On RTL this Monday, Ivan Atal returned to the disappearance of his mother-in-law Jane Birkin.
After Lou Doillon and Charlotte Gainsbourg, it’s Ivan Atal’s turn to talk about the death of Jane Birkin, his mother-in-law. “Like everyone else, when we face extinction, we stick together,” the 58-year-old actor and director emphasized during his appearance on the “RTL Bonsoir” show this Monday, September 11. “It’s very sad. But obviously he was a bit sick, that’s to be expected… But when it happens, it’s always amazing.”
“Noble mother-in-law”
In a relationship with actress Charlotte Gainsbourg for more than thirty years, Ivan Atal also described the special bond that united him with Jane Birkin. “My mother-in-law was my mother-in-law first,” emphasizes the father of Ben, Alice and Joe Attal. I was always lucky to have this great mother-in-law who was completely generous.”
As Ivan Atal tells, the former colleague of Serge Gainsbourg had become “like a sister”. “As an only child, he went to my mother. He did me a big favor by going to see my mother when I wasn’t there, when I was working… He spent a lot of time with my mother and sometimes dragged me when he felt I wasn’t there. purchase. It is not enough. She was like a sister playing that role. And since she is no longer here, I lost my mother-in-law, my sister, and then my mother also lost a very precious presence for her.”
Jane Birkin died on Sunday, July 16, at the age of 76, at her home in Paris. To pay their last respects to Musa, many people went to the Saint-Roch church in the 1st arrondissement on July 24, where the artist’s funeral took place. Among them: Catherine Deneuve, Sandrine Kiberlain, Alain Souchon and Etienne Dahon. And of course, the Birkin clan.
