Who copied who between Meatloaf and Celine Dion?

They both copied, actually. The original singer is Pandora's Box.

So, Celine Dion's version is actually a cover lol.

I thought "It's all coming back to me now" was written and sang by Celine Dion

Meat Loaf did a remake. Even Celine Dion's version was also a remake. The song was written by Jim Steinman and was first sung by Pandora's Box in 1988. Celine Dion released her own version in 1996 while Meat Loaf released his in 2006. There are other non official covers like that of Lea Michele I'm Glee. During the Era of Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, etc., covers were very common. In fact, many of Celine's hit songs were covers.

The person that wrote the song gave it to Meatloaf in 1986. Meatloaf originally planned to include it in his album (which was eventually released in 1993), but changed his mind and went with another song. He planned to include it in another future album.

However, the songwriter changed his mind and decided that the song was more appropriate for a woman. He and Meatloaf had a dispute because of this decision.

The songwriter then gave the song to a girl group who released it in 1989. That was the first release.

Celine Dion covered it in 1996. That was the second release.

Finally, Meatloaf released his version in 2006.

Quite shocking, really. It seems he had been down for quite a while before he finally succumbed.
