In 1999, the singer Romane Serda met Renaud at the Closerie des Lilas. In the program Chez Jordan, the ex-companion of the artist had mentioned their meeting. “I had an appointment with a director of a record company. He gives me an appointment at the Closerie des Lilas. I come in and there I see two very clear eyes. The guy I’m with said hello and I I’m staying back, I’m waiting for them to say hello”, she explained and added: “They are talking so I’m going to sit in a table at the back and there I’m told that Renaud would like to write to me 12 songs. And there, I don’t understand why they tell me that.”.
After their meeting, the young woman therefore waits for her call for two days. “When I finish my appointment, I leave La Closerie and Renaud says to me ‘I’m calling you’. In fact, he doesn’t call me and then I say to myself ‘what a mouthful’. Two days later, he writes me a fiery email and we start from this principle: write emails and address each other “. A love story which is concretized by a marriage in Las Vegas then in 2005 a union at the town hall of Châteauneuf-de-Bordette in the Drôme. The following year, she gave birth to their first child, a boy named Malone.
Their romance ended in 2011 due to the singer’s alcohol addiction. “His whole being, his moods, his intelligence, his memory, is indexed to the quantity of alcohol which flows through his veins”, wrote Romane Serda in his book A la vie à la mort. An inevitable separation for the one who had the impression of having two children, “one to whom I had to teach everything, another 55 years old who constantly asked that I take care of him, who had a permanent need to be at the center of attention”, she had declared to Paris Match in 2020 and to add: “I understood that, for Malone, for me, we had to separate. He is my family. He knows that I will always be there for him, even if it took him a long time to accept the idea that I had another man in my life”.
In February 2023, Paris Match revealed that singer Renaud had found love with a woman named Christine. It was not until April 30 that the artist mentioned his love situation in the columns of Le Parisien. “Her arrival in my life changed everything. I’m madly in love. She’s been following me for thirty years, but we first met six years ago on a TV set,” he said and d added: “She wore earrings with cherries, unforgettable! That’s why I call her Cherry. We met on May 12, 2022, the day after I turned 70. She had asked for my contact to give me a gift (…) It touched me, we discussed, I invited her to have coffee at home in Paris, then in Provence, then on vacation in Cap-Ferret “.
