings. It's sick and twisted, he has child of same age as her..

Moste of us can only dream about love like that
☕☕🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔ME NOOOOO
So you want to be groomed by a 40 year old man ?
@@SoSo-rf5pk Do you even know what being groomed means?
Celine's mother did not approve of her dating Rene not just because of the 26 year age difference but also because Rene had already been married AND divorced TWICE and he already had 2 children, one of which is the same age as Celine. But Celine was old enough to date who she wanted and didn't care what people thought. Their love was genuine and their marriage was until death do us part. They had 3 boys together. At least her marriage was more normal than Anna Nicole Smith's marriage to that REALLY old man! To this day she does not regret being married to Rene. However, today she admits that if she saw any of her sons dating a woman that much older than them. She'd tell that woman, "Get your hands off my son!" Celine was young then and didn't understand why her mother couldn't be happy for her falling in love with a man and not caring about the age difference. But now that Celine is mother herself, she fully understands how her mother felt back then. As they say, there are certain things about your parents that you won't be able to understand until you have a child of your own.
the greatest n strongest love story ever
i agree
Her heart still goes on, so you know.
Erica Awake I don’t believe that satanic statement of yours. Celine doesn’t show any sign that she was molested like how she perform on the stage, how she talk in public, how hard she work day by day as an artist and how she express love to all the people, and everyone knows she treasures her values. She is a genuine person, the evidence is clear to everything she does and if there was something wrong happening to her its going to be easy to notice.
@robertbaisa6109 so it's okay to groom a 12 year old as long as they don't show any signs of abuse?
Какие же умные, тёплые, любящие глаза у мужа Селин!
I miss Lary King, he was so good at interviewing people - May he rest in peace ❤
0:07 lol I love Celine
You haters just don't know what it feels like to be completely, undeniably, unconditionally, and honestly in love with another person! Celine and Rene had the most loving relationship and friendship and respect for each other for their entire 21 year marriage, and it would've continued that way if Rene had not passed so unfortunately. They were so, so happy together, you could see it, hear it, listen to it, in every one of her songs. If she was by any means not ready to be in the relationship she would have left years ago, and it would have been evident that there was tensions, but of course, since they really were IN LOVE with each other completely unconditionally, no one ever doubted for a second that either of them could be with anyone else. I feel sorry for the people here who don't understand their love they had together. It is so clearly honest and true, that no matter where they were in the world, no matter their age difference, that they were meant to be together. They had a love I only dream of having, and if any of your haters out there ever had someone who loved you as much as Celine loved Rene, you'd probably never even realise it! You should count yourselves lucky to even witness such a bonding between two people that is Celine and Rene. Their love will last until the end of time, even if Rene has passed. I will be very, very surprised if Celine even ends up in another relationship with another man at all. No one could come close to how they were with each other. Love can be so, so strong sometimes that it makes you feel in ways that you just can't hide it, and want to scream it out to the world. You can't just simply say 'Oh, everyone else is going to hate the idea, so we'll just stop loving each other'. That's not how it works! When you love somebody so much, it is so, so hard to let it go, but when the other person loves you in return, then you know it's something to hold on to. My prayers go out to Celine and her family. It is just heartbreaking to know how much pain she must be feeling, losing the one man in her life that she was with every single day. This will be a hard time for her, but she will pull through! We are with you Celine x
+Stephanie Schuurmans "I will be very, very surprised if Celine even ends up in another relationship with another man at all"
Off-course she will always remember Rene as someone who helped her kick start her career (he even mortgaged his house to fund one of her recordings) and a loving husband. But I tell you what time will pass and she will feel lonely and she is not even in the old people category, she knows children will grow. And it will not be hard for her to get someone for someone of her class, look at Mariah Carey. Celine is ok in terms of looks. But I admire her as well she is known because of her music not showing off unlike J Z Lil Wayne. She's got a lot as well but she is not known by being rich. Her music is timeless unlike todays Beyonce and Rihanna. She is above Jenet Jackson. She is very serious about her music she is talented. But I think she will get someone guys will come after her she won't be a widow for too long. What about Tom Cruise(joking)? A womanizer.
the court system in America would not agree about that deep love

@@heatherbrand2476 you’re very disrespectful smh, called a deceased person an “old fart”, go learn more

Well groomed.
No she fell in love with him first! You know nothing about love.

Go ahead…explain it thoroughly….because you’ll sound like a damn pedophile 🙄 He waited until she was almost an adult then got his divorce conveniently at this time….
Listen you can call it love if you want but it also meets the criteria for grooming as well. Also, not sure you’d be ok with YOUR daughter being groomed by an 45 year old married man?? Say you would!!! Say it! 🙄GTFOH
@@MakaylaTaylorMusic you deserve better. do better. this man was a predator.
@@sjc4He didn't get involved with her until Celine was old enough. The two had a respectful, healthy and stable relationship from beginning to end. I wish all "predators" were like that.
@@sjc4 He refused her advances for several years because she was too young...then he fell in love and they started dating when she was 20.
Perfeitos! Amor lindo e verdadeiro. Céline e René forever!
it is what it is. I have lived a life with another human but he left because his sojourn was complete. I will carry him in my heart and soul here til we reunite. my family and friends didn't approve initially because they couldn't see past their own ideas. then they loved him because they came to know a wonderful human. they lived life. together.
Their love story is so beautiful❤
Nah it’s creepy asf and I will never understand all the people who call it beautiful that an old man groomed a 12 year old
@@DosYeobosthat’s because he never groomed her.
I know the love lasted long and I don't doubt she loved him in her little teenager mind, then that turned into adult love followed with marriage & kids. In my opinion, I feel it was wrong for Rene to have waited for her and I know he waited. It was wrong for him to kiss her, using the professional relationship and as an adult man interested in a young person's mind and body. I look at my step son and shake my head cuz his 16 teenager mind thinks of only money and food. I can't understand why a big adult would be interested in anything a 17 year old would have to say. He cherished this marriage and loved her so much because he waited 5 years for it. She went a long with it for the rest of her life.
She knew she loved him and knew he loved her, deeply, but was too afraid to pursue it. So, she did instead. She took courage in hand and pursued him and their love.
That's Call Faith Love ❤. Purely from Soul to Soul connection!. So.. Beautiful 🤗💯❤🥳🎊
They lived a beautiful love story!
Nothing wrong with Rene been much older, than Celine.You can see they loved each other.
It is only a number.I am sure other people have a husband much older.
He no doubt divorced his first wife because he fell for a young teenager, one he knew was going to be extremely wealthy, at that. I just find it extremely creepy, along with that ostentatious wedding and funeral (both grander than British Monarchy ceremonies ))
He was married and divorced twice and had children from both wives. I thibk he is a creepy man.
I don't care how old she was when they fell in love or their age difference. I don't care if he groomed her since she was a kid. Forbidden romance is only frowned upon because we assume someone is being used and is bound to get hurt. This was clearly not the case here. What matters is that at the end of the day their love proved to be as true and as deep as any other "normal" relationship. It withstood the test of time, even with all the temptations of money and fame. They were a team in every sense until death did them apart, which to me is beautiful.
Well said ricky!
Well, although Celine does not regret being married to Rene, she has admitted that she would not want any of her sons being a relationship with a woman that much older than them.
@Axel Leroux Well, her mother didn't like the idea of her marrying him, not just because of the age difference but because he had already been married and divorced twice and already had kids, the oldest is the same age as Celine. Celine has admitted that now that she's a mother herself, she now has a better understanding of how her mother felt back then. They say there are certain things that you aren't able to understand until you have a child of your own.
This is a sick way of thinking. You need to be put in prison.
grow up people. They werent together romantically until Celine was 19.
+bukkake funions Bro you got no chill gudamn, cheers where you are. I'm drinking a wine for your dirty ass mouth comment.
Michael Bodnar not true
I don't believe that for a minute. She said she was in love with him Long before that. She was groomed. She was molested basically. Like Patty Hurst, she just fell in line. She never knew any different. He fixed her teeth, paid attention to her, told her she was pretty, then he divorced his wife, waited until she was old enough that society would not demand he go to prison, then announced it to the world. She never had a chance.
linda cull - you have a sick mind.
@@lindacull1711 so true. I believe it
Wow Rene angelil is very sweet to Celine Dion I admire him so much he’s really in love with Celine.
“Grooming” is everyone’s favorite word nowadays. To be honest, Celine Dion, for being in Hollywood since such a young age turned out pretty dang good. If anything her love for him, and his respect and care for her may have been what kept her from ending up like the rest of the people in Hollywood. If you want to use the word “grooming”, he “groomed” her for being nothing more than an outstanding woman that has uplifted and inspired hundreds of thousands of people for years and years to come.
Finally someone with common sense. I swear these youngsters and ignorant people on RUclips are atrocious. I mean Celine was already an aunt when she was an hour old. It would've happened, her marrying older guy. Everyone is older than her by almost a decade.
I think so as well. Her parent’s were still happily married, she grew up poor but with a lot of love and mutual respect for each other in her family home - she’s not your typical „daddy issues“ kind of gal who was looking for somebody to father her. She was looking for a partner! And the fact that she found him so young must have been a blessing because who else would know her better? Getting to know and truly love the person - not the projection in our heads - takes years. And you can tell by the way she talks about him and their interactions, how in sync they were. How much they adored and respect each other long before they became a couple.
Also: the first love is a magical thing. Nobody compares. I remember falling in love when I was 16 and sadly it was not meant to be but oh… it took a decade for me to „fall out of love“. How amazing it must be to be able to allow yourself to just fall deeper and deeper into this state of the ultimate union and share all aspects of life with your partner… I can’t even phantom the pure bliss but we can see it in her eyes. ❤ They had something very rare and made the most of it.
And to have somebody like René by your side - who’s only got eyes for you and stands by you no matter what - is what held her together through the years. It was them against the world.
@@bsbncandey whenever someone hears a 45 year old man falling in love with a 19 year old girl They're immediately turned off by it but when it's a 45 year old woman falling in love with a 19 year old boy people for some reason are not turned off by it.
Nah y’all are the messed up ones for thinking that’s normal, I’m sure you would be thrilled for your daughter to marry the old man who was a father figure in her life from 12 years old…
@@Ninitschgadoesn’t matter. He should’ve never accepted her advances or Madge a move and allow her to find and experience another first love with someone age appropriate. 😊

My husband-to-be is much older than me- he is 56 almost 57- he will be in October, I am almost 26- my birthday is later this month, age is just a number- what truly matters is that you love each other deep down and are meant to be together forever!!!
My husband is 26 years older than me. He was 53 when we married, and I was 26. We were in love, and have had a wonderful marriage. We will celebrate our 22nd anniversary February 18th,2020.

were you 12 when you first met your husband?

O amor é lindo... Muitos perdem esta oportunidade de ouro de viver o melhor com à mulher amada, com quem você casou por amor. Viva o ❤ !
She was in love with him since she was a child. It wasnt robbing the cradle. She was always in love.
Most kids normally don't fall in love at all that age, especially not with adults who generally think of them as their children. And even if those adults do develop feelings for someone under the age of 18, they don't act on those feelings due to shame and disgust. And fear of going to prison.
So many rules when it comes to love....too hard for me..but congrats to these two cause they made it together.
Still Love This Story ❤️
Céline was exceptional, loved this man badly actually that love killed her too after his death. May both RIP
Such a beautiful love story. I never get tired of watching.
Great love story with a big age difference, broke her when he died.😢

True love this is so sad to he's a gone he's her soal mate and she his. R. I. P. 😇💏
I don't think I would be interested in a 26 year gap. It's kind of gross. However, obviously they were truly in love because they had a happy marriage and she stood by him until he passed. Celine Dion is a class act all the way. I am so impressed with her manner and the absolute grace and poise she showed through her husband's passing. God bless her.

Sanitizing a relationship that started off wrong doesn't make it right. She said she was in love a long time before he kissed her at 17?? SMH. Those who support a relationship that started like theirs are sick people. Sad.
She was 19 when they kissed. They weren't romantic before then.

Celine was in love with him had her family. Now Sick and Broken..
They obviously love each other and all but think about this what if she was your daughter or son how would you feel?
Their age gap is 25 years and they didn’t care anything bout age height or anything that’s true love.😍
The perfect couple 😍
He was still..great for her..
she could have done much worse tbh
*He met her when she was 12..he was like 45*
38 apparently. I'm a huge fan of Céline and will see her in 2020 in Dublin, her personal life is her business, but it never sat well with me. Especially now that l have a little girl. I understand why Célines mother was so upset.
Not y’all tryna normalizing & JUSTIFY grooming young girls …
Don't know why, but I never liked him. It's nothing to do with me at all, but there's something I couldn't take to and I couldn't tell you why.
Maybe it's that he's a heavy gambler and I can't stand those.
I hate people commenting here. Seriously. You are horrible people. He was no pedophile, for fuck's sake! It's not like anything happened between them before she was already a woman! And btw, their life together is proof that this was TRUE LOVE that almost doesn't happen these days
Sure…I’m sure this man waited till she was “legal”. Because human beings always do what’s right…☺️

Correction, how he groomed her and made her think she was in love.
A beautiful couple
They always held hands during interviews. They probably did it here as well.
i think he was creepy and i would have felt like her mother felt. uugh
He was definitely the great force behind her career.
I feel Celine was infatuated with him as a little girl, I don't know on his part I hope not,
but I think once she was 18 she knew she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him.
She fell in love at what when he was what? Yeah they look great together.why did he get divorced ?
❤️❤️❤️🙏
He was her manager and he worked very close with her. He is too old for her. She sings about love and she marries someone who has the age of her dad. Strange!!.
+strong foot : it's her choice. besides, she fell in love with him.
Jay B : She is gorgeous....why not me?. I am jealous....damn....:D.

Her dad was alot older than Rene.
It's not creepy when the love has lasted beyond his death. If it was creepy no doubt a strong women like Celine would have come out as an adult and say so. She loves him no matter the age.
That's not how that works.
People don't do this unless your not gonna have kids now he's dead and kids are fatherless before 18
Wonder how they both would feel if they had a daughter and she did the same thing.
Well I feel for Celine but to be honest. 26 years is a big gulf. 10-15 years is max to be honest
+Constantine Joseph there is no formula. Age doesnt always matter...
Yeah but farming from age 13? Sorry that's weirdo level
+Constantine Joseph You have to remember he was purely her manager when she was 12 and it was only until she was an adult that she started to develop feelings for him I understand where your coming from the age gap is quite huge but as long as they are both adults and are content and happy there's nothing wrong with it. Love has no age limit
I think the fact is he is rich and her collaborator. If he wasn't rich, not a snowball's chance in hell
@@ConstantineJoseph not necessarily, catherine zeta jones, michael Douglas have a 26 yr gap
He was 26 and her 12 ..If they wasn't famous anyone else would say he groomed her ,
Sorry for Celine Dion and her family, but I'm glad he is gone. It was always weird even if nothing happened when she was underage, but just the dynamics of their relationship is not really comfortable to sit with. It was love for sure even after his death for Celine and her family but for his part creepy and just wrong in my eyes.
Ohhhhhhhh my God that day in Dublin
Yeah, it didn't start at 19
Mary mclean the pray is my favorite
celine is avery plain jane good luck to them a happy marriage
Nothing plain about her.
of course the "love bomber" will make you feel love if he can see you got a multi million dollar golden voice. "love bombers" are investors. Her net worth is $800 million and since he was a twice married man. Between his six children from at least 2 other different women, sure he has a lot of time to love celine. He loved her so much that she became infertile even when their relationship started at 12 years old. No inheritance conflict when you're infertile. Narc abused women are also prone to suffer infertility.
Yeah…. No. Your comment is untrue
Gosh it's like falling in love with your pp abuser and not even realising it cause you've been groomed for sooo long
