Celine Dion’s recent family outing was a chance to reunite with her twins Nelson and Eddy. And the latter are unrecognizable. Who is who ? We explain everything for you.
After about a year of silence and media absence, Celine Dion celebrated the comeback in Las Vegas that no one dared to dream of. And as the icing on the cake, she was even seen with her three children René-Charles (22). Twins Nelson and Eddy (13 years old).
You do not know which is which ? After an investigation, we have the answer.
Nelson and Eddy Dion: brothers so “different”
Became on October 23, 2010, mother for the second time – She was originally expecting triplets – Celine Dion gave birth to twins at St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Florida. Were then born Nelson (named as a tribute to the late South African President Nelson Mandela) and Eddie (named as a tribute to the late lyricist and author of several of his first hits, Eddy Marnay).
Two little boys who for several years sported the same long hair as the eldest… However, Nelson and Eddy, partially raised by their aunt Linda Dion, who lives with them in Las Vegas, have always been “completely different“to each other, as Celine Dion revealed in an interview with People. “If one of them likes to wear a certain T-shirt, the other wants a model who has nothing to do with it.” They are looking for their own individuality. It’s important for their emotional development,” said the My Heart Will Go On singer.
As adolescents, they have nothing to do physically
Celine Dion’s recent appearance during a hockey game at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas was the perfect opportunity to see Nelson and Eddy, who are now very grown up. And are transformed today. Nelson wears glasses, has round cheeks and a pronounced mustache. Conversely, Eddy does not appear to need glasses to correct his vision and has a narrower face.
It was Céline Dion – who still suffers from stiff syndrome – who gave some clues about the distinction in an interview at Gala after the baptism of her sons. “Eddy is the one who is most like me (…) Nelson inherited both his father’s physique and personality [le regretté René Angélil, ndlr]” she said at the time.
