The shock was more than trying for Lou Doillon. The youngest of Jane Birkin looked genuinely devastated at her mother’s funeral, July 24. Eight days earlier, the 76-year-old actress and singer had been found lifeless home by a carer. If Lou Doillon was upset, her sister Charlotte Gainsbourg, her nephews, Roman de Kermadec, the son of Kate Barry, her other sister, who died in 2013, and Ben Attal, her nieces, Alice and Joe Attal and her children, Marlowe and Laszlo , were equally so.
More than a month after the death of the former companion of Serge Gainsbourg and Jacques Doillon, Lou Doillon wanted to pay tribute to his mother. This Saturday, August 26, she posted on Instagram, in story, a beautiful black and white photo of her illustrious mother and herself. On the picture, Lou Doillon is still only a very small girl. She’s sitting on Jane Birkin, who is herself sitting on the ground. If the child with long hair with the side parting is looking at the camera, her mother is staring into the distance, but seems comfortable with her daughter perched on her legs.

The importance of family for Lou Doillon
Ten days after the death of Jane Birkin, Lou Doillon had posted, still on Instagram, a moving message to his mother, accompanied by beautiful photos, on the day of the first birthday of his youngest son. After a heartbreaking “maman” and a black heart emoji, the singer continued: “There are Jacques’ love letters [Doillon, ndlr], wrapped in a red ribbon that I found near your bed. IThere’s your word next to mine, ‘My Lou sentinel’. You were the one who put everyone before you, and sometimes before us.” She went on to reveal thatshe was with “Charlotte and Roman” the day before, “close [d’elle] one last time”. Then, she thanked the one who raised her: “Mom, thank you for all these adventures, thank you for not being ordinary, reasonable and docile. All this world of tomorrow, very peaceful and reasoned, is already annoying me…” The youngest of the tribe concluded her tribute with a thought for her son: “And there’s your little Laszlo who is 1 today.” A nice way to look to the future. This Saturday, August 26, she paid a new tribute to this extraordinary mother whom she loved so much.
