Lolita Séchan Unveils Intimate Renaud Retrospective for His 50-Year Career

Her account emphasizes sobriety alongside a family decision to preserve his autonomy.

Overview

  • The forthcoming book, co-authored with journalist Erwan L'Éléouet and published by Éditions de La Martinière, is slated for October 10 and compiles archives and private letters.
  • Séchan, now her father's official manager and agent, presents the project as part of actively stewarding his legacy.
  • She says the work names long-avoided family issues and Renaud's paranoia to illuminate his sensitivity and complexity.
  • She reports he has stopped smoking and drinking, now compensating with sugar and vaping, following a slight stroke and ongoing physical rehabilitation supported by regular exercise.
  • She recounts that guardianship was once discussed during crises but the family rejected it to protect his liberty, emphasizing that he continues to decide for himself.
