A financial agreement and we forget everything. No, no, no… Laura Smet, in an interview with RTL, reacted to an interview with Laeticia Hallyday in Paris Match . By “hallydayien” media interposed, the daughter and the wife of Johnny Hallyday therefore continue to say all the evil they think of each other.

While a financial agreement made it possible to avoid a lawsuit around the question of inheritance, Laeticia Hallyday explained, by and large, that she wanted to "move forward" and hoped to be able to "hug" Laura Smet and David Hallyday. But at the same time, she regrets that for lack of "empathy and compassion", it was necessary to display in the public square their differences before arriving at an agreement.

"There will never be peace possible"

Laura Smet has a whole different version of the story. She explains that she made "several attempts to get in touch with Laeticia and her advisers" after the death of her father. She also criticizes Laeticia Hallyday for having prevented her from seeing her father in the last years of her life and for having hidden her state of health from him: “There will never be any peace possible. She stopped us from saying goodbye to him (…) He didn't know he was in palliative care. My father didn't know he was going to die. "

The daughter of Johnny Hallyday nevertheless agreed to a financial agreement on the question of inheritance. Laeticia Hallyday says that it is "mostly debts" but agreed to pay a nice sum (not communicated) to Laura Smet to remain a decision-maker on the management of the artistic heritage of Johnny Hallyday. Pregnant, Laura Smet explains that she wants to “move on”: “I want to be serene. I don't want to fight longer than that. Despite everything, she will continue to watch over the "moral" issue of managing her father's work: "I don't want my father to become an attraction at EuroDisney".
