Celine is also yet to have posted in honour of Eddy and Nelson's milestone, but last year, she took to Instagram with a photo of the two boys as children and wrote: "Nelson and Eddy, you have been bringing so much joy, love and laughter into our lives every single day for 10 years. You make me, your big brother and your dad, who is for sure watching over you, so very proud. Happy birthday boys! We love you so very much – Mom, RC and Dad xx."

"My partners at Resorts World Las Vegas and AEG have been working around the clock to get this brand-new state-of-the-art theatre ready, and it's absolutely beautiful.

"I feel so bad that I'm letting them down, and I'm especially sorry for disappointing all the fans who've been making their plans to come to Las Vegas.

"Now, I have to focus on getting better… I want to get through this as soon as I can. - Celine xx…," she concluded.
