“She’s not actively looking for dates, but she’s agreed to let her friends set her up, and everyone in her life is excited,” an insider said to the outlet. “It won’t be long before [her twin boys Nelson and Eddy, 13, are] ready to fly the nest. They’ve made it clear they want to see Céline move forward and live for the future.”

The insider also added that this “is a huge step for her. She has so much love to give.”

For those who don’t know, Dion and her late husband Angélil originally met back in 1980, when she was 12 and he was 38. He became her manager; and when she was 18 and he was 44, they started their romance.

They went public with their relationship in 1993, and married in 1994. They welcomed three sons: René-Charles, born on Jan 25, 2001, and twin boys Nelson and Eddy, born on Oct 23, 2010.

They were together until his death in 2016.

“I’m still married to René. He’s still my husband. When we have to travel to my treatments to see my doctors, I always bring pictures [of him],” she said via People in 2024. “And we have pictures, of course, all over the place in the house.”
