Despite the loss of her long-time spouse and the challenges of her illness, Céline has remained resilient with the support of her three sons: René-Charles and youngest twins, Nelson and Eddy Angélil, who are 13 years old. René-Charles is her eldest child and was born in January 2001. He has been in the public eye since infancy, always by his mother’s side. From being photographed as a baby and then as a teenager, to now being a young adult with a beard, here is René-Charles’s dramatic transformation that makes him look older than his age.

René-Charles was baptized at six months old in July 2001 in Montreal, Quebec. He was photographed with his parents leaving the chapel of the Notre-Dame Basilica. René-Charles Angélil, Celine Dion’s son, has grown significantly from a baby to a young man. He resembles his late father and appears older than his actual age, according to online users. His transformation includes sporting a beard and showing signs of balding. Celine Dion was married to René Angélil for 21 years before his sad passing in January 2016.

A representative announced that the music manager died at his Las Vegas home after a “long and courageous battle against cancer.” He was 73 years old. René left behind his five-time Grammy Award-winning wife, whom he married in December 1994, including the couple’s three children.

Years later, Celine revealed her own health struggles. In an emotional video shared on Instagram in December 2022, she disclosed her diagnosis of a rare neurological disorder called Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS). She announced the cancellation of her European tour due to her condition and expressed deep sadness over the decision.

At the time, the infant had a round face with soft, rosy cheeks and bright, curious eyes. His light brown hair was sparse and fine. He wore a simple, white baby outfit with delicate patterns. Held lovingly by his world-famous momin the next image, he looked curious and content, perfectly capturing a tender moment between mother and son.

During a family outing in March 2002 in New York City, René-Charles was pictured with his mom and dad again. He wore a cozy, navy blue coat with a matching hat, keeping him warm in the chilly weather. His parents stood proudly beside him, reflecting their happiness and unity as a family. By September 2002, during a casual day out in Paris, the couple’s first born at 20 months old, had grown further. His light brown hair was slightly longer, framing his face more fully and his features were more pronounced.
