great tragedies in her life

“My Heart Will Go On”: The verse above is from the biggest hit of her career Celine Dion It was to become the motto of her turbulent life. A life marked by great professional victories but also by many personal tragedies, which she herself tries each time to face with strength and dignity.

However, fate struck her again and she tested her strength again, As she revealed today, she’s been battling really hard lately with a rare neurological disorder, which is… Stiff man syndrome (Stiff Person Syndrome-SPS), due to which, on the orders of her doctors, she had to cancel her European tour planned for the summer of 2023, which included a major concert, on June 9 in Athens.









Clearly overwhelmed and unable to hold back her tears, the 54-year-old Canadian singer shared, through a video, the new jingle that rose recently. “You know, I’ve always been an open book and wasn’t ready to say anything before, but I’m ready now,” she said with an intense emotional charge evident in her look before revealing shortly after: “I’ve been recently diagnosed with a very rare neurological disorder called Man Syndrome.” rigorous and affects 1/1,000,000. While we are still learning about this rare condition, we now know that this is the cause of all the seizures I’ve been having. “Unfortunately, these spasms affect every aspect of my daily life, sometimes causing difficulty when walking and preventing me from using my vocal cords to sing like I used to.” She concluded her public personal confession by making a promise to the public and to herself, saying, “I’m doing everything I can to recover.” This wholesome new adventure added to the huge hurdles that the multi-award-winning artist had to overcome in the past, which has delivered her many international hits including the hits “All by Myself” and “That’s the Way It Is”, ” Just Walk Away”, “The Power Of Love”, “A New Day Has Come” and of course Titanic’s signature song “My Heart Will Go On”, which kicked off with a stunning performance that made it one of the most timeless ballads of all time.

However, behind this great career, glamour, money, awards and great live performances, there is a woman who can only be described as a “tragic heroine”. As the youngest of 14 children in her family, Céline, who takes her name from the French singer Hugo Offray’s song of the same name, had to fight battles from an early age. Even for the baby’s bed that was not left in the house of the large family, which led to her sleeping, for some time, inside a large staircase …!

Her teenage years were also difficult. Her tall figure and crooked teeth brought her into the sight of her classmates, who often called her an “eccentric”: “I hated school,” she revealed in her autobiography. Music was her only outlet. That’s why when the last bell rang, she ran away and went downstairs to her house to play music with her older brothers. In any case, her childhood and adolescence were combined with socializing with people older than her, which forced her to grow up ahead of her time. It is enough to think that when she was born her older sister was married and had a child!

In the context of her early adulthood, her early professional involvement in singing is included. She was just 12 years old when she composed and performed her first song, with her mother and brother who soon after sent her to the famous music producer and talent hunter. Renee Angel, the man who was supposed to become the heroine of young Celine’s life at the time. Even though he was 25 years her senior, she fell deeply in love with him from the first moment she saw him. A teenage crush that developed into an affair when she turned 20, despite initial strong disagreements among her family, was formalized with a glamorous wedding at the age of 25.

The difficult path of motherhood

Despite the fact that she found the love of her life while her career took off at the same time, Celine Dion found becoming a mother extremely difficult. But he did not give up. He did not give up on this big dream. After several miscarriages, she decided to undergo two gynecological operations in 2000 in order to be successful. The couple’s first child, René-Charles-Angel, finally came back into his life in January 2001 and in 2010 the couple welcomed twins, Eddie and Nelson. They seemed completely happy now. It won’t last long though.
