To live happily, live hidden: this could describe the love story between Axelle Laffont and the handsome Romain Sichez! Very discreet since the formalization of their couple during the summer of 2021, the couple prefers to live their romance in the shadow of the media. But that didn’t stop them from offering themselves a rare outing for two this Tuesday afternoon: united and accomplices, they indeed attended the matches of the Rolex Paris Masters, a prestigious Parisian tennis tournament.
And especially to those who opposed the former world No. 1 Novak Djokovic and the young Franco-American Maxime Cressy, which logically ended with a narrow victory for the Serb. To the great despair of the couple, and particularly of Romain Sichez, not only present in Paris for the pleasure: for several months now, he mentally coaches the one who made the decision to represent the United States but who did not manage the feat of beating “Nole”, undefeated for two years in Paris.
A small disappointment, therefore, which however did not taint their pleasure of being present and which allowed their fans to see that after more than a year of love, both are still as close despite jobs participants and a big age difference: Axelle Laffont is 52 years old and her beautiful sportsman only 32 ! A detail for the comedian, who had already broached the subject.
Twenty years apart… but a lot of love!
“It’s still shocking for a woman to date a younger man… You just have to see what Brigitte Macron took in the face!“, she had revolted in Madame Figaro in 2018. Before continuing: “Personally, I find it sublime. It gives hope to women, because we are so closeted after 40, or maybe 50, now. While it is precisely at this age that we most want to exist: we are both strong – thanks to a great foundation in life – and ultra-fragile, because of the hardships experienced.“
An experience that had already happened to him with his ex-companion, the former participant of Secret Story Cyril Paglino, 16 years her junior, and whom she adores. “When I separated from the father of my daughter, who for once was older than me [Serge Hazanavicius, ndlr], I was picked up, to my great surprise, by boys under 30 years old. And honestly, it wasn’t at all something that particularly appealed to me. It happens that at some point, you say to yourself, even if it means living experiences, I will also live this one. And one day, I fell in love. It was completely by chance“, she had told. In any case with Romain, the story seems particularly pretty…
