A blended family united in mourning
The arrival of Jane B.’s coffin carried by her daughters, the poignant speech of Charlotte Gainsbourg, then that of Lou Doillon, the speech of the writer Olivier Rolin, the last companion of the deceased… The religious ceremony was rich in emotion. After two hours of homage, it was to applause, with “La Javanaise” in the background, that the coffin was released.

Lou Doillon was supported by her eldest son Marlowe (21), not far from Roman (36), the son of the late Kate Barry.
