## Resource

Let's get into Céline Dion! One of the greatest voices of all time has a love story that reads very differently through a modern lens. Céline met her late husband and manager René Angélil when she was just 12 and he was 38, he took control of her career almost immediately, and the romance that followed has long made people deeply uncomfortable about when his feelings actually began. She's always framed it as a great and loving marriage, and by all accounts it was devoted until his death. But critics look at that age gap, the power he held over a child star, and the timeline, and see textbook grooming dressed up as fairytale. This unpacks the story fans still argue over.
