He went through a difficult time, and Claudio Capéo confided about it, this November 4, 2023, to Isabelle Ithurburu. The journalist, who has just arrived on TF1, took over Nikos Aliagas’ show, “50 minutes inside“. And for one of her first numbers, she decided to tackle the theme of burn-out, with the singer of “If I had known“.
“I honestly don’t remember his face”
The latter says that it happened to him “almost two years after the success”. He remembers “That’s when it really starts to get worse, it’s after the tour, I hardly come home anymore, when I learn that my son has taken his first steps. It’s at the point where I don’t remember his face, really“. An alarming observation, and Claudio Capéo does not know how to react…
In the process, he observes: “It’s in the extreme, but I don’t remember anything, and then I feel like a grain of sand flying away that loses consciousness and even I don’t know what I’m doing anymore . And then I’m tired, I’m exhausted, I don’t realize it, I don’t realize that in fact I have no more breath and I can no longer remember any first name, it’s weird. And then it falls and I lock myself away and then I tell myself that in fact I want to let go of everything, it’s too much, it’s over.”
Now out of the woods, Claudio Capéo wants to get rid of this syndrome of omerta. Regarding the silence which surrounds this uneasiness he assures: “I feel like it’s less and less true” and comments: “we want to show that we are strong that we can do anything, but no, we are just humans in fact, we have the right to cry, to mope, to fall into the arms of one or another other, to say your feelings, to tell truths, they are good to hear“.
“Life is beautiful”
Today, fortunately, everything is going smoothly with his sweetheart, Aurélie Willgallis, and their children, Roméo and César. Faced with Isabelle Ithurburu, the singer had difficulty hiding his joy. With tremors in his voice, he rejoiced: “but it’s going really well, we’re on a tour which is exceptional, we released an album that we love from the bottom of our hearts, my parents love me more than ever, my friends, my wife, my children, the life is Beautiful”.
