Celine's Happiness After Heartache

Earlier this year, Celine Dion insisted it was “definitely too soon” for her to find love again following the death of her husband Rene Angelil. But 18 months after his tragic passing, it seems the singer has found a man who is helping to heal her heart.The pop icon, 49, has been spending increasing amounts of time with her back-up dancer Pepe Munoz, a handsome Spaniard 17 years her junior, leading many to believe they are now officially a couple.

Woman’s Day spotted the pair enjoying an intimate dinner in Paris late last month, and onlookers in France say it seems Pepe is very much Celine’s new squeeze, after they were spotted arm-in-arm outside the Ritz Hotel in the French capital.

Former circus performer Pepe, 32, came into Celine’s life in June, when her butler’s wife recommended him for a role on the diva’s European tour after seeing his sexually charged performance in the Cirque du Soleil show Zumanity in Las Vegas.
