Eternal sidekick of Éric Charden, who disappeared 10 years ago, the singer Stone looks back on their story and reveals the secrets of their wedding night… catastrophic!
A not-so-obvious wedding night! We are currently celebrating 10 years since the disappearance of Eric Chardendied at the end of April 2012. Stonewith whom he formed one of the most legendary duos on the stage, but who also shared his life in the city, looks back on their story, which had not yet started in the most romantic of ways. The 74-year-old singer remembers that evening, when she participated in the election of Miss Beatnik organized in a Parisian nightclub and where Éric was one of the jurors. “He drowned his boredom in alcohol and didn’t even vote for me. He had locked himself in the toilet. It’s an understatement to say that it wasn’t love at first sight“, she admits amused in the columns of France Sunday. Fortunately, the two met again some time later at the Bus Palladium, where they got to know each other better.
“Our wedding night was catastrophic!“
Stone and Charden ended up seducing each other…and get married in 1966.”I was 18, I was in love, and my old-school dad cared“, she explains. But again, not everything was rosy: “Eric’s mother, on the other hand, did not see this marriage in a good light, because she wanted him to fulfill himself in his own way, and especially not in the artistic world. She had great ambitions for him and had little taste for acrobats. He was an only child and bore the brunt of his mother’s possessiveness.“, reports the singer, even indulging on the wedding day, where nothing went as planned. “[Sa mère] left in full ceremony. Eric was upset and locked himself in the bathroom. Our wedding night was catastrophic!“, she ended up confiding.
“Eric appeared to me twice“
Guest, a few weeks ago Chez Jordan, on Tele-Losirs.fr, Stone confessed to having been in contact with her ex-husband since his disappearance. The one who is said to be from a family of mediums, revealed: “I had very beautiful messages from Eric Charden in my dream. Because I have many things in my dreams. And Eric appeared to me twice, great. He was telling me : ‘It’s great where I am, you can’t know!’ Really in my dream, I saw him passing in the street and then he said hello to me, very happy and he said to me: ‘Everything is fine, it’s no problem, I’m happy!‘ I love it, it’s strong!“, she had affirmed.
