They have loved each other since 2002 and have two boys together: Roman born in 2008 and Alyocha born in 2013. Singer Raphaël and his wife, actress Mélanie Thierry, decided to expand the family this year. The couple are now expecting their third child. And while the mother’s belly gets rounder over the months, the father confided in our colleagues at Marie Claire, this February 1, 2024.
The look of “his children on the day they were born”
Regarding fatherhood, he assures us that the most beautiful look we have had on him is “that of his children on the day of their birth”. And to add: “It’s the most moving look I’ve seen in my entire life, by far”. It’s easy to understand why he’s doing it again, especially since his eldest is already very big. Recently, he ordered him “Nike Jordan size 45” and wonders “what he will wear in three years!“
As he prepares to welcome a little baby, our colleagues also asked him what he could wish for him. And Raphaël responded poetically: “The ability to play the piano like Hélène Grimaud, to play tennis like Roger Federer and to have a good heart. Kindness is the most beautiful of qualities.”
“My parents gave it to me after losing a child”
As for the first name that he will choose with Mélanie Thierry for this child, if for the moment, Raphaël has not revealed anything, we know that it will have a beautiful meaning. And for good reason, Raphaël himself says about his first name: “it means ‘God heals’, and my surname, Haroche, means ‘the head’. So, in summary, my name is ‘God Heals the Head'”. And to reveal that “This first name was not chosen by chance” since his parents gave it to him.”gave after losing a child“…
