Céline Dion's heart and love for René Angélil will continue to go on.
Almost
10 months after the death of her husband, "The Power of Love" singer
may be back performing in Las Vegas. But in between each and every sold-out
show, the proud mom is thinking about her partner.
"Before
he left, it was very, very difficult for all of us," Celine shared with
CBS News this weekend. "For me especially, and my children, to see the man
of my life die a little bit more every day. And when he left, it was kind of a
relief for me that the man that I love, the only man that I kissed, the only
man that I loved. Yeah. I never kissed another man in my life."
Celine
was just 12 years old when she was introduced to René by her mother. What started off as a professional
relationship—he served as Celine's manager—also turned romantic leading to a
lavish wedding in 1994. They were married for more than 20 years before René
passed away from throat cancer in January.
While
the grieving process continues, Celine has been able to return to the stage of
The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. In fact, she celebrated her 1,000 performance
at the venue Saturday evening.
"Back
in 2003, when I began performing in this newly built theatre, little did we
know we were going to reach such an incredible number of shows," Celine
said. "Thank you René who had this vision and shared the journey with me
and thank you to the four million fans who made this possible by choosing music
as their international language."
During
her open and honest chat with CBS News' Mo Rocca, Celine was also asked if she
hopes to fall in love again anytime in the future. Her answer may just surprise
some fans.
"Not
now. Unh-uh," she revealed. "I love. I love. I love him. I'm still in
love with him. And I have the love of my children. I have the love of my fans.
I love the people that I work with. So
my life is not empty of love."
