Celine Dion has been bravely battling Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) since her diagnosis in 2022, and her life has changed in many ways as a result.
The My Heart Will Go On hitmaker has stayed positive throughout, and on March 19, she took to Instagram to share a joyful update with her fans.
The award-winning singer posted footage of herself dancing while playing golf with her three sons, René-Charles, Eddy and Nelson.
Dressed in a monochrome outfit and bucket hat, the star was all smiles as she pranced around the grounds.
In the caption, she wrote: "I had a beautiful day with my boys out on the course…. Getting back into the swing of things!! Celine x."

"So happy to see you like this," one wrote, alongside a love heart emoji, while another commented: "Great to see you back on the golf course!" A third remarked: "Seeing your smile and energy is pure joy! This moment with your children is so heartwarming. And that Freddie Mercury impression? Iconic."

She said: "This last couple of years has been such a challenge for me, the journey from discovering my condition to learning how to live with and manage it, but not to let it define me.

During this absence, I decided I wanted to document this part of my life, to try to raise awareness of this little-known condition, and to help others who share this diagnosis."
She also opened up about her decision to go public with her health diagnosis after initially dealing with it in private during an interview in 2024 with the Today Show.
Talking to Hoda Kotb, she said: "I could not do this [lie] anymore. What do you want me to say? We did not know what was going on. I did not take the time. I should have stopped. Take the time to figure it out."

"I had to raise my kids. I had to hide. I had to try to be a hero [while] feeling my body leaving me, holding on to my own dreams," Celine told Hoda.
"And lying [to my fans], for me, the burden was too much. Lying to the people who got me to where I am today, I could not do it anymore." Celine's sons have been a great strength during her illness and featured heavily in her documentary.
