CELINE DION is pregnant with an embryo that was frozen for eight years, her fertility doctor has revealed.
The singer has revealed she is expecting her second child with husband Rene Angelil - a little brother or sister for the couple's eight-year-old son Rene-Charles.
And fertility specialist Dr. Zev Rosenwaks has revealed he implanted an embryo in the 41 year old's womb that had been frozen in liquid nitrogen since the in vitro fertilisation that helped her conceive Rene-Charles.
Dr. Rosenwaks tells People.com, "She came back to have the embryos transferred back because she wanted to have another baby."
And when the pregnancy test came back positive, she was thrilled.
The doctor adds, "She was very happy. So was Rene. They are both very thankful.
"She is feeling well. So far, so good. I look forward to hearing the fetal heartbeat. Rene and Celine are both looking forward to pregnancy that is a healthy one."

DION PREGNANT - REPORT

Singing superstar CELINE DION is pregnant with her second child, according to a new report.
The Canadian star, 41, is already mum to eight-year-old Rene-Charles, her only child with husband Rene Angelil, 67.
The youngster was conceived after the couple underwent fertility treatment.
Dion and her husband are said to have employed the services of another team of fertility doctors in New York City to help the singer fulfil her dream of becoming a mother again, according to the Journal de Montreal.
Dion recently admitted she wanted to have another baby after she wrapped up her Taking Chances World Tour in February (09), telling talk show host Oprah Winfrey, "We are going to give it a try after my tour. Hopefully we (can get) pregnant again.
"I have a small window of hope. But we have been so blessed already. We tried six years for Rene-Charles. We have our miracle baby."
Angelil, Dion's former manager, has three children from two previous marriages.
A representative for Dion had not replied to a request for comment as WENN went to press.
