Twenty-seven years after the tragic death of the little boy Conor, the pain of Lory Del Santo and Eric Clapton is still alive and beating. A similar pain, however, also has inevitable links with the memories of an intense but tormented love, as well as a tragedy that ended a life too soon.
It was 1991 when Conor, at just 4 and a half years old, fell from the 53rd floor of a New York skyscraper, ending his short life. A dramatic event that forever marked the lives of Lory and Eric, two people linked by a passionate but never truly stable love.
Despite theirs separation, a deep bond with little Conor remained in the hearts of both of them. A bond that Eric Clapton wanted to immortalize in the moving song “Tears in Heaven”, dedicated to his missing son.
But there is another indelible memory that links Lory to Conor: the last letter that the child wrote to his father. A simple letter, composed of few words but full of infinite love, which still moves us to tears today.
“I love you,” Conor wrote. Three words which contain all the love that the child felt for his father. A love that not even tragedy has managed to extinguish. Extreme simplicity but great bitterness for a love like this.
Lory, moved, remembered this episode a few years ago at Sunday Live. The showgirl had described the moment in which she received the letter, which arrived in London for Conor's funeral. An unexpected, but precious message, which brought some relief to her immense pain.
Conor's last letter is one moving testimony of the love that binds a child to his parents. A love that surpasses every boundary, even that of death. A love that will continue to live forever in the hearts of Lory and Eric.
There pregnancy with Eric Clatpon, it must be underlined, it was not accidental. Unfortunately, a desire for motherhood and to create a family that existed later was shattered by the difficulties of life.
