“My mom was 92. She was ill for quite a while. And we knew she wouldn’t be with us long.
“Two days ago, we got a call from the nurses who were taking care of her so well, saying that her time was coming soon. Very soon. So last night, I joined my brothers and sisters in Montreal and I spent the evening at her bedside.”
“We told stories. We sang songs. We hugged each other. And we said our goodbyes.
“We are pretty sure that mom waited for us to be all together before [she passed],” Celine said of the emotional night according to footage from the concert obtained by TMZ.
The songster also took to Instagram on Friday where she confirmed that her tour would still go on.
