On the occasion of the release of his new album Life, love, etc. the 82-year-old singer described Sanda as his “half orange“, an expression which testifies to the deep affection he has for her. With tenderness, he declared: “I think my life is bad. I ran into Sanda. At 22, if someone had said to me: 'In Bucharest, there is a baby who has just been born, she will be your wife, I would not have believed it.“Indeed, Sanda, a lively Romanian singer, became a central person in his life, particularly after the trials he went through: “She’s the woman of my life“, he declared with emotion. Michel Fugain spoke of the pain that marked his life: the loss of his daughter, Laurette, who died in 2002 at the age of 22 following leukemia. This Tragedy deeply affected his life and his marriage to his first wife Stephanie, which ended after this tragedy. On the show, he shared: “I wrote a book called Laughter and a Tear. My life is laughter all the time with lots of friends, and a tear. A very big tear that I thought I wouldn't recover from.” However, his meeting with Sanda, which occurred a few months after the loss of his daughter, changed the course of his existence. He recalled that their love was first a beautiful friendship before transforming into a romantic relationship, despite the persistent pain of his past.

A passionate relationship
