Under the blue sky of Nice, the funeral of Loana took place. Two weeks after her sudden death at the age of 48, family and friends gathered at the Sainte-Réparate Cathedral in a white and pink floral theme, in accordance with her last wishes. Her mother Violette, accompanied by Gérald, Loana’s brother, was obviously present. It was a “television family”, as Jean-Edouard Lipa and Kenza declined the invitation, but other historical faces from “Loft Story” like Christophe, Julie Mercy, and Steevy Boulay were there. The producer Alexia Laroche-Joubert, who helped fund the funeral, as well as Benjamin Castaldi, were also among the faithful to pay tribute to the memory of the first French reality TV star. But many were absent…
Too few stars at Loana’s funeral? Several of Loana’s close ones made the trip, but what about Laure de Lattre, Cyril Hanouna, Sylvie Ortega, and all the other stars who expressed their distress at her death? Jérèmy Bellet, who was present at the ceremony, highlighted the lack of famous faces at the event in an interview.
Jérèmy Bellet, accused of being an opportunist, defends his friendship with Loana. If the absence of celebrities is being criticized, it’s because some have accused Jérèmy Bellet of trying to attract attention to himself. He expresses surprise that he is one of the few who actually made the effort to attend. “They questioned my intentions. I think she had enough controversy during her life. Even in her death, there are disputes, it’s unfortunate. All her life, she was surrounded by people who were not necessarily sincere,” lamented Bellet. “I’ve lost people before, but this is the first time I’ve been devastated by the loss of a loved one. We supported each other, even from afar. We stood together. Despite what some may say.”
