Audrey Dana certainly didn't expect to return to her childhood in this way. However, this is what happened during his appearance in A Sunday in the Country this December 1st. Seeing a photo appear of her as a little girl with short-cut hair, the actress was overcome by emotion. “Fuck,” she blurted, before bursting into tears.
His father wanted to raise him as a boy
The actress seen in Le Brio or Under the Girls' Skirts then explained that in this photo, she did not have the right to wear long hair. “My father wanted to raise me as a boy“, confided Audrey Dana in front of Frédéric Lopez and the other guests, Louis Chedid and Baptiste Lecaplain. A shocking revelation which led to others.
Audrey Dana has indeed returned to the difficult conditions in which she grew up. Lack of affection, insecurity, parents who were often absent and who argued a lot before separating when she was 9 years old… The actress portrayed a chaotic childhood which even pushed her to sell drugs. “I sold weed to find something to go to school and eat for lunch,” she admitted.
“At 12 my first joint, at 14 my first acid”
Audrey Dana's mother also wanted to become a foster family, taking in up to fifty “broken, raped, beaten” children. A very unstable environment in which drugs circulated in abundance. “I had all the drugs in the world under my roof. I have tried all the drugs in the world very sparingly. At 12 I had my first joint, at 14 I took my first acid with my mother and sister debating how much acid I could take“, recalled the actress.
Poignant confidences which moved Audrey Dana to tears, visibly still very marked by this unusual and painful childhood. Frédéric Lopez, with all delicacy, knew how to create a climate conducive to the most intimate revelations. A rare and precious moment of television.
