Country songstress Shania Twain and her new husband Frederic Thiebaud are eager to have a baby very soon! Pals of the couple, who exchanged vows in Rincon, Puerto Rico on New Year’s Day, say they are ready to start their own family! “Shania feels that having a baby with Frederic will make their new life complete,” a friend tells the National Enquirer. “Ideally, she’d like to carry the child herself, but due to her age she hasn’t ruled out having a surrogate or adopting.”

Shania and Frederic’s children are best friends!

Both Shania, 45, and Frederic, 40, have 9-year-old children with their exes — Shania’s son Eja with Mutt Lange and Frederic’s daughter Johanna with Marie-Anne Thiebaud. Mutt and Marie-Anne had an extramarital affair that eventually broke up both marriages, leading Shania and Frederic to find comfort in each other and end up falling in love.

We wish them the best of luck making their baby dreams come true!

After initial heartbreak, Shania Twain and boyfriend Frederic Thiebauld were married in Rincon, Puerto Rico on Jan. 1. The pair had been close friends when Shania’s husband of 14 years, Mutt Lange, left her for Frederic’s wife, Marie-Anne Thiebauld. The duo grew close after this spousal betrayal and began dating in August of 2009.

The small and intimate ceremony included 40 of the couple’s closest friends and family and happened on the beach at sunset. The bride’s wedding dress was from a small boutique in Switzerland while Frederic, 40, wore a white three piece suit and dark shirt.

This is the second marriage for both and Shania, 45, has a 9-year-old son Aja with her ex.

Congratulations to the newlyweds!

Country crooner Shania and Valerie both walk down the aisle of New Year’s Day in front of friends and family!

It was a very, very special New Year’s Day for both Shania Twain and Valerie Bertinelli Jan. 1 as the two women said “I Do” in intimate ceremonies. A rep for Shania told People she and beau Frédéric Thiébaud were, “married at sunset in Rincon, Puerto Rico, in front of 40 of their closest family and friends.” Congratulations!

As for Valerie, People reports she married her boyfriend of seven years, financial planner Tom Vitale, in Malibu. Among those in attendance were her Hot In Cleveland costars Jane Leeves and Wendie Malick, as well as Michelle Phillips.

This is the second marriage for both women. Shania was previously married to producer Mutt Lange, while Valerie had a 25 year relationship with Eddie Van Halen — who attended the wedding!

Shania Twain had a pretty public heartbreak back in May 2008, when her husband of 14 years, music producer Mutt Lange, reportedly left her for another woman. Even worse, it was rumored that the woman was Shania’s best friend, Marie-Anne Thiébaud. Suddenly single, Shania turned to Marie-Anne’s likewise spurned husband, Frédéric Thiébaud, for support. Flashforward to today, and the pair are engaged, and pals say their children brought them closer together!

Shania, 45, has a son with Mutt, 9-year-old Eja, who is the same age as Frédéric’s daughter, Johanna. As the four started spending more time together — even going on shared vacations — the single parents found their relationship blooming from friendship to love. And their kids bonded too. “Eja and Johanna have become best friends,” says a source close to the family tells Us magazine, adding that that Eja looks at his mom’s new fiancé as a father figure.

“I’m in love!” Shania wrote on her website. “Frederic Nicolas Thiebaud has been a true gift to me as a compassionate, understanding friend and over time, an amazing love has blossomed from this precious friendship.  Fred and I are happy to announce, our ENGAGEMENT!”

Congratulations, Shania! We’re thrilled that you’ve bounced back, better than ever!

After heartache and major disappointment for both Shania & Frederic, the two are looking to happier times as they plan their wedding!

Country singer Shania Twain is finally ready to say “I do” again! The 45-year-old superstar’s reps confirm she’s engaged to Nestle business executive Frederic Thiebaud, 40, after the couple were spotted dining Dec. 16 at Serafina’s Fabulous Grill in NYC — where Shania was sporting a ginormous engagement ring!

“I’ve never seen Shania so happy,” a pal tells Us Weekly. “She has ended up with the love of her life.”

Marriage has been long due for Shania and Frederic. Frederic was formerly married to Shania’s ex-BFF Marie-Anne Thiebaud (the woman Shania’s ex-husband Robert “Mutt” Lange left her for in May 2008 after 14 years of marriage.)

Shania and Frederic grew close after their exes betrayed them. In August 2009, Shania confessed she and Frederic were a couple after they were seen traveling together to New York City, Canada and Florida.

Shania has a 9-year-old son named Eja with her ex. Their divorce was finalized on June 9  and Robert is currently living with Marie-Anne.

Despite both of their heartbreaks, Shania and Frederic couldn’t be happier! Hollywood Life wishes them the best during this happy time!
