Sylvie Ortega’s Tender Tribute to Loana:
Some stars chose not to attend Loana’s funeral, such as Jean-Edouard Lipa and Kenza Braïga. Sylvie Ortega, whose relationship with Loana was tumultuous, also announced that she would not be going to Nice. “I refuse to witness a funeral turning into a spectacle of hypocrisy, settling scores, and voyeurism,” she said a few days ago.
Despite this, Sylvie Ortega expressed a heartfelt message for her friend on Instagram: “We were opposites… this inexplicably strong bond we had will stay with me.. You have left a lasting impact on me. Goodbye lolo. I love you,” she wrote alongside several emojis, sharing a carousel of photos of Loana.
Loana and Sylvie Ortega: What Were Their Relationships?
Sylvie Ortega was long part of Loana’s circle. However, the star’s close ones did not always view their relationship favorably. Sylvie Ortega was accused of providing drugs to Loana and later accused of stealing jewelry from her friend.
“When lies catch up with you!! This girl accused me in front of the entire France of stealing her rose-shaped jewel! TV sets and internet users were ready to believe. Look at what she was wearing around her neck two days ago. Her talent? Manipulation and mythomania. Hide forever!” defended Ludovic Chancel’s widow. Despite the controversies, the bond between the two women was never truly severed until death separated them.
