It's been over a year since her beloved husband René Angélil passed away, and in a new interview Celine Dion has confessed she has no plans to move on with another man. The 49-year-old said goodbye to her partner in January 2016 after he lost his three-year battle with throat cancer. "I am definitely in love with [René], married to him," she told The Sun's Dan Wootton. "He's the love of my life. It's very difficult for me to see myself with another person. The love that I have for him, I live it every day.'"

We always said that we were - when I was very, very young, - 50/50. He was very, very kind and I feel extremely fortunate that I had him as a husband and that he gave me three magnificent children and I see him through them every day, every day. But René will never, ever leave me.
