Guest on “France Inter” in Frédéric Pommier's musical show, singer Jenifer made some confessions about her life as a mother, revealing in particular that she had suffered miscarriages.
Jenifer is not only an accomplished artist with multiple awards and decorated with the Order of Arts and Letters. At 42, the singer is also the mother of three boys: Aaron (21 years old) born from her former relationship with Maxim Nucci, Joseph (10 years old) fruit of her love with the actor Thierry Neuvic, then the youngest, Juvanni ( 3 years) born from her marriage to the Corsican entrepreneur, Ambroise Fieschi.
In addition to the immense happiness felt by Jenifer when becoming a mother, she was not spared from certain pains shared by many women. Invited this Friday, November 29 on France Inter, the singer spoke for the first time about the miscarriages suffered during her life. Faced with journalist Frédéric Pommier, she admitted to being particularly touched by the song “Tears in Heaven” by English singer Eric Clapton. In 1991, the latter lost a child in an accident, a tragedy which he confessed in this poignant title.

Very sensitive to the words, Jenifer declared: “It’s a subject that I understood later, and even more when I became a mother. I have three sons. I dared to imagine putting myself in his place if I lost one of my children. Would I manage to survive? I don't know. In a way, it served as an outlet for certain things I was experiencing. »

Jenifer facing “very intense pain”
Visibly very upset by this conversation, Jenifer felt confident in front of Frédéric Pommier to continue his confidences: “It is very intimate what I am going to say, but I have already experienced miscarriages, for example. Listening to this song made me feel like I had lost a loved one. Sometimes it comes back to me, it was very intense pain. The song has this power to console me. Ultimately, there is something more terrible than what I experienced. It allows me to find myself, to not forget. »
Like Eric Clapton, Jenifer used her art to cure her ailments. She revealed that she had written a song on the painful subject of miscarriages, a song that she is keeping to herself for the moment: “I have never been able to sing it. This is a subject that affects a lot of women. Will I ever have the strength to sing it? It is stored away carefully.”
