When they met in 1996 in the play trifle(s), Gwendoline Hamon and Frédéric Diefenthal first forged a close and strong friendly relationship. Interviewed by Paris Match in 2009, the light-eyed actress revealed that she was quickly charmed by the personality of the star of the saga Taxi. However, she did not immediately consider a romantic relationship with him. She confided:Immediately, Fred softened me and I wanted to protect him, kinda like a brother.“
Seven years of reflection
Convinced of having found the woman of his life, Frederic Diefenthal was not necessarily very satisfied with this forced friendly relationship and this status of “brother“. She explained: “He flirted with me first but I was in love with someone else. He didn’t insist and, as we had two adjoining lodges, we became friends. Over the years, we have created a kind of little couple. Friends pushed us to go out together but we continued to live our stories… And then, one evening, seven years later, it happened.” “Seven years of reflection“, added Frédéric Diefenthal with humor.
Subsequently, the lovers passed the ring on their finger in 2004 and had a son Gabriel born the same year. Unfortunately, nine years later, the couple separated. “I feel guilty for being separated from her daddy“, admitted the heroine of the series Cassandraherself the daughter of divorced parents, Gala in 2021 before adding: “Even if it has become the norm now. Fewer and fewer couples manage to stay together for a lifetime. We have one, two, three, four ‘men in her life’. Yet those we once loved will always matter. A kind of guilt persists: ‘Would it have been better if…?’. A separation is never happy or easy, even when it goes very well.”
If Gwendoline Hamon is now in a relationship with a neurologist (whose life she shares…”but not the same apartment“as she recently told the newspaper Release), Frédéric is in love with Stéphanie with whom he had another child born in 2018. Love always finds its way.
