Between Mélanie Thierry and the cinema, it’s a great love story. The 40-year-old actress had a difficult start before asserting herself in the family of the 7th art: “For a long time, I was the eternal number two, the one who is not chosen in the final stretch of a casting. I wondered what was wrong. I was 20 years old, and no doubt I only had my freshness, my prettiness, to offer. Maturity feeds you things to tell. And recently, I finally have the impression that I take my place“, she says in an interview with Telerama.
Precisely, Mélanie Thierry has the power to no longer have to say ‘yes’ to each scenario slipped into her mailbox. And that, she owes in large part to her companion Raphaël thanks to whom she pursues her career without money level pressure: “I’ll be honest: I’m lucky to live with a husband who, financially, allows me not to work to work, and encourages me to decline projects that do not make me vibrate (…) In time, I may be tracing the right drawing.“
Mélanie Thierry and Raphaël are one of the rare couples to last in show business. Together since 2002, they became parents to Aliocha and Roman in 2008 and 2013. Despite their celebrity, family life with the Thierry-Haroches resembles that of everyone. During the confinement, they had also offered Internet users a glimpse of their daily life confined with two children. While the singer Raphaël was starting a live Facebook on guitar, Mélanie Thierry passed by, grumbling in passing about her companion who had nothing to do in the kitchen because she had to “to eat“.
Despite this public and spontaneous spat, Mélanie Thierry and Raphaël have always been able to count on each other. The actress spoke about their couple in an interview for Madame Figaro last September:I spent as much time with him as with my parents. (…) We supported each other, and we are still happy together. We laugh and our daily life is without heaviness. I need to have admiration for the people I love. I admire my boyfriend and my children“. The secret of their longevity!
