“René Angélil, 73, passed away this morning at
his home in Las Vegas after a long and courageous battle against
cancer,” according to a post on Céline Dion’s website.
“The family requests that their privacy be respected at the moment;
more details will be provided at a later time,” the post read.
Angélil, Dion’s longtime collaborator, stepped aside as his wife’s
manager in June 2014 because of his battle with throat cancer. That
August, Dion put her career on a temporary hold to help him fight the
disease.
Angélil is survived by his wife and the couple’s three children,
René-Charles, 14, and 5-year-old twins Nelson and Eddy — and his adult
children from a previous relationship, Anne-Marie, Jean-Pierre and
Patrick.
