The relatives of Véronique and Laurent, who disappeared in Madeira two weeks ago, are waiting. Their daughter Pauline revealed the last conversation she had with her mother.
What happened to Laurent and Véronique Blond? The couple of bakers who disappeared in Madeira have still not given any sign of life, after two weeks without news. This March 28, 2024, a reconstruction of the disappearance of little Émile was made in Haut-Vernet to try to find his trace. He has not been seen since July 8, 2023. Young Léna, 15, disappeared on September 23 and three people were taken into police custody on Tuesday March 26.

Their second daughter, Pauline Pasquier, spoke out on the case.
Véronique’s last conversation with her daughter
Asked by BFM TV, she says she feels helpless and lost. She confides: “Sad also because we have to face the facts, the chances are very slim of finding them alive. We are devastated”. The hypotheses put forward would be those a bad fall or a voluntary disappearance. But the young woman regrets a lack of support from the Portuguese authorities.
