Celine Dion has given her first interview since the death of her husband, René Angélil. The 73-year-old, who was Celine's manager and the father of her three children, died from throat cancer in January of this year. She sat down with ABC News' Deborah Roberts to talk about the final moments before his death and share what she said to him. She told Deborah that all she wanted was for René to 'go in peace'. She revealed that she said to him, saying, “I started to talk to him and I said to him, you know what, I just want you to go in peace. You were worrying for my career. You were worrying for the children. "You were worrying for everything. It's enough. Do you trust me? Please do. Trust me. The kids are fine. I'm fine. I promise you we're gonna be OK. Please leave in peace. I don't want you to worry.” The couple have three children together, 5-year-old twins Nelson and Eddy and 15-year-old René-Charles. She also spoke about how she broke the sad news to their children. She said that she used the story of the movie Up, saying, "Before I told them that their dad was not there, I talked about when we, everybody, gets sick. Then I said, ‘Do you remember the movie ‘Up’?” “It's one of our favorite...'Oh,’ they said, ‘Yes, Ellie went up. You know, she with the balloons.' And I said, ‘Well, yeah … You know, today Papa went up.'" She added, "The only thing I wanted is for them to say ‘up’. Up is a good thing. Up is uplifting.” And that she told the boys, "We’re gonna say, ‘Papa, we love you. Have a good up.’ And we're gonna spread this, and it’s gonna go to him.”
