With a busy career, Line Renaud is filled … or almost. In an interview with France Dimanche, in September, the actress who appears in Le Squat on France 3, this Tuesday, December 28, expresses only one regret: not having been a mother.
At 93, Line Renaud is an active woman. Since his stroke, the actress took part in the filming two TV movies produced by Emmanuel Rigaut, Murders in the three valleys and The squat, which we find this Tuesday, December 28 on France 3. She also shot alongside Dany Boon in Christian Carion’s film, A great race. “I haven’t stopped working! But I can’t imagine life without work. I’m lucky to be somewhat hyperactive, it’s in my genes“, she assures in the columns of France Sunday last September 17.
If on the professional side Line Renaud has a busy career in cinema, theater and music, on the private side, the actress emits only one regret, that of not having had a child. “It is the great regret of my life, the one that I constantly nourish. That is a real failure. In a second life, I would have an orphanage “, she allows herself to dream.
“Loulou didn’t want to be a father”
Line Renaud nevertheless knew love in the arms of the music composer Loulou Gasté for 45 years. “He put me in the spotlight as he faded away “, she confides with emotion in Elle magazine. Loulou Gasté did everything for her, except for a child. However, at 18, Line Renaud fell pregnant with her companion. But the actress aborts, she “could not cope with this pregnancy. “ Line Renaud remembers her grandmother, who got pregnant at 17, who had “suffered so much”. Above all, “Loulou didn’t want to be a father. ” Her abortion, Line Renard has never forgotten: “The old woman who rummaged in (her) belly with a knitting needle “. That day she has “almost died of sepsis”, she says in Elle.
Line Renaud misses the laughter of a toddler terribly. So a few years later, the actress emits the desire to adopt a child. But her husband will never change his mind. “A woman who has not had children is not completely successful in her life. I wanted so much to have a child but Loulou didn’t want it, she expressed to Gala.fr. After I talked about adoption, he didn’t want it either. And I understand that because he already had his child. I was 16 and he was 36. I was like her child so she didn’t miss it. But that was the case with me until I was 70.“A void in Line’s heart that she tried to fill by taking affection for Muriel Robin and Claude Chirac. In 2018, on the set of Laurent Delahousse, Line Renaud had let go to the confidence: “I didn’t have the trouble to raise them, but I would have liked. They really are my daughters. “
