42-year-old Celine Dion has checked into a Florida hospital to prevent going into early labor with the twins she conceived via in vitro fertilization.

Celine is due in November, but at her age, and with twins, the couple and their doctors aren't taking any chances.

In a statement, the hospital said:

    "Ms. Celine Dion has been admitted to St. Mary's Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Florida for observation at the recommendation of her doctors. She has been admitted to prevent the early delivery of her babies, which is the standard of care for any patient with twin pregnancy in this clinical setting."


And despite rumors that the couple were putting diva-like demands on the staff during their stay, the hospital made sure to reiterate that those were just rumors, nothing more.

"Celine and Rene have placed the health of their babies as their highest priority," their statement continued. "Recently, rumors have circulated that Ms. Dion has made certain demands of St. Mary's Medical Center regarding the birth of her children. All of these rumors are false."

"At no time did Ms. Dion or her husband make any special demands or requests of the hospital. She is not scheduled at any predetermined date for her delivery She has not requested or selected any particular staff or accommodations not available to other patients The patient is being treated as any other OB patient who comes to St. Mary’s Medical Center," they said.

Sounds like St. Mary's is a full-service facility, complete with its own PR person!
