Embodying the great Simone Veil was a very risky bet but Cristiana Reali takes it up handily. The 56-year-old actress takes on the role of one who owes the law on voluntary termination of pregnancy, which bears her name, at the Antoine theater (Paris). She excels in the play Simone Veil: The fights of a brazen, which she came to talk about on Saturday, October 24, 2021 in We are live, on France 2.
Impressed by the performance of Cristiana Reali, Léa Salamé launched into a question about the daughters of the actress, Elisa and Toscane, born in 1998 and 2003 from her past relationship with Francis Huster. “Have they seen the show? Do they know that it is she (Simon Veil editor’s note) who makes the law on abortion?“, wanted to know the journalist and partner of Laurent Ruquier in We are live. “But of course, replied Cristiana Reali before sharing some secrets about one of his two daughters, Elisa, the eldest.”Young people today are very feminists, it’s really very committed. My big girl … I really can’t say anything, it’s really I’m a poor asshole. She said to me: ‘You’re not going to say that on TV, it’s catastrophic’“, recounted Cristiana Reali, proud that her daughter is thus interested in social issues and that she wants people to say that women continue to fight for their rights, even if Simone Veil has had a decisive role.
It is quite rare that Cristiana Reali evokes her daughters, just like her ex-companion Francis Huster, with whom she has remained very close. We remember that in July 2020, the actor had confessed to being “in love” with his daughters during an interview with France Sunday. “I am a completely mad dad in love with his daughters! They are very different, I think that one will take the artistic path and the other, scientific. In any case, they will do a job that leads them to build something for others. My daughters are the treasure of my life. And they are very beautiful … but that is thanks to their mother! “, he had declared, with infinite tenderness.
