Already two years since Delphine Wespiser formalized her relationship with Roger, 26 years her senior. A relationship that the ex-Miss France, now a columnist for Cyril Hanouna in Do not touch My TV (C8) had a hard time coping, both with those close to him and with strangers. Asked about the subject in the podcast tv women for Entertainment TVshe opens up without taboo on the subject.
“It was difficult to take“, then indicates the young woman. And to continue: “My friends didn’t really take it well, they knew him because he’s the boss of a nightclub. Basically, we all went out there. They could see that eventually I was going to drink more and more coffees with him. People asked me ‘what do you do with him all the time?’ (Laughs).“Finally, her friends understood what was going on between them. And that even if Delphine Wespiser was careful to hide.”For a very long time when we first started dating, I absolutely didn’t want it to be official. Even with him, I told him ‘we don’t really go out together’. I never gave her my hand does she remember. It took me a year to shake hands with him in public. I shook his hand in public and when someone passed I let go of his hand. It’s hurtful to the person. We say to ourselves ‘if we love each other, have the courage to make it official’.“
It was above all the reaction of her parents that she dreaded, Roger being twice her age. “When I told my parents, my mother had picked up. She asked me how old he was. I was 24, and Roger didn’t look his age, she confides. My mother thought he was 40. I told him that he was actually 50 years old. So 26 years apart. It’s like that. It took time in my family. Everyone sees that I have hatched, even physically. Roger is my guardian angel. I don’t even know where I would be or what I would do without him.“
Today, Delphine Wespiser and Roger are happier and more fulfilled than ever. “You don’t choose when two soul mates meet, we don’t choose the age. So, yes it may look weird on paper. Even there when we say 26 years apart, I tell myself it’s abused but you see us together, there is no problem. You have lunch with us, we don’t see that anymore. I find it so interesting when souls connect, it surpasses everything“, she assures. In short, the couple spins the perfect love and that’s all that matters!
