Céline Dion Talks About Losing Her Husband

After losing her husband René Angélil to a decades-long battle with cancer, Céline Dion has done well to recover from the hurting incident.

"You know what, I'm 48 years old and I lost the love of my life. I miss him a lot from when he was great but not when he was suffering," she candidly said to during an interview with People. "I cannot be selfish. You have to let people go. I feel at peace."
