How to say goodbye to him? This is the question that Françoise Hardy’s loved ones and countless fans, all generations combined, have been asking themselves since her death on June 11. After an endless battle against illness, Françoise Hardy gave up and died at the age of 80 as announced by her son, Thomas Dutronc. It’s that Thursday June 20, at the Père Lachaise cemeterylocated in the 20th arrondissement of Paris, which his funeral will take place.
Beautiful people should come to pay tribute to him. Anonymous and above all celebrities that she was able to rub shoulders with during her career. Many singing stars, including her courageous son Thomas Dutronc, obviously, will be present to salute the memory of the one who fought so hard and whom life did not spare.
There is no doubt that Juliette Armanet will be part of the assembly. The singer, who has just celebrated her 40th birthday, befriended by Françoise Hardy since 2018. This is what she made known in the pages of Paris Match special on Françoise Hardy, published on June 15: “Françoise became my godmother for the Victoires de la Musique, then she came to see me at La Cigale and we continued to communicate by email. We maintain a nice correspondence.“Juliette Armanet affirms that Françoise Hardy did not lack character and frankness:”She was not a woman of pretense. She was an unusual woman because she had no filter.”
Françoise Hardy predicted the future of Juliette Armanet
And precisely, as a fan of astrology, Françoise Hardy had created the astral theme of the interpreter of Dernier jour du disco, whom she considered to be a “great melodist“. And she wasn’t the type to take it lightly when announcing the not necessarily good news she noticed: “A few years ago, she did my son’s birth chart and mine.“, she says. “She predicted to me a somewhat unhappy future in love. I hope she was wrong at least on this point. Because for the rest, she was right.”
Very discreet about her sentimental life, Juliette Armanet allowed herself some light confidences on this subject concerning her companion, their son and their simple daily life and its fuss: “Sleeping, seeing my son and my husband, eating, reading and making apple pies. It is vital” she confided to Parisian. The singer also spoke of a “shattering breakup” in another interview. We do not know whether the main person concerned was the father of her son or not but one thing is certain, last year, it was very much in love that Juliette Armanet appeared in the stands at Roland-Garros.
