At only 22 years old, Chantal Goya met the man of her life. Invited to the wedding of a friend, she met for the first time a brave fellow named Jean-Jacques Debout. Married since February 25, 1966, the two lovebirds have never left each other. Interviewed by The Parisianthe 80-year-old singer’s husband revealed the secret that helped make their love last and make it stronger than ever: having a separate bedroom!
“As I work at night, I needed a space with my piano. Chantal, on the other hand, goes to bed early. So we got used to living under the same roof, but not in the same room. Finally, we know each other without knowing each other ” he confided. A way to preserve the mystery between the two spouses, parents of Clarisse, now 54 years old, and Jean-Paul, 56 years old. “Rhythm of life, reading, cooking… Chantal and Jean-Jacques have nothing in common, they are incredibly complementary. He writes her songs; she manages the day-to-day“, also adds their friend Thierry Gali. A confusing but very effective trick for lovers who seem to love each other as on the first day.
