Dion disclosed to fans in 2022 that she had been diagnosed with an extremely rare disorder.
In a tearful video shared on Instagram, ‘The Power Of Love’ singer said: “As you know I’ve always been an open book and I wasn’t ready to say anything before but I am ready now.
“I’ve been dealing with problems with my health for a long time and it’s been really difficult for me to face my challenges and to talk about everything that I’ve been going through.”
She added: “While we’re still learning about this rare condition, we now know this is what’s been causing all the spasms I’ve been having.”
Dion would cancel all of her 2023 and 2024 tour dates as she continued to deal with the disorder.
n an episode of Hoda and Jenna, Hoda Kotb discusses an interview with Dion and claims how the singer told her she ‘almost died’.
The TV personality says: “Celine Dion at some point, she is now much better but, at some point, she almost died, which is something that she says, and it was a scary time.”
In an interview with Vogue, Dion revealed that she’s opened up further about her condition as she wants fans to know the ‘full truth’.
She explained: “I wanted to do it as a documentary because it’s not a quick thing and there is no quick fix to what I’ve gone through.
“It’s not just about vocal exercising and doing Pilates. It’s rehabilitation physically and vocally, emotionally and spiritually – the whole shebang. And I want this story to be told in a classy way. I respect my fans and myself enough for them to know the full truth.”
