His daughter Ali, born from a previous union with the director Mabrouk El Mechri, is 10 years old, and his son, Hiro, born from his love affair with the actor Niels Schneider, was born last August. As the end-of-year holidays approach, Virginie Efira would really like “reproduce” the traditions of her childhood for Christmas, with her daughter and her little boy, as she explains this December 21, 2023 to ELLE magazine.
“Wallowing in front of Michel Drucker’s broadcasts“
The star of “Everything is fine” on Disney+ which estimates regarding the evening of December 31 that it “You shouldn’t put too much expectation into this evening, rather let yourself slide, it’s the best way for it to end happily.”, has an idea in mind regarding the 25th! With our colleagues, she remembers: “On Christmas night, I loved wallowing in front of Michel Drucker shows, lulled by the tumult of family meals in the background.”.
And added: “I was a conformist and venal child, so I looked forward to getting presents! In Belgium, we especially celebrated Saint-Nicolas, on December 6. The night before going to bed, we left him a few glasses of alcohol to warm him up. I learned later that it was my father who took pleasure in emptying them…”
“A Christmas movie, every night“
That’s why since the beginning of December, the lovely blonde has completely given in to “the nice dictatorship of children“, she says! Tenderly, the actress says: “I love that my 10-year-old daughter watches a Christmas film, every evening where there are more fir trees and garlands than houses! This atmosphere takes me back to my childhood memories in Belgium where we felt that the harshness of winter would be compensated by the warmth of this atmosphere. We love it too!
