Pascal Sevran, who died on May 9, 2008, sixteen years ago, succumbed to double cancer of the lung and liver at the age of 62. At the time, the former star host known for his strong temperament shared his life with a young man named Julien, aged 18. He had also mentioned their romance in his book The Little Lost Balls published a year after his death, in 2009.
Inconsolable after the death of his former love Stéphane Chomont; died on October 16, 1998 (he also wrote the book Life without him in 2001 to pay tribute to him), Pascal Sevran had met Julien with whom “happiness was inevitable“. A happiness however that he knew “provisional“, even if it lasted for many years. Satisfied with this companion, the former host wrote: “He loved me as the only one before him Stéphane loved me, without a second thought, without any desire other than me“.
The difficult end of life of Pascal Sevran
Pascal Sevran spoke about his illness for the first time in 2007 to journalists from VSD after having surgery for throat cancer: “It’s the saddest summer of my life, the most difficult too.” he indicated. “But I don’t want to make a novel out of it: I had to face what millions of people face in anonymity. Yes, I was operated on and don’t let anyone ask me what, that doesn’t look at no one“. He continued: “If I speak today, it is for the first and last time. I don’t want to indulge in the voyeurism of some people. It is above all to thank the hospital staff of the Limoges University Hospital, the great teachers and the nurses who held my hand“.
Concerning his last wishes, the host had imagined everything with his death: “He presided over his last moments, staged them with the rigor and professionalism that have always characterized him.“, confided a journalist from France Sunday. Buried “in the strictest privacy” in Saint-Pardoux in New Aquitainehe now rests near his father, Jacques Jouhaud, and his ex-companion Stéphane Chaumont.
