On what would have been her late mother’s birthday, music icon Celine Dion opened her heart to fans in a deeply emotional tribute shared on Instagram.
On the evening of March 20, the Canadian superstar posted a heartfelt message alongside a touching photo of her and her mother, Thérèse Dion, who passed away in 2020. In her post, Dion reflected on how a recent conversation with her eldest son, René-Charles, stirred powerful memories of the woman she calls “Maman.”
“As I was having a conversation with René Charles tonight, you entered our thoughts,” Dion wrote. “We reminisced about the loving memories we hold of you. I realized these are the moments of motherhood.”
Thérèse Dion, affectionately known to the public as “Maman Dion,” was a beloved television personality, philanthropist, and matriarch of the Dion family. Her impact on Celine’s life and career has been immeasurable, with the singer often crediting her mother’s strength, guidance, and love for shaping who she is today.
“Mom, I just want you to know we love you so much and we miss you,” Dion continued. “From a conversation, to a recipe, to a story about you, there is not a day that you are not a part of us. Happy birthday, Maman…”
Celine signed the tribute with love from herself and her three sons: René-Charles, and twins Nelson and Eddy, writing, “– Celine, RC, Nelson, and Eddy xx…”
The post has since drawn an outpouring of support from fans around the world, many of whom shared their own stories of loss and gratitude for Dion’s vulnerability. It’s a poignant reminder that even amid global fame, Celine Dion’s heart beats first as a daughter, a mother, and a woman navigating grief with grace.
