It was almost two years ago. January 25, 2022, a few hours after giving an interview to Nikos Aliagas for the show 50 minutes Inside, singer Dave was the victim of a terrible fall from stairs, which led to him being admitted to intensive care for several days. The Dutch septuagenarian’s convalescence lasted several weeks, but today, Dave is better. Proof of this is the ex-juror of France has an unbelievable talent is back with the publication of his memoirs, published by Talent and called How not to be in love with you. On this occasion, Dave returned to the land of the show that made him fall, since he gave an exclusive interview to Isabelle Ithurburu this Saturday October 28, 2023, who succeeded Nikos as host of the celebrity magazine at the start of the school year.
And if in January 2022, those close to the singer had been reassuring and had affirmed that his days were not in danger, Dave today affirms that the reality was quite different… As he revealed to Isabelle Ithurburu, the fall was so severe that doctors requested to his companion David Loiseau to come and visit himbecause they feared for his life: “Come, because we don’t think he’s going to make it through the night.” affirmed the latter to the one who shares the life of the interpreter of Vanina And Near Swann for over fifty years.
He remained amnesiac from the accident and suffered memory aftereffects.
Ultimately, Dave was stronger than medicine, and managed to recover, but keeps still some after-effects of this accident. Twenty months later, the man who will celebrate his 80th birthday next spring is unable to remember the accident, which his loved ones regularly tell him about. The singer has no memory of this fall down the stairs, and kept immediate memory disorder, which causes instantaneous memory loss but fortunately brief and not dangerous. Proof of this is: in the middle of an interview, the singer no longer remembered the writer who co-wrote his memoirs, and got his first name wrong!
