The 'My Heart Will Go On' singer is open to finding love again, almost four years after Rene Angelil died following a long battle with cancer, but she isn't worried if she doesn't find a new partner because she still has the music manager "within" her.

Asked if she is open to remarrying and if she's dating again on 'Watch What Happens Live', she said: "I don't date. I don't have a boyfriend and you know, it doesn't mean that I will not find someone in my life. If I do, that would be great. If I don't, that would be great, because I am still in love.

"Once you're in love so much, you know, I've been living all my life with Rene. He is still within me. I see him through the eyes of my children every day. I'm so passionate about life and I'm so lucky to have my three beautiful sons."

The 51-year-old singer - who has children René-Charles, 18, and Nelson and Eddy, nine, with her late spouse - is "open" to a new romance and promised she wouldn't keep it hidden if she finds love again.

She added: "But, I keep everything open. If it happens, I'm not looking for that. I think it's something that happens, that you feel, that comes, and right now, if I would have someone in my life, I would tell you because I've been an open book all my life. If I do, I'll come back and tell you about it."

Celine also laughed off speculation she was dating her gay friend Pepe Munoz and admitted she wasn't surprised by the rumours.

She said: "I was not surprised, it's just that we're best friends, we're in showbusiness and this industry is made for that. Thats the way best friends hold hands? We have a good time together.

"

It feels like today you cannot have a man hold your hand. Until one day I said, 'He's gay, he's not my boyfriend, calm down, not trying to hide here, everything is cool. Calm down people!' "
