Charlotte Gainsbourg on the subject of her father: “These are moments of unconditional love”
Thirty years after the singer’s death, Charlotte Gainsbourg, who was only 19 at the time, keeps a very fond memory of her relationship with her father. If she describes him as someone from “Very modest”, who never told him “I love you” or never gave him a hug, Serge Gainsbourg was still very loving with his daughter. “I felt like I had a favorite place with my father. It is moments of unconditional love. I think that it couldn’t have made me happier”, she says today.
