Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Celine Dion's spokeswoman has confirmed that the superstar singer suffered a miscarriage. After an in vitro fertilization was successful, spokeswoman Francine Chalout says Dion was only pregnant for 10 days before miscarrying.

Reports of Dion's pregnancy first began in August. The pair would have been expecting their second child.

"We're living the reality of the majority of couples who face these procreation techniques," husband Rene Angelil told Canadian newspaper Journal de Montreal. When reports first broke, her representative released the statement, "While her and Rene are actively trying for a baby, she is not currently expecting."

Dion, the youngest of fourteen children, has expressed interest in the past to grow her family. Her rep says they will aim to continue to try to have a second child.  Dion and Angelil have an 8-year-old son together, Rene-Charles.
