Grammy winning singer Celine Dion is not pregnant after all. It was reported in August that Dion, who is married to Rene Angelil, was pregnant with the couple’s second child. Dion and Angelil have an eight year old son, Rene-Charles. This Wednesday however it was revealed that Dion was not pregnant after all.

Dion, 41, and Angelil, 67, were married on December 17, 1994. On January 25, 2001 the couple’s first son, Rene-Charles, was born. The couple’s son was conceived through in vitro fertilization in 2000 and in August Dion underwent the in vitro fertilization procedure in a New York clinic. At the time Dion’s representatives confirmed the news that Dion had undergone the procedure and was pregnant. Within a few days however the couple learned that the in vitro process was unsuccessful and did not report Dion’s condition as they desired to keep it private.

The news of the failed implantation was announced Wednesday in the French language newspaper Le Journal de Montreal. Angelil was interviewed by the paper, and confirmed that the in vitro process had failed. Angelil said the couple did not announce the results immediately because they were hopeful another attempt would work. While the couple is disappointed at the results, Angelil told the paper that the couple is grateful for the child they already have and remain determined to have more children.
