Céline Dion is paying tribute to her late husband, René Angélil, on the day that would have marked their 30th wedding anniversary.
Angélil died from throat cancer on Jan. 14, 2016, just two days shy of his 74th birthday.
Taking to Instagram, Dion, 56, remembered Angélil with a photo from their 1994 wedding.
"You still fill our hearts, every day. You are everything for us. We miss you so much. Happy 30th anniversary, mon amour," she captioned the post, signing it from herself and the couple's three children: René-Charles, 23, and 14-year-old twins, Nelson and Eddy.
The pair first met in 1980 when a 12-year-old Dion auditioned by singing for Angélil. After that meeting, he took on the role of her manager, and their professional collaboration continued for seven years. It wasn't until 1987, when Dion was 19, that their relationship turned romantic. At first, Dion chose to keep their romance hidden, worried about how the public might react.
"I was afraid of what people would think," she told People in 1994. Eventually, she wanted to share her love for Angélil with the world. "When you're in love, you want to scream it to the world."
It was only after they were engaged for a couple of years that they decided to make their relationship public.
"When I was at the age to be able to say to people [that we were together] … It was like bang! Love! Love always wins," Dion wrote in her memoir.
The pair got married Dec. 17, 1994, at Montréal's Notre-Dame Basilica. Four years later, Angélil was diagnosed with throat cancer. In 2000, he was declared cancer-free, but it returned in 2014, two years before his death.
Dion, who revealed her stiff-person syndrome diagnosis in December 2022, explained to People that she "always brings pictures" of Angélil whenever she travels for her treatments.
"And we have pictures, of course, all over the place in the house," she said.
"I'm still married to René. He's still my husband. He will always be."
