“Everything that cannot be redeemed is priceless”

“Memories” gone up in smoke. Guest alongside his mother Amanda Sthers on Europe 1 On Monday January 13, Léon Hesby returned to the fires which continue to ravage Los Angeles, and which destroyed the house of his father Patrick Bruel. “The house was completely burned,” he explained. Above all, we should say the most important and most serious thing is that there are people who died, before houses, before material things.”

Despite the loss of this house, Léon Hesby recalled that his family was not the most deprived in this disaster. “We are obviously very sad, but we are not the most to be pitied because people have lost everything,” he recalled. I wanted to say that it’s not the material or financial things that collapse us, but the emotional part, everything that we can’t buy back, that has no price and all the memories in this house that are gone. »

Patrick Bruel’s house ravaged by flames

Located in the Pacific Palisades district, Patrick Bruel’s house went up in smoke during the Los Angeles fires which have been raging since January 7. The singer shared with his 702,000 subscribers on Instagram an impressive image of the disaster on Thursday January 9, announcing that he had lost his home in the flames.

“The only assurance to which we cannot subscribe is that of emotion, of memories, of objects, of perfumes… and of the silences which surrounded this house which goes up in smoke,” he wrote in the caption . She was so important to us for eight years… Oscar was 13, Léon 11 when we arrived… It’s very hard to see the roots disappear that we worked so hard to build. This evening, I am necessarily thinking of the victims, of my friends, of my neighbors, and of all those who lost everything in this disaster. Their roots and their memory, too.
