Child of a sick father with incurable lung cancer. Aël, a 25-year-old woman, spoke about her passion, but also about her relationship with her father, Florent Pagny, through an interview with Audrey Crespo-Mara on TF1.
Aël was born in France in Boulogne-Billancourt in 1999, three years after her big brother Inca. They are the result of a love story between the famous musician and coach of “The Voice” and the former Argentinian model Azucena Caamaño. Addicted to photography since adolescence, she goes to study at school Parsons School of Design from New York at the age of 17. After graduating, she moved to the “Big Apple” to begin her career. His Instagram account gives a good overview of his inclinations: nature, travel and especially fashion.
A fusional relationship
In the fall of 2021, the young woman accompanied her father on the tour organized for his 60th birthday, with a view to producing a photo book immortalizing this special moment in his career. But only a few months after the announcement of lung cancer from which the singer suffered, his plans would be disrupted. And their common project. For more than three years, with his camera in hand, Aël Pagny documented his father's fight against illness and captured powerful moments on the road to recovery. “Pagny by Aël” will be published by Harper Collins on November 6. As for Florent Pagny, we will be able to find him at the beginning of 2025 in the next season of “The Voice”, filming of which has just started.
Facing Audrey Crespo-Mara for the portrait of the week from Sept to Huit, Aël explains: “We did this session because he was going to do The Voice lives, and he decided that he wanted to show his new appearance to the public before the lives, so that it wouldn't be, perhaps, as shocking for everyone”she began by explaining. “I think I didn't see the sick man, I was taking a picture of my dad. I think it also reassured him because it's true that the change in appearance was a shock for him […]”.
Inca's little sister also confided in her dad's current state of health and the least we can say is that the artist preferred to remain lucid. “He is doing very well, fortunately, not long ago he had an examination and everything is fine. We are waiting for the next one in three months, but for now we are happy”she assured.
