Axel did not leave M6 viewers indifferent, in Married at first sight 2022. Like his potential wife Caroline, the 30-year-old project manager and pilot loves nature and animals. He lives in the mountains with his two dogs. His physique also made a lot of talk. If during the episodes, we can discover that the woman compatible with him at 80% dwelled rather on his size, some Internet users commented on his big beard, which was however less provided during the marriage. Faced with so many comments, the young man dedicated a publication on the subject.
“A big story?“, is titled his post of this Monday April 4, because he noticed that the different lengths of his beards were intriguing. He indeed first appeared with a beard of 15 centimeters then “cropped cut” For the wedding. “And finally today a short beard“, he added. Changes that are of his own accord. These facial hairs, he has been taking care of them since he was 23 years old. But a sad event came to upset everything, at the beginning of 2021.
“Following a breakup, I withdrew a lot and I was not strong enough to accept my emotions. The disappointment and sadness, mixed with the incomprehension this causes, were too strong and I felt overwhelmed. What followed was an emotional game of hide-and-seek, where I said nothing and let nothing show; or I refused to face reality because I was too weak, even in denial. To continue in this game, to be tough and not want to talk to me, I let my beard grow excessively. It was a new subterfuge to this masquerade, but this time, physical (…) I think thatno one outside my system wanted to meet me and that’s what I wanted“he explained.
It took months for Axel to work on himself. And it was a trek around Beaufortain (in Savoie) that changed his life. “During this crossing, I absolutely dreamed of her every night. And this last night of travel, I said goodbye to him and above all I closed this chapter of my life. My subconscious had decided to open the door because it felt I was strong enough for this battle. And basically, thank you! Because I could not arrive at the marriage by not having let go of my stick, I would have voluntarily withdrawn if that had been the case, because no one must endure demons harmful to a relationship starting on good foundations“, he recalled.
On his return, Axel made the decision to cut his beard a little. But he him”there remained a part of shadow to be lifted, a mask to be removed, an appearance to be overcome“. The young man had to be able to trust another woman again.”Today I have a beard that matches my state of mind“, he said. Through this publication, he wanted to make it clear that it sometimes takes time to overcome a test and that sometimes an appearance can hide a much deeper message than a simple trend.
