But Love Prevails!
Despite the challenges they faced, René and Céline ended up embarking on a romantic relationship together, which they only disclosed to family and friends until they became engaged in 1993, which Céline announced in the liner notes of her English-language album, The Colour of My Love. Céline has said that she wasn’t worried about the reception to her announcement, because when you’re in love, you don’t care what anybody else thinks of your relationship.
Céline’s Career Began to Skyrocket
In 1990, Céline released her first English-language album, Unison. With this release, she cracked the American market, with her single Where Does My Heart Beat Now charting at #5. Céline also performed on a variety of talk shows, and that same year, she was awarded a Juno Award for Album of the Year, and another for Female Vocalist of the Year. The Junos are Canada’s most prestigious musical awards, so this was an enormous achievement for the young singer.
