VIDEO Maja Šuput Shares Heartbreaking Confession About Losing Her Father: 'I Couldn't Watch It, It Was Horrible'

In a deeply personal revelation on the podcast 'Nema labavo by IN magazin,' popular Croatian singer Maja Šuput opened up about the profound grief and enduring impact of losing her father, Boris Šuput. Her father, who was her greatest supporter, suffered a severe traffic accident in late December 2002, from which he never fully recovered. He passed away 16 years later, following a long and arduous illness.

“

I could barely cope while he was alive; I couldn't watch it, it was terribly difficult. Terribly.

Šuput recounted the immense emotional toll of watching her father's health decline. "I could barely cope while he was alive; I couldn't watch it, it was terribly difficult. Terribly," she shared, revealing the depth of her pain. The singer admitted that for a year or two after his death, she was unable to visit his grave, highlighting the raw and overwhelming nature of her bereavement. She also shared past tributes to her father, including birthday messages and photos posted on social media, underscoring his continued presence in her life and career.

When dad died, I think for a year or two I couldn't go to the cemetery anymore.

Reflecting on the period leading up to his death in late 2018, Šuput described it as an 'abnormal' and incredibly challenging time. For the last three years of his life, her father was bedridden and unable to speak. She expressed that witnessing such prolonged suffering was far worse than the suddenness of an accident, finding solace only in the belief that he was no longer in pain. The singer also shared the difficult circumstances of her own life during that period, including breaking her leg and continuing to work through the pain and grief. Despite the immense personal hardship, she found solace and a way to cope through her work. Šuput also noted the touching resemblance fans often see between her six-month-old son, Bloom, and his late grandfather, Boris, particularly in their smiles and eyes, a connection that brings her comfort.

My father had been abnormally ill for the last 16 years, and in the last three, he couldn't move or speak. It's much worse, believe me, to watch someone in such a state.
