“A member of his family committed suicide”, the singer already recently faced with death

It’s a real media storm in which the singer Kendji Girac has been swept away since he was hospitalized in Bordeaux, transported urgently from a Traveler area in Biscarrosse where he was staying within his community, on the night of Sunday April 21 to Monday April 22. The interpreter of Color Gitano had simulated a suicide attempt with a firearm after a violent argument with his partner Soraya Miranda. This was revealed by the investigation opened a few hours after the accident and which also revealed that the artist had drunk a lot of alcohol during the hours which preceded the tragedy and that it was otherwise under the influence of cocaine.

Kendji Girac would therefore have wanted to make Soraya Miranda believe that he was ready to end his life if she left him, while tensions had emerged in the couple around the education of their daughter Eva, in particular. It was the public prosecutor of Mont-de-Marsan who decided to release all these details, much to the chagrin of the singer and his managers who quickly expressed their dissatisfaction. During his press conference, Olivier Janson also explained thata close family member of Kendji Girac had ended his life the same way he had failed to do last week in his trailer.

A disturbing resemblance to the suicide of an uncle

Indeed, the public prosecutor recalled that “suicide exists” even within the traveling community. “It’s even the news of Kendji Girac’s family through the suicide of an uncle, more or less close”he declared, before clarifying his remarks: “A member of his family who was seriously ill and who committed suicide on March 24, 2024, in Dordogne, with a gunshot. This gunshot was fired in the chest and the wife of the person concerned was nearby”. A dramatic situation which is reminiscent of that experienced by Soraya Miranda on the night of Sunday April 21 to Monday April 22. From there to think that the singer who had been brooding for several months was inspired by it…

Olivier Janson also wanted to emphasize that suicide was, what is more, “a real taboo in the community”, “mainly for religious reasons”according to him. “I was able to hear or read, from Travelers, I quote, ‘with us, that does not exist, a gypsy does not commit suicide’. This type of act exists in the community of Travelers. travel, like everywhere, like in any community, but it is excessively, difficult to accept”he concluded before confirming that the investigation was now complete and that the artist would begin a long convalescence.

A documentary dedicated to Kendji Girac on May 20

Everything suggests that Kendji Girac will not be able to go to Cannes for the 77th edition of the famous Festival, and join his friend Eva Longoria for the traditional Global Gala Gift for which he was announced on May 19. On the other hand, the winner of The Voice 3 will be in the spotlight on RMC Story the next day, with the broadcast of a documentary on this highly publicized affair.

In a press release, the channel invites viewers from 9:10 p.m. and reveals the summary of its show. “Some speak of addiction to alcohol and cocaine. What are his links with the gypsy community in which he grew up and with which he continues to live together for at least six months a year? His wife had told him Did she really threaten to leave him by taking her daughter with her? investigation into the descent into hell of the 27-year-old singer“, it is announced, suggesting that answers could be provided, just as it is confirmed that Estelle Denis will host a debate around all these societal questions in the process. We will then have to wait before seeing Kendji Girac on television again, even if we know thata new issue of the show Meeting in unknown land has been turned with him very recently.
