They are releasing “Influence(s)”, a new documentary series from Prime Video together, and Diego El Glaoui and Iris Mittenaere have agreed to give an interview as a duo to Paris Match, this February 29, 2024. The couple looks back on the beginnings of their romance , and scratch Madame’s exes in the process!
“Boys who were around him for the wrong reasons”
They met in 2019, when Iris Mittenaere was starting a new life, after having been Miss France and Miss Universe. She wasn’t yet the influencer she is today. His darling, Diego El Glaoui admits that he knew nothing about it and that he was not really impressed by this course. But the one who finally managed to steal her heart admits to our colleagues: “Above all, it was necessary to gain the trust of Iris who, with this title, was wary of boys who were around her for the wrong reasons.”
And after being crowned the most beautiful woman in France and the Universe, an adventure which took her to New York for a year, it must be said that Iris Mittenaere had a few suitors, more or less famous. We of course think of the actor and comedian Kev Adams, but also of the professional footballer Hatem Ben Arfa, as well as Anthony Colette, the dancer who accompanied him in Dancing with the Stars…
“In the eyes of some, I was like a “trophy”“
But it is surely the first that Iris Mittenaere is referring to when she explains for her part:In the eyes of some, I was like a “trophy” that you have to hang on your hunting board.”. And to rejoice at having found the right one, describing: “That wasn’t the case with Diego and that’s what attracted me: I felt that he was straight, hard-working and trustworthy“.
