In the light, Françoise Hardy and Jacques Dutronc form a glamorous and simple couple who have made millions of French people dream. But in the shadows, it is a very alone Françoise Hardy who has moved forward in the relationship. Jacques Dutronc himself admitted not having always been present at his side, nor impeccable.
It was at the end of 1972 that Françoise Hardy became pregnant with Thomas. We learn in particular in the book Françoise Hardy – The time of love, released in 2022 by Casa editions by the author Christian Eudeline that at the time, the medical profession had announced to the singer that she was pregnant with a girl. Like all future parents in the world, Françoise Hardy and Jacques Dutronc then discuss the first name in order to reach an agreement. Jacques doesn’t really give him a choice since “the latter tells him that Thomas will be perfect.“
If Jacques Dutronc had been right, his relationship with Françoise Hardy would not really survive. After years of suffering with the singer, Françoise Hardy turns the page and mourns a romantic relationship which will turn into true friendship, an unwavering bond that the bride and groom, who never divorced, maintained until the end. END.
Jacques Dutronc visited Françoise Hardy before her death
Although they had once occupied two different apartments in the same building, Françoise Hardy had finally moved into smaller accommodation located on Boulevard Suchet in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. It is here that the singer spent her last moments, crossed from time to time by worried neighbors. But they had the opportunity to note that Jacques Dutronc had visited him during the last two weeks of his life.
Several of them then thought: “It wasn’t a good sign,” “everyone knew it was going to happen. It’s been a while since we saw her.“After a long fight against illness and several appeals to advance the fight to die with dignity, Françoise Hardy has bowed out. Her funeral will take place in Paris this Thursday, June 20, four days after her son’s birthday.
