Celine Dion
Although the pregnancy is going well, Celine Dion was admitted to St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Florida on Sunday morning. The famous singer checked into hospital to prevent an early birth of her twin sons.
“Ms. Celine Dion has been admitted to St. Mary’s Medical Center… for observation at the recommendation of her doctors,” the hospital press release said according to Reuters. Dion was hospitalized as a precaution to prevent a premature birth, this being the recommendation of her doctors. The 42 years old star was admitted to hospital “to prevent the early delivery of her babies which is the standard of care for any patient with twin pregnancy in this clinical setting,” the statement released by the medical center continued.
Celine Dion already has a nine years old son with her husband and manager Rene Angelil. However, the singer wanted another baby and the two boys she is expecting are, according to reports, the result of a sixth in-vitro fertilization attempt.
“At no time did Ms. Dion or her husband make any special demands or requests of the hospital. She is not scheduled at any predetermined date for her delivery. She has not requested or selected any particular staff or accommodations not available to other patients,” the statement added. This part pf the medical center’s statement came as a response to the rumors that indicated Celine Dion having already scheduled a caesarean section delivery for October 22. Media reports claimed that the singer handpicked her nursing staff and asked for rooms for her security team. However, all rumors were denied by the medical center in their official statement.
