Terrible drama for Celine Dion a few days after the Christmas holidays. The Quebec star, who has been dealing with the disease for almost three years, has just learned the brutal and tragic death of Brigitte, his niece and daughter of Clément Dion, his older brother aged 76. The fifty-year-old, who was the grandmother of two grandchildren, was the victim of a car accident as revealed by our Canadian colleagues from Montreal Journal. The events occurred around 6:15 p.m. on Thursday December 28, 2023, and unfortunately, Brigitte Dion was in no way involvedand was targeted by a crazy car that was coming in front of her…
For a reason that remains to be determined, a vehicle left its lane suddenly, and found himself in the opposite direction in the commune of Saint-Thomas, located near Joliette. This movement caused a first violent head-on collision with a vehicle coming in the other direction, then a second, with a third vehicle hitting the other two. Brigitte Dion was one of the drivers of these two cars, a white Mini Cooper. The fifty-year-old, mother of a daughter who had given her two grandchildren, was less than two kilometers from his home…She was only 51 years old.
No injuries noted
Brigitte Dion is the only victim of this accident. She died instantly and was pronounced dead on site by firefighters. The drivers and passengers of the two other vehicles involved had only minor injuries and were taken to the hospital for follow-up examinations. An investigation was opened to determine the causes which led the vehicle at fault to continue its journey in the opposite lane. A terrible tragedy for the close-knit Dion clan, just a few days after the Christmas holidays. On January 16, the singer, who has suffered from stiff man syndrome for several yearswill celebrate the eighth anniversary of the death of her husband René Angélil.
