Fayrouz‘s daughter Reema Rahbani shared a new photo for the legendary Fayrouz, taken a few days ago, on Facebook.
The photo depicted Fayrouz setting nearby a small table and checking a rose vase.
A few months ago, the singer's daughter shared more details of Macron’s visit to Fayrouz in an interview with Lebanese newspaper Al Nahar.
The icon was awarded the highest national French merit, the “Legion of Honor.” Also, the French president Macron visited her.
Rahbani revealed, “We received the news of Macron’s visit with mixed feelings of caution and welcoming.” This visit meant a lot to Lebanon as it meant to her. It got Lebanon’s dignity and spirit back.
She added that they were somehow concerned with this visit as it came after the tragic Beirut explosion and amid the COVID-19 second wave.
Regarding the topics of the discussion between Macron and Fayrouz, she explained, “the meeting was great and spontaneous. I felt that we were talking to a friend.”
She added, “We preferred to keep the conversation between Fayrouz and Macron hidden in our home. Macron is a smart man and he understood Fayrouz’s world and her life. Also, he respected our privacy concerns.”
Furthermore, Rahbani underscored that Macron’s visit was, to Fayrouz, as a Lebanese icon more than a singer.
Macron revealed to the press after his meeting with Fayrouz, “I told her everything that she represented to me, of a Lebanon that we love and that many are expectant of, a nostalgia that many have.”
After the visit, the Lebanese channel T. Lebanon aired rare footage of Fayrouz’s concert in Paris.
