It is a very painful year which is coming to an end for Lou Doillon and the other members of his family. On July 16, 2023, the actress lost her mother, Jane Birkin, following another stroke. As she struggles to mourn, Lou Doillon can count on the support of his half-sister Charlotte Gainsbourg. Already at the beginning of the year, the two actresses had posted a publication to honor the memory of Kate Barry on her birthday. The siblings were once again united for this tribute. This Tuesday, December 12, Lou Doillon published a rare photo of her and her half-sister, Kate Barry, on the tenth anniversary of his death.
It was in an Instagram story that Lou Doillon revealed a tender photo. Thus, the two sisters appear in each other’s arms, in this photo which perfectly transcribes the joy of living that reigns within these siblings. Lou Doillon wears a top hat and is all smiles, while Kate Barry is a little more discreet, probably more used to being behind the lens than in front. To accompany the image, the actress simply put a heart with a bandage to express the pain she experiences every year on the same date.
