Legacy of Johnny Hallyday: why David Hallyday received nothing: Femme Actuelle Le MAG

When Johnny Hallyday disappears on December 5, 2017, thousands of fans mourn the death of the rocker. Around his coffin, his widow Laeticia and his children David and Laura say goodbye to the husband and the father. This stealthy image of family communion will be the only one. As soon as Johnny Hallyday's will was discovered at the start of 2018, by which the prisoner disinherited his two elders, Nathalie Baye's daughter decided to start the fight. It will be judicial but also and above all media. Two clans then clash and the small murderous sentences fuse. Laeticia is portrayed as a venal woman and a monopolist who would hide behind her immaculate smile a mysterious financial skill. After a long way of the cross, the two parties would finally have reached an agreement concerning the distribution of the property of the missing singer. But the latter excludes Sylvie Vartan's son from the will.

David Hallyday wants to stay away from the judicial conflict

Friday July 3, 2020, Laeticia Hallyday therefore sent a press release in which she said she had found a "definite" agreement with Laura Smet. David Hallyday, hitherto remained discreet in these family quarrels, is therefore not included in this deal. "He is not concerned because he did not ask for anything"affirmed his lawyer Maître Jean-Pierre Douvier to our colleagues from Télé-Loisirs, suggesting that Johnny's eldest son is giving up his share of the pie. "All David wants is that these three sisters, Laura, Jade and Joy are not harmed. This appears to be the case and we welcome it. My client also wants to be able to ensure that his father's image is preserved"he concludes.
