The rest after the ad
The torrential rains which fell on the south of France last week spared no one. Several departments were particularly affected by this bad weather, starting with Var, placed on orange alert. A department in which Saint-Tropez is located and during the night from Saturday to Sunday October 27, the rain continued to fall, notably on the famous home of one of the most iconic stars of the seaside town, Brigitte Bardot. Based in La Madrague since 1958, the cinema icon saw between 300 and 335 millimeters of rain fall in three days and she “witnessed, helplessly, the most threatening and distressing spectacle!”as stated France Sunday this Thursday.
Forced to travel with English canes, the one who recently spoke of her eternal rest and what she wants to accomplish before the end saw her property transformed “in a real pond”. Helpless and “terrified”she recounted her ordeal to an informant, who transcribed them to our colleagues. “The water, driven by the incessant rain, seeped into every corner of the garden, invading the paths, drowning the flowers and covering the vegetation with a dark and muddy layer. In the more than sixty years that I have lived here, I have never seen this. It was as if the sea wanted to invade the land, and my little paradise with it.”Brigitte Bardot would have declared about these three days of intense rain.
The rare confessions of Brigitte Bardot
A necessarily complicated period for the actress and animal lover, who has rarely expressed herself in the media in recent years. However, on the occasion of her 90th birthday last September, she gave an interview to Var Morning. “I'm not planning anything in particular (for his birthday). It will be my life like every day. My dream and the goal of my life in fact is to see one of my wishes come true. I wouldn't want to die before you get this”she explains about her fight for animals and in particular the abolition of bullfighting, before adding: “All my life I have been engineered, tricked out, photographed like no one in the world has been able to be. Now what I want is calm; serenity, the sweetness of life and more screwed up there.”
Very shaken by the terrible bad weather which affected La Madrague, Brigitte Bardot experienced complicated moments, but after the rain comes good weather and the actress will certainly recover from this hard blow.
