What happened was Angelil told a Montreal newspaper that Celine had a miscarriage and that the in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment was unsuccessful. In spite of this he said that the singer was continuing to remain committed to having another child and is not discouraged by the recent setbacks..Signaling that he believes it will only be a matter of time until the procedure will work on Celine.

Clearly both Dion and Angelil have faced a setback in their attempts to conceive. However, it is obvious that they will continue trying, at some point it will only be a matter of time until the diva is pregnant once again. This procedure has worked for them in the past and it will work again.

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.
