René-Charles Angélil, Celine Dion’s son, has changed a lot as he’s grown up.

He now looks a lot like his late father and seems older than he really is, according to people online.

His look includes a beard and signs of balding.

Celine Dion was married to René Angélil for 21 years. He sadly passed away in January 2016 after a long fight with cancer. He was 73 years old when he died at their Las Vegas home.

Angélil left behind his wife, Celine Dion, who won five Grammy Awards and whom he married in December 1994. They had three children together. In the years following, Dion has also shared her own health challenges.

In an emotional Instagram video from December 2022, Celine Dion revealed she was diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder called Stiff Person Syndrome. She announced the cancellation of her European tour because of her condition and shared her deep sadness over this difficult decision.

Despite losing her long-time spouse and dealing with her illness, Celine Dion has stayed strong, thanks to the support of her three sons: René-Charles, and twins Nelson and Eddy, who are 13. René-Charles, born in January 2001, is her eldest child.

This single guy raised 30 children and adopted five more; here’s how they all live now

Being a foster parent means making a change in a child’s life. These people are compassionate and caring and always ready to open their hearts and homes to minors in need of love and kindness.

Lamont Thomas from Buffalo, New York, has devoted the last 20 years of his life fostering children. Speaking to Good Morning America of the time he welcomed the first child, this amazing man says, “In the beginning, I was helping out some friends. They had lost their child to the system. I went on and got certified and became a foster parent. I haven’t stopped since.”

Believe it or not, Lamont has fostered more than 30 kids, five of which he officially adopted. So with his two biological children, Anthony and LaMonica, he became a father of seven.

The first kid Lamont adopted is Michael Thomas. He’s now 27 and recalls the time he became part of the family.

“He was my third foster home and it ended up being my forever home,” Michael said. “He [knew] my biological parents.”

“Lamont never turned [a child] away,” Michael added. “They either aged out or went back home to their own families.”

With seven kids to take care of on his own, Lamont knew he was done adopting, but then he came across a very special case that made him change his mind.

Five siblings aged 5,4,3,2 and 1, who were children of one of Lamont’s foster kids were placed in foster homes themselves. Lamont was sad the kids got to experience their parent’s fate, and his heart tore apart when he learned Zendaya, Jamel, Nakia, Major, and Michaela were separated. Not only they were taken in by four different families, but they were also in four different cities.

Sadly, that meant one thing, that they wouldn’t be raised together.

That’s when Lamont stepped in. He just couldn’t let the siblings spend their childhood without being by each other’s side so he re-certified as a foster parent and adopted all of them.

Some of his older kids had moved from the house already and had families on their own, so Lamont knew he was making the right decision as he could devote all his time to the new addition to the family.

“I was fighting to keep back the tears,” he said of his adoption day with Judge Lisa Rodwin. “Every day I think about it, my eyes swell up. All that we endured to make this happen, it was something.”

This incredible single dad was now a father of 12 children. He knew things wouldn’t be easy, but he was willing to give it a go.

“They bring new energy to me,” Lamont shared. “They’re lovable kids, very affectionate. They deserve to be raised as siblings, and that was my fight.”
