Shania Twain has reflected on the devastating collapse of her first marriage and revealed how she found love again with a man navigating the very same betrayal. The 60-year-old singer separated from record producer Robert “Mutt” Lange in 2008 after learning that he had reportedly been having an affair with her close friend and assistant, Marie-Anne Thiébaud. In an extraordinary twist, Shania later fell in love with Marie-Anne’s then-husband, Swiss businessman Frédéric Thiébaud, after the pair supported each other through the breakdown of their respective marriages. © Getty ImagesShania with husband Frederic Speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs, Shania revealed that it was Frédéric who first confronted her with the truth about their spouses. “Fred takes the blinders off, tells me what’s going on.

So, Fred and I, we collapse and at some point, we just got to let it go.” © InstagramShania Twain …
Shania Twain has infused her tour wardrobe with a selection of archival Dolce & Gabbana pieces, resulting in a striking fusion of delicate, whisper-thin lace and bold leather accents. The singer took to Instagram on June 19 to thank the Italian fashion house for their collaboration with her.
