EXCLUSIVE. Best friends Bart Kaëll, Luc Appermont and Marie-Jeanne: “Our friendship has become more intense since Willy’s death”

For Luc Appermont (76) and Bart Kaëll (65) he was their best friend. For Marie-Jeanne Huysman (75), her great love. After we had to say goodbye to top entrepreneur Willy Naessens (86) this year, the three look back on that loss. How it changed their friendship and how the widow finds her way. “I cut out everything that was written about Willy and kept it in a basket,” says Marie-Jeanne. “Sometimes I read it, but then I get tears again. He was so loved.”
