Élodie Gossuin has been very lucky in her life. In addition to her professional career and her status as Miss France obtained in 2001, it is above all her children who fill her with happiness on a daily basis. The pretty 40-year-old blonde is the mother of two sets of twins, Jules and Rose (14 years old) and Léonard and Joséphine (8 years old), whom she hosted with her husband Bertrand Lacherie. A family already large, but which could grow?
In an interview given to Current wife, our colleagues asked her if she could have a fifth child. And the former Miss France admitted to having this desire but to come up against Bertrand’s refusal. “We asked ourselves this question with my husband, of course. I asked him several times, but he refuses“, she revealed. A situation that Elodie Gossuin still has a lot of trouble digesting. “I’m starting to mourn maternity, I’m in full therapy. Until last year I said to myself: ‘I am 40 years old, I can very well still do a little last one’. Giving life is so magical“, she confided.
If Bertrand Lacherie is not for his wife to become pregnant again, he would not be against the idea of taking care of a child in need. “We have already asked ourselves the question adopting or welcoming Ukrainian refugees to our country. We filed a case. In France, it remains very blocked at the level of reception in private homes“, said the pretty blonde. And to emphasize: “We offered our house anyway“.
Still, Elodie Gossuin is already busy with her four children, with whom daily life is not always easy. In particular, we had to find a rhythm with Bertrand Lacherie and above all learn to communicate. “Bertrand and I didn’t have to overcome terrible ordeals, but 50% of couples who had twins divorce, and we had two. We have struggled seriously. Our strength has been in remaining best friends with each other. When one was flat, the other took over. I am his shrink, he is mine. It’s kind of my twin to me. He makes me laugh. With time, I learned to respect his silences“, she explained during an interview for Gala.
