According to Closer, the couple’s meeting goes back more than 60 years ago. Indeed, the singer, who is then in a relationship with his ex-husband guitarist Yorgos Petsilas, with whom she will have two children, Nicolas and Hélène Petsilas, will meet André Chapelle. 

Mouskouri will divorce her husband in 1975 when she was 32 years old. Not long after that, she started a relationship with her record producer André Chapelle. The two love birds did not walk down the aisle then because she “didn’t want to bring another father into the family” and divorce was against her conservative upbringing.

 “We got married in 2003, at the insistence of Jean-Claude Brialy, my great friend and witness. With André, we have known each other since 1964, he became my producer”, she says, and live primarily in Switzerland.

Confidences with an open heart for the one who can still count today on the unfailing support of her husband. Nana and her husband hope to be able to celebrate love for a long time to come.

She said: “I dealt with it very simply, because as I was selling records we were already talking about writing and releasing another record that had to be better than the one before. Staying true to our taste, so that our audience would not lose its trust in us. We did not want to go overboard or whatever and that’s how we kept on. My husband, thankfully, who I met when he was very young, is in the industry, he is my producer, and he kept me in check saying ‘be careful not to be carried away because there are many things that could take you off course‘”.
