Dion has been staying strong since the death of her mother January 16.


Just one day after losing her beloved mom, the singer was back on stage in Miami.


There, she opened up about Therese's death while paying tribute to the late mother-of-14. 


'I'm pretty sure that you heard the news about my mom passing away early this morning,' Celine began, which set off a loud collective sigh from the audience.

She then changed the somber tone to a roar of cheers by assuring fans: 'But I'm doing okay and we're all okay.'


Fighting back tears, Dion went on to talk about how her mother was ill for quite awhile, and that the family knew she wouldn't be with them for long.


She went on to reveal that the family got a call from nurses two days prior to tell them that 'her time was coming soon.'


'So last night I joined my brothers and sisters in Montreal, and I spent the evening at her bedside. We told stories. We sang songs. We hugged each other and we said our goodbyes,' she revealed, which pulled at the heartstrings of the crowd.   


'We are pretty sure that mom waited for us to be all together one more time.'
