Celine Dion nearly died after being diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS).
In 2022, Dion was diagnosed with this little-known neurological disorder that almost killed her. Ahead of the release of an upcoming interview with the singer, Hoda Kotb revealed on an episode of Hoda and Jenna that Dion "almost died" while battling the disorder.
“She's much better now, but at one point she almost died, which she talks about, and it was a scary time,” Kotb said, sharing details of her meeting with Celine.
“She was diagnosed with a terrible disease, and at some point she wondered if she would survive, if she would survive this... Many people wonder ‘what happened, what happened’ and ask her questions about the ‘possibility of returning’... We missed her and it was a very emotional interview,” Kotb said.
The upcoming documentary, entitled "I: Celine Dion," will focus on Dion's love for the stage and her struggle to continue performing on stage despite her diagnosis. In the trailer for this film, Dion is seen crying.
