She's had an unbelievably tragic 2016.

Retrospective: Celine Dion, 48, is looking back on the ups and downs of it in a video posted to Facebook

'To mark the end of 2016, Celine and her team share with you a retrospective of this past year #TheShowMustGoOn,' a post on the Grammy winner's Facebook page stated

'To mark the end of 2016, Celine and her team share with you a retrospective of this past year #TheShowMustGoOn,' a post on the Grammy winner's Facebook page stated.

The retrospective video begins with heartbreaking footage from Angelil's funeral, showing Celine and the couple's three kids - Rene-Charles, 15, and 6-year-old twins Nelson and Eddy.

Rene Angelil, who was also the singer's manager, died on January 14 at 73 years old after a long battle with throat cancer.

The couple had been married for 21 years. They officially began dating in 1987, when she was 19 years old and he 45. By 1991 they were engaged.

It was only in 1993, however, that she publicized their romance, slipping the announcement into the liner notes of her album The Colour of My Love.

In December 1994 they married in Montreal's Notre-Dame Basilica, which this year also became the venue for Angélil's funeral. It was, of course, Dion's first marriage, but her new husband's third, and the wedding was filmed for TV in Canada.

Two-days later, on January 16 (and what would have been her husband's 74th birthday), Celine lost her brother Daniel, 59, to cancer as well.

In the video, the songstress recalled some of the biggest moments and performances of her life, including Angelil's memorial in Las Vegas in February, a nine-show mega string of concerts in Paris and her introduction to the haute couture fashion scene during Paris Fashion Week.

The Show Must Go On singer also highlighted the moment she won the Icon Award at the Billboard Music Awards on May 22 and her son Rene-Charles was on-hand to present it to her.

The five-time Grammy winner released her 26th studio album in August as a tribute to her late husband and toured around Europe and Canada to promote it.
