It is in the face of this wave of heartbreaking legal struggle that Laeticia Hallyday had to face. She returns to this ordeal in an interview for RTL France. “He certainly knew that I was strong to get there, but he left me with a lot of problems that he did not manage, for lack of courage, she declares. But it was him, we mightn’t change him. I forgive him today”, explains Laeticia Hallyday, who has seen her relations with the Hallyday family become considerably strained, the conflict pushing them further and further apart. “The only one who might appease these resentments is Johnny, she believes. Because he left and he didn’t fix some things…”
Although solutions have been found, Laeticia Hallyday that there is still “a long way” before a peaceful relationship.
She also deplores the abandonment of her daughters during this conflict, who were “left in mourning”. The widow recounts this immense pain experienced: “We were all three in this mourning, and there was no one left. When we didn’t live like that, that’s what’s painful.
Laeticia Hallyday will conclude with great kindness: “I can’t fix the problems that Johnny left. He is no longer there and obviously, I take responsibility for him as I have always taken on everything for him. This is my life, my destiny. He is the man I have loved and will love all my life, with his weaknesses and his faults.
