Celebrities Who Are Parents To Twins Or Multiples

Missing Papa

After struggling to conceive through In Vitro Fertilization, singer Celine Dion gave birth to fraternal twin boys, Nelson and Eddy, at the age of 42. Nelson was named after Nelson Mandela, and Eddy was names after Eddy Marnay, a lyricist who worked on five of Celine’s French language albums.

In 2016, Celine’s husband and the boys’ father, René Angélil, died after falling out of bed, leaving the boys fatherless. Celine says she and the boys sleep together every night to help ease the loneliness of his loss. “We have a little ritual where we say goodnight to him with a little picture,” says Dion.
