Youn invested in a luxury hotel in Paris, which he put on the market after reconciling with Isabelle Funaro. The couple resides in the South of France, enjoying a quieter life with their two children.
In the early 2000s, Michaël Youn rose to fame as the charismatic host of Morning Live on M6 until 2002. Following this success, he transitioned into acting and appeared in various films including La Beuze (2003), Les Onze Commandements (2004), Iznogoud (2005), Incontrôlable (2006), and Coursier (2010). Notably, 2010 marked his directorial debut with the film Fatal, which caught significant attention, followed by Vive la France in 2013.

Michaël Youn’s Stunning Private Hotel for Sale in Paris
In the 2000s, Michaël Youn made a remarkable investment in a beautiful private hotel nestled in an upscale neighborhood in the 17th arrondissement of Paris. Following his separation from Isabelle Funaro in 2017 (from whom he has since reconciled), reports surfaced in 2022 indicating that the actor had placed this exquisite property on the market. However, it remains unclear whether a buyer has been found. This property, though shrouded in mystery, garnered media attention back in 2010 due to an unfortunate burglary incident.
During that incident, it was reported that intruders managed to force their way into Michaël Youn’s home, stealing numerous valuable items. The haul included high-end watches, such as three Rolexes, along with jewelry, luxury handbags, haute couture dresses, and a computer. The estimated value of this stolen collection was a staggering 80,000 euros.
Where Are Michaël Youn and Isabelle Funaro Residing Now?
Despite their separation in 2017, Michaël Youn and Isabelle Funaro quickly rekindled their relationship. Together since 2008, the couple shares two children: Seven, born in 2011, now 13 years old, and Stellar, who is 5. Initially residing in Paris, it appears that the family has since relocated to the South of France. In a candid interview on C à vous, Youn disclosed that he now lives “in the countryside, in the south of France.”
He humorously remarked, “I won’t disclose the location because burglaries happen,” but did share that “There are fields, tractors, I have real toilets, and I cultivate my vegetable garden, growing my own tomatoes and radishes.” Michaël expressed his gratitude for being able to make such a move, stating, “It’s easy, as our careers allow us to relocate. Many French people are tied to their jobs and have no options.” Thus, Michaël Youn enjoys the serene countryside and the sunny climate of the South with his family, and whenever duty calls, he finds accommodations in a hotel during filming.
