“I learned about it when…” Aël, Florent Pagny’s daughter: her reaction after the announcement of the diagnosis
The rest after the ad
At only 25 years old, Florent Pagny’s daughter released her first book. After the singer’s autobiography entitled Pagny by Florent released in April 2023, it is now Pagny by Aël which will be published on November 6, 2024 by HarperCollins. A book where Inca’s sister shares many photos of her father during his 60th birthday tour. Photographs inevitably marked by his long fight against lung cancer, which he announced publicly on January 25, 2022.
This disease has also been nicknamed “the switch” by Azucena’s husband. The young woman explains: “Because she put not only her tour on hold but our entire lives. I learned about the first diagnosis when I was getting back on the plane. for Argentina. I wondered about staying, but mom was with him. I said to myself ‘he has his other half with him’It’s good. I will be more useful in managing our farm in Argentina. We lived day by day, but we knew he was in good hands for treatment. We were going to experience it as another adventure, even if we hadn’t chosen it.”
“What did you think of him revealing his cancer publicly?” our colleagues ask him. Aël confides: “It was logical because he was stopping his tour, and then there is nothing to hide. By speaking, we are not alone in suffering. He just warned us to prepare us.”
A “day to day” life
From now on, Florent Pagny is on the road to recovery and will soon be back in The Voice. For this fourteenth season, he will be surrounded by Zaz, Patricia Kaas and Vianney. “It’s cool, it means I’ll be able to go there and sneak everywhere” laughs Aël. Concerning her health examinations, the pretty young woman remains cautious and reveals: “It’s a bit day by day. He does check-ups every three months, to make sure nothing has come back. He did one this morning (October 16), everything is fine, everything is in order.” A big return eagerly awaited by Florent Pagny fans.
