At just 16 years old on “The Voice,” Louane immediately captivated the audience with her voice, sensitivity, and naturalness. Quickly, everything accelerated for her. The cinema joined her journey with “La Famille Bélier,” and success never left her side. This role offered by Eric Lartigau earned her the César for Best Female Newcomer in 2015. But behind this meteoric trajectory, there is a young woman who grew up too fast. An artist who learned to move forward with her wounds, never hiding them.
Louane marked by the death of her parents Louane’s story is also one of a tragedy that occurred much too early. When she was just 16 years old, her parents fell ill a year apart. Her father, Jean-Pierre, died in 2013, right in the middle of his daughter’s participation on “The Voice.” He never saw the young singer’s rapid rise to fame. A year later, her mother Isabel also passed away. A double grief that hit her hard. “My parents fell ill a year apart, they were young, I was barely 15-16 years old,” she confessed to Psychologies Magazine. Over time, Louane learned to put words to this ordeal: “I was born sad… Today, I’m doing much better.”
Who is Florian Rossi, Louane’s partner and father of her daughter? If there is one meeting that changed everything for the singer, it is the one with Florian Rossi. The two artists crossed paths in 2018, during a tour. Quickly, the evidence struck. “We met during my second tour and fell in love. It’s really super basic,” she revealed to Télé-Loisirs. Trained as a musician at the Nîmes Conservatory, Florian Rossi has been in this universe for years. A former member of the group LANES, he made a name for himself by collaborating with artists like Stromae, Kendji Girac, and Aya Nakamura. Despite being discreet, he shared more than just his personal life with Louane. Since then, he is everywhere, without seeking the spotlight. The duo got engaged in November 2024 and celebrated this moment during a beautiful evening with friends in June 2025.
Louane is a mother: who is her daughter Esmée and what family life does she lead? In 2020, the couple’s life took on a new dimension with the birth of their daughter Esmée. While she remains discreet, Louane sometimes shares a few confidences. In an interview with Gala, she amusingly recounted Esmée’s overwhelming passion for Disney. “She is obsessed with Rapunzel,” she revealed, even explaining that she hasn’t been able to cut her hair for a year because of her favorite heroine. Beyond these anecdotes, one thing is clear, music is already a part of the little girl’s life. Esmée has grown up surrounded by melodies, even participating in studio sessions with her parents. “She tells my guy what she wants him to add to the production,” Louane shared, amused. It’s obvious to the singer, her daughter “has it in her blood”! A true family of artists.
