See What Celine Dion's Twins Look Like Now

The iconic singer shared some rare snaps of her sweet family.

Celine Dion is best known for her powerhouse voice, which has sold out shows across the world for decades now. But beyond her legendary prowess as a performer, she's also a proud mom to three boys. While Dion raised her children largely out of the spotlight, she's recently begun sharing rare snaps of her sons on Instagram, accompanied by sweet messages of support. Her most recent family portrait included her eldest son, 20-year-old Rene-Charles Angélil, and 10-year-old twins Eddy and Nelson Angélil. While many fans may remember the twins from their famous Hello! cover shot shortly after their birth, they look a whole lot different today. Read on to see her growing twin sons, and for an update on Dion's firstborn, See Celine Dion's Son All Grown Up at 20.

On the twins' 10th birthday in October, the singer also shared a thoughtful birthday message in celebration of her sons' first decade on Earth. Dion accompanied her message with some adorable throwback photos of the twins as toddlers enjoying the fall foliage. She paired the childhood snaps with recent portraits of the boys playing in the leaves, showing just how much they've grown.

"Nelson and Eddy, you have been bringing so much joy, love and laughter into our lives every single day for the past 10 years," the singer wrote. "You make me, your big brother and your Dad, who is for sure watching over you, so very proud. Happy birthday my beautiful boys! We love you so very much," she said.

Never one to shy away from the causes near and dear to her heart, Dion has included the twins in her activism online and IRL. In one recent photo she shared on Instagram, the singer spoke out in support of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD). Adorned in purple and holding her young sons, Dion wrote: "Today we're going purple in solidarity with @glaad #SpiritDay! I encourage all of you to join us and take a stand against anti-LGBTQ bullying." She then urged her followers to support LGBTQ youth via GLAAD's resources.

Dion's beliefs have also informed her parenting itself. "I thought they were going to go for the big superheroes. They were looking at princesses," she told InStyle of her young sons. "I end up saying to myself, 'You know what, it's OK.' You know why it's OK? Because they're talking, they're finding themselves."

Dion's proudest achievement is parenting her sons.

Celine Dion has maintained a four-decade-long career that's won her countless accolades, including Grammys, Academy Awards, Golden Globes, and more. She's sold out stadiums, maintained a 16-year residency in Las Vegas, and succeeded by just about every other metric in global entertainment.

Yet the singer says that parenting her children is still her greatest accomplishment. "What makes me most proud is to be a mother," she said to Extra. "I have three magnificent kids, [and] through them, I see my husband and I have the strength today to keep dressing up."
