Isabelle Mergault and her mother who died 8 years ago…
The accomplice and great friend of Laurent Ruquier wanted to share this important milestone reached with her subscribers on Twitter. “My mother died 8 years ago and it’s only now that I decided to delete her number from my contacts”the 66-year-old actress, director and columnist first wrote soberly.
Isabelle Mergault, who was recently seen among the VIPs at the funeral of Michel Blanc – whom she directed in his film I find it very beautiful – added: “It’s crazy how sometimes it takes time to do that. As if, keeping her number, we keep her a little longer. It’s so irrational!”
“I was never able to remove it”
A poignant message, although very simple, which found a special resonance among its subscribers and friends. In fact, the said post has been reposted no less than 800 times, and commented on more than 1000 times. Many anonymous people wanted to provide their support to the actress and director of the film Hands of goldand some stars also wanted to react.
Thus, host Valérie Damidot responded to Isabelle Mergault’s message to discuss her personal experience: “I was never able to remove it”. And Franck Dubosc gave the same speech. “I still have mine’s number. And so many others…”retorted the actor. Marks of affection which touched Isabelle Mergault, who wanted to speak one last time on this subject: “I realize with the tweet about my mother to what extent I am not the only one to have kept her number for so long. And all your testimonies are very poignant.”
